    The question is asking about the election of 2008, and specifically why was historically significant for women, in 2008 Barack Obama won, but his major Democratic opponent was Hillary Clinton - a woman. The republican candidate for Vice-President was Sarah Palin, also a woman (not the first female candidate for a vice-president though). So the correct answer is: A) one woman ran for president and one ran for vice president.
