But I do not think it is time yet for a woman to be leading the most powerful country in the world unless there is someone who is capable of the job. Sarah Palin would be a very dangerous person to have running your country. The world does not respect her at all.
The day Russia has a woman President, will be the day US is led by a woman President. Women who have lead countries in the past have not done a very good job in power.

Have you ever heard about Angela Merkel or Margaret Thatcher ?
Ok that wasn't most powerfull countries in the world but somewhere around places 4-8 ;)
I bet Argentinians in 1980s were thinking that weak female prime minister is not going to do anything against them :D

From what i can tell... the domestic opinion on Margaret Thatcher greatly varies from international opinion.
In general the english people i've talked to seem to range from "Dislike" to "Hate".
Even though she's thought of well internationally.

That's nowhere near suprising considering how conservatist she was and how many unpopular decisions she made that needed to be done.
