Just got around to reading an article in the weekend paper that talks about the possibility of Hillary Clinton running for pres in the next election. Don't roll your eyes. She'll probably run and she might very well win. Anyway, the thought occured to me, what do they call the "first lady" if he's a man?

AhHa! A loophole! So she can't run.

God help us all.

She has already started though promising the return of Hillarycare.

If she is elected I am moving to Canada

Hillary HAS been running for president for at least two years. I dread the thought of her becoming president, but I really blame the most recent holder of that office and those responsible for electing him. The standards have been lowered so dramatically that even a despicable opportunist now seems like a perfectly plausible candidate.
After the current administration, almost any candidate will appear highly qualified and honest, and the most mediocre performance brilliant in contrast.

the first mate?

the first consort?

the first gentleman?

the first husband?


i think first husband sounds ok

As a Canadian, of course I have no opinion on US politics. (Actually, being married to an American citizen means I know more about them that I need to, but that's not the point.)

Having worked with Canada's Department of Foreign Affairs, I'm aware that the US has already taken part in a series of conferences called "Conference of Spouses of Heads of State and Government of the Americas" - your current 'first spouse' addressed the conference in 2002, and the Presidential candidate in question attended the one I worked at in 1999.

Wish GW could run again!

Don't worry about Hillary. She has no chance of winning, probably because she's the most qualified.

Actually,
I am hoping Mitt Romney R-Mass gets the ticket, even though he comes from Kennedy/botched joke man state, he started some good programs and would do a good job.
