To date, there has not been a female president. There have been numerous nominees. Below are all the nominees for the Presidency:
It is very interesting to see that female nominees for the Presidency dates back as far as 1872. Unfortunately though, women have not had much luck at the polls and historically have not gained many votes. In recent years, women have done slightly better, most recently, Cynthia McKinney gaining 150,061 votes. However, Barack Obama received 66, 117, 432 popular votes in 2008, illustrating how little of the vote Cynthia McKinney actually received and how far away the US is from having a female president.
