Today is a happy day and women across the world should celebrate as Hillary Clinton has accepted President Elect Obama's offer to become his Secretary of State.
Reuters reports that the Democratic Party leadership has confirmed that Clinton is on track to be nominated, with an official announcement to be made after the observation of Thanksgiving on November 27th.
If approved for this position, Clinton will be only the third woman in the history of the United States to hold the office of the top diplomat for The United States, the first being Madeleine Albright who was nominated to the position by Clinton's spouse, former President Bill Clinton, in 1997.
