The Power of Women.

About 15 years ago, Women Are Wonderful manufactured a T-shirt with the message "Someday a woman will be PRESIDENT". Women's organizations bought the T-shirts for children and adults and made
money selling them. One Wal-Mart store in Miramar, Florida bought the T-shirt because the manager of the store had a twelve-year old daughter and he said, "Bring me six dozen. My daughter would love this T-shirt."

The T-shirt sold like hot cakes and the one Wal-Mart store now ordered eight dozen of them. The manager said he was happy to give a local woman, Dr. Ann Moliver Ruben, President of Women Are Wonderful, a break. That all changed when a Miami Herald reporter came to interview Dr. Ruben and called the national Wal-Mart office to ask if they were going to buy the T-shirt for other Wal-Mart stores. The answer was No. The reporter was told that T-shirt was political and was against Wal-Mart's policy of family values. They BANNED the sale of the T-shirt.

Dr. Ruben gave this story to Associated Press and women all over this country marched to protest Wal-Mart's decision. After ten days went by, Wal-Mart apologized and bought 50,000 T-shirts.

One woman, Dr. Ann Moliver Ruben, plus thousands of other women showed the world the power of women.
