One of my idols passed away today, former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, or Baroness Thatcher as she was more recently known. She was 87 years old and hadn't been seen publicly for some time because of health reasons. I didn't always agree with her politics but I thought she was one hell of a woman.

The first female prime minister of England, Margaret Thatcher, has passed away due to a stroke. She was 87 years old.

Geraldine Anne Ferraro (August 26, 1935 – March 26, 2011) was an American attorney, a Democratic Party politician and a member of the United States House of Representatives. She was the first female Vice Presidential candidate representing a major American political party.

The first woman to ever run for vice president on a major party ticket in 1984, Geraldine Ferraro died Saturday. She was 75.
