<p>I'm not certain that reality T.V. is as trashy as the political scene right now, but I do believe there is a certain sanctity to the office of the President. I wonder which spouse has the more difficult job.</p>

<p>That's not what <em>I</em> meant. Ms's Clinton and Bush did what they did for their own reasons, which had more to do with their personal relationships with their husbands than they did national issues. (After all, it wasn't Hillary and Laura, who leapt to make political hay out of their spouse's failures.)</p>

<p>I gather this means that Hillary did the right thing by standing by Bill after he committed adultery and that Laura Bush was good to hold her tongue until President Bush was out of office. Would the same apply if there was a First Man in the same position?</p>

<p>Since he or she is not an elected official, is not given any particular responsibilities, nor takes any oath of office, my first and only priority is that they provide love, support, and succor for their spouse. Being President is a difficult and stressful job, and the last thing that the President needs is any worries or distractions on the home front.</p>

<p>Anything else is just gravy.</p>
