Both Democratic candidates for president signaled at Sunday's debate that they would have a woman on the ticket if they became the nominee.
while Sen. Bernie Sanders said"in all likelihood" he would also choose a female vice presidential candidate if he's the nominee.
Sanders said,"For me it's not just nominating a woman, it's making sure we have a progressive woman. And there are progressive women out there. So, my very strong tendency is to move in that direction." The only women vice presidential candidates to be on a major-party ticket are Rep. Geraldine Ferraro in 1984 and Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin in 2008. Ferraro ran with Walter Mondale for the Democrats and Palin ran with John McCain for the Republicans. No woman has ever been elected vice president or president.
