Not so long ago, the idea that women might rule the world seemed slightly ridiculous - like something out of science fiction. But in an essay to mark International Women's Day, political analyst and former White House press secretary Dee Dee Myers argues it's now a topic that can be seriously discussed.  

 

In the BBC News Magazine Dee Dee Myers has an excellent piece (dated March 7 entitled Viewpoint: What If Women Ruled the World?   Forgive me for not giving you a link to this; my laptop is hiding the browser window.  I need technical remediation at the moment to find it.  However, knowing you're all intelligent AND smart, I believe you can find it online in an instant.   An excellent way to honor International Women's Day.  

 

If women ruled the world, we all know it would be a better place.  Here's to the women!
