'''Ellen McCormack''' was the first woman candidate for president who received [[Secret Service]] protection and federal matching funds. She ran for the Democratic nomination in 1976 on a pro-life platform. [[Jimmy Carter]], who has also spoke out against [[abortion]] <ref>[http://sciencenotes.wordpress.com/2008/10/20/jimmy-carter-on-abortion/ "Jimmy Carter on abortion", ''Science Notes'']</ref>, won the nomination and the presidency that year.
In 1980, Mrs. McCormack ran for president again as the nominee for the Right to Life Party.
