Reply #55: the interesting aspect in this, for me, is dean's decision

[bearfartinthewoods]

truthfully, i can't imagine myself, choosing a path that would put she-bear in a position like this. personal ambition is a personal choice so it's their business. i just can't immagine making that choice. he had to understand his wife's reluctance to be involved in his choice. the first lady does have responsibilities and that culture of hosting and being the country's "first lady" will be very difficult to change. she will be reviled in some qusrters.

it's just not something i would do if i were in his shoes.
