On the lighter side, some thoughts that have been occurring to me. If you can think of any more, add them.
If Hillary Clinton wins in 2016...
It will be the first time two presidents have had sex with each other.
It will be the first time a married couple will have both known the nuclear codes.
It will be the first time one president has scolded another president for leaving the toilet seat up.
It will be the first time a president has forgiven another president for cheating on them.
It will be the first time a president has carried another president's baby.
It will be the first time a married couple will be referred to as Mr. and Mrs. President.
It will be the first time a husband and wife have their own libraries.
It will be the first time a president has had to nudge another president to stop them snoring.
It will be the first time a family will go back to being the first family.
If Hillary Clinton wins in 2016, and Chelsea Clinton runs in the future, it will be the first time every member of a family has been president.
UPDATE: I have just been reminded that Grover Cleveland's family were the first family to go back to being the first family.

(15,429 posts)Grover Cleveland's family stopped being First Family on March 4, 1889, then went back to being first family on March 4, 1893.
Edit it this way and you'll be right:
"It will be the first time a family will go back to being the first family with a different family member as president."
