well since a female would be called the First Lady, I would imagine a male would be called the First Gentleman.

I am sure that protocol people are working on this very topic.. just in case.

Won''t really matter. She only needs him for the election so they can appear to be a normal family.

If she does get elected, in the time between the election and the inauguration she's going to drop him quicker than all of her campaign promises combined.

She'll probably divorce him then sign an executive order to have him deported and sent to Gitmo. She'll have him put in a cell across from Monica.

Doubtful. Whether it's for practical or personal reasons, the two seem welded together. If she didn't divorce him during his governorship, she won't do it now.

Monica was not a surprise to anyone from Arkansas, I assure you.

Disagree. I think it needs to be updated.

Put Bill in a kilt, and call him 'First Laddy'.

On a serious note, i doubt that "First Lord" will EVER be a name used in the US..... EVER.

For one, the bible thumping crowd woudln't have that. LORD (yes, with captials), is reserved ..for.. well....


Secondly, I think our culture woudlnt tolerate it. In a country where "rugged indivdiualism" is the norm, nobody likes any title that sounds like an overlord.

Thirdly, if one looks at our countries earliest history, one will find it is decidely anti monarchy! (yet go figure peoples fascination with the "royals" out.. whooopity do).

Oh please, this election is going to show a country that values "cradle to grave" gov't assistance instead of "rugged individualism".

"First in line at the buffet table" is what would suite Bill best. Assuming Al isn't attending.

Actually in Clintons case they'll probably call him what they call all past presidents :"Mr. President"
