Who do you want to become the next First Lady/Gentleman of the United States??

[UrbScotty]

Sure, none of them may be the next Dolly Madison, Eleanor Roosevelt, or Jackie Kennedy, but one of these fine people will (hopefully) be either the next First Lady or our first First Gentleman. Who's your pick?


Gert Clark


Bill Clinton


Elizabeth Edwards


Teresa Keinz Kerry


Elizabeth Kucinich


Michelle Obama


Christie Vilsack

[sueh]

33. Tipper Gore...

Tipper Gore...Tipper Gore :yourock:

[lojasmo]

46. Yup....tipper gore. EOM

[MrSlayer]

2. Gert but only because it means Wes is President.

Otherwise I couldn't care less.

[phillysuse]

7. Gert is the greatest

and we have never had a First Lady with a Brooklyn accent.

[hippiechick]

3. ME, as Mrs. President Russ Feingold!

Hey, it's Christmas ... a girl can wish .... :silly:

[snowbear]

10. LOL... too funny!

I'll bet you two would make an incredible couple! ~~~

[hippiechick]

18. I sure like to think so!!

:applause:


Woo Hoo, hockey season !!! :hi:

[TheDebbieDee]

[jaysunb]

[JAbuchan08]

6. No you didn't Dennis Kucinich!

Elizabeth Kucinich is beautiful. I guess an anti-war position is very attractive. He's kinda robbin the cradle a bit their by the looks of it. :grin:

[Auntie Bush]

22. When did Dennis get married?

[JAbuchan08]

25. Sometime in the last four years.

A year ago or so, if I remember correctly.

There. Their. They're.

[Eurobabe]

40. Yeah, she's 27 or 28, and looks alot like his daughter

Now, I like Dennis alot, but it kind of gave me the willies when I saw her profile on a Cleveland news station.

[talk hard]

8. I like Michelle Obama

& Elizabeth Edwards and Gert Clark

[illinoisprogressive]

26. I vote with you

I want Michelle in the whitehouse. She rocks.

[snowbear]

9. I wouldn't complain if any of them were our next First Lady..

~~~~ 'specially..

...Gertrude Clark, Elizabeth Edwards, Barbara Richardson, Michelle Obama, Lisa Collis-Warner and who knows who else...

[Auntie Bush]

38. Thanks, that is a much better picture of Gert.

Wasn't that taken at Wes Jr's' wedding? I love the tender way Wes is looking at her. Now that's a man with feelings and one who would never send our troops (or anyone else's) into battle unless absolutely necessary. He's a man that cares about people more than money.

God, I wish this man were president!

[KAT119]

11. Tipper Gore for me, as well.

[vote 4 democracy]

12. Definitely Tipper Gore!!! n/t

[AtomicKitten]

13. me too

[jen4clark]

14. Gert Clark!

n/t

[lpbk2713]

15. Elizabeth Edwards has a lotta class.

And I would dearly love to see her as First Lady. For that matter, I would love to see her as President if she would choose to run.

[UrbScotty]

16. Oops everyone - sorry I forgot Tipper and Mrs. Richardson (nt)

[snowbear]

17. tsk, tsk....

Two minutes in the box for you!

~~~~~

[Catchawave]

21. Why "Other" is your friend on DU polls!

:hi:

[KingFlorez]

19. Bill Clinton

[drm604]

20. Paul Pelosi. n/t

[Infinite Hope]

24. I like John Edwards, but Mrs. Kerry. She's peppy and blunt. I love watching her. n/t

[zann725]

35. Totally agree. She has such strength & truthiness, CEO background & defers to no one!

I love how her "strength" and "truthiness" caused many to call her a "loose cannon" in '04. The powers-that-be that like to tightly "script" and neutralize First Ladies to keep them in the backround..."traditional".

And she's sooo worldly and multi-lingual, and 'old soul' wise. My top vote, no doubt.

[karynnj]

36. That is a fantastic picture of Teresa

almost smiling. She would make an unbelievable first lady. Between them, the Kerrys would be the most likely to have the most interesting White House. Teresa, like her husband, is both very serious on issues and fun - with a gorgeous smile.

[karynnj]

27. Teresa

who would be my favorite even if she were not the wife of John Kerry. She is an incredible wonderful person in her own right. She is brilliant, nice and funny.

[FrenchieCat]

28. I'll go for Gert! And here's a better photo, since the one you have is blurry!

[Leilani]

29. Hey Frenchie

That's a really nice pic of Gert!

[UrbScotty]

31. That is a better picture! (nt)

[Kahuna]

30. Tipper Gore!!!

:bounce:

[Tom Rinaldo]

32. I've actually spent time with Gert

She is a delight to be around. Very bright, very down to earth, wonderful sense of humor, and experienced at the job since she hosted state dinners etc as the wife of the N.A.T.O. Supreme Commander. She also is Wes Clark's true life partner, and took a very hands on role looking after the needs of families under Clark's various military commands.

So, yeah sure I'm biased, but I actually know a little about what I'm talking about here at least, lol.

[spooky3]

34. All would require a lobotomy and a big shot of nasty

to live up (down?) to Pickles' standards.

[PresidentObama]

37. Teresa Heinz Kerry

:)

I like Tipper Gore and Elizabeth Edwards a lot.

[blueblitzkrieg]

39. I voted for Elizabeth Edwards

because she's awesome :)

[DesertRat]

41. Other....Tipper Gore!

:-)

[mnhtnbb]

42. Voted for Elizabeth Edwards, but would really like Tipper Gore!

[demdiva]

43. Many of the these women would make excellent first ladies

Especially Michelle Obama or Elizabeth Edwards, but I voted for Teresa Heinz Kerry. The work she's done with the Heinz Foundation makes her a natural to take on this role. It's really a shame she was so vilified by the press in 2004, because she would have been a huge asset to a Kerry White House.

[MonkeyFunk]

44. I'd be pretty happy with most any of 'em

Dem spouses rock. Last time around, we had an embarrassment of riches - Teresa Heinz-Kerry, Gert Clark, Elizabeth Edwards... all of them great women.

[indigo32]

45. I'm interested in

as possible first lady.
Gert rocks too.
