Women Presidential Candidates - United States

Hillary Clinton in her 2008 run for the Democratic nomination for US President came the closest so far that any woman has come to winning the nomination of a major political party in the United States. But Clinton is not the first woman to run for United States President, and not even the first to run for a major party's nomination. Here's a list of the female presidential candidates I've been able to discover, arranged chronologically by each woman's first campaign for the office.
