Before Saul was crowned as the first king of Israel, that nation was ruled by judges. One of the judges mentioned was a woman named Deborah.
But somehow I doubt that Hillary has the same calling as Deborah.

The bible mentions women in important counsel positions (Deborah the Judge) and the Queen of Sheba (Ethiopian Queen)..but as a ruler over all the nation...no there is no precident in the bible for it that I know of.
In fact, the idea of a woman leading is often warned about, as in the case of Queen Jezebel, King Ahab's wife.

Yes, a woman can lead. Read the story of Deborah in Judges 4

What does the Bible have to do with leading our nation? That's why the founders specified seperation of church and state. The Bible was written by men for men as a tool for power.

Where's your citation? Where exactly does the Bible say this? In the Old Testament? In the New Testament? Prove it.

Who cares what the bible says about leading our nation. That is why we have this little constitutional thing called seperation of church and state.

I have to ask the obvious...which Nation are you talking about? You do realize that there are people from many Nations on the internet, right?
