However, few would deny that John and Jackie Kennedy are among the most respected whitehouse couples and the evidence now indicates he wasn't really much different than Bill. Just a different time and less respect from the press. Others have done similar - Bill just got caught and exposed.

But, yes, personal responsibility is the key, and enforcement when it doesn't work, if it is important to the couple. There is also that little aspect that as president, everyone involved has a responsibility to live up to the honor of the office. In their case, it doesn't seem like fidelity and honor toward one another is a factor. Makes me wonder how someone(s) like that could have honor/respect in the office and respect to the American people they represent, but I think the answer to that is clear. In the Bill and Hill case, it was ongoing, so yeah, I think it was her responsibility to make sure it did not happen again and again and again when he was incapable of behaving responsibly, if for no other reason than family honor or consideration of their child, even if it wasn't his. And yes I think it is a spouse's job to keep the other from straying, by daily actions and behavior toward one another, not necessarily by constant oversight unless you got a Bill type to cover. You really have to work at it every day, and sometimes it is hard work to do so. --R Bill R wrote: > Interesting that you feel it is your wife's job to keep your pants zipped. > Is it also your job to keep her from other men?
