7 GOP Women Cosmo Excluded in Potential First Female President List
3. Nikki Haley
Nikki Haley accomplished a major milestone in November 2010, when she became the first female and first Indian-American governor of South Carolina.
"The fact that I happen to be an Indian female, of course that brings a new dynamic," she told Newsweek months before the 2010 election.
"But what I hope it does is cause a conversation in this state where we no longer live by layers, but we live by philosophies."
Haley also gave the Republican response to President Barack Obama's 2016 State of the Union address and presently Haley serves as the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations.
