In Pictures: Hillary Clinton Through the Years by Dorian Jones Hillary Clinton made history this year, overcoming personal and political setbacks, to become the first woman to win the presidential nomination of a major U.S. political party. If she wins in November, she will go from first lady to former U.S. Senator from New York and former Secretary of State, to "Madam President."
