According to an article in The Atlantic dated November 1, 2016, predictions of a women president (or presidentess) started even before women had the vote. A 1910 headline in the ''Meade County News, a Kansas newspaper stated: | |||
:'''Mere Man Faces Danger of a Woman Being President of the United States | |||
A newspaper advertisement in 1892 predicted that by 1992, a 100 years later, perhaps the first woman would be inaugurated as president. And in 1928, a Los Angeles Times article humorously predicted that by the year 1975, ''"there will doubtless be a lady President of the Uniteds Sates with a lady Cabinet and a lady Senate."'' | |||
When William Branham predicted that a woman would be president of the United States at some unknown time in the future, he was not the first to make such a prediction. | |||
