Some good new info! Bonnie Parker looks like a real fashionista in your pix. It is a trial pursuit banquet.

That picture of Bonnie is more tasteful than her post-mortem pictures - those are tough to stomach.

Might be a category of First Ladies who became co-presidents -Eleanor Roosevelt for sure and then Wilson's wife, who I think took over his duties when he had a stroke.

I recall a lot of whining about Nancy Reagan’s outsize influence as well.

Hoping to see a Rule of Three column next year titled "Before He Was A First Gentleman."

Interesting tidbits. Thinking of all the male and female titles (King/Queen, Duke/Duchess, etc), First Lady is a curious match to President.

I've been mulling on this. My joke one would be America's Eve (get it? 🥸), but other more sensible options could be Presidentess, Grande Dame, or Consort.
