Please, allow me to relish echoing these words: "In the world ranking of women in national legislative office, the U.S. holds the embarrassing position of 71. The U.S. is below Iraq in this statistic."

This is a story to follow closely and to observe what "sub-variables" prevail. My late husband used to assert, "You get the leadership you deserve" meaning, the electorship/follwership decides. Thanks for the good news. I see the world as a giant fractal and this victory in Mexico will ripple across the globe.

What a good metric for national success: "the percentage of women holding national office!" Yes, ranking 71st puts a lot in perspective.
