A win could make Hillary the first female president in the US, and probably one of the first presidential spouse wins in a democratic country. Just two days ago, Senator Barack Obama entered the race in a quest to become the first black president. Clinton and Obama are the two main contenders, although Hillary Clinton is likely the front runner.
