There are certainly several other Countries who have had female leaders, even if they've not been President. Not all countries have the power vested in the Head of State.
Countries that have had female leaders include...
Britain
Germany (present)
Canada
Ireland currently has a female President, although the power is vested in the Taoiseach.
I'm sure there are more.

New Zealand was (I think) the first country to have a woman running the government (Prime Minister). If that's wrong, I'm pretty sure they have a female PM now. But I know they were definitely the first to give women the vote! (Australia second!!)

The president of India has no powers it is a Stamping Machine, in the case of this pupet she will be a stamping press for her master "Sonia Gandhi".
So there is no reason to feel that proud. This person has somany skeletons in her closet that the closet stinks.
