>A man who committed adultery. Which it seems most of our Presidents have. >I'd love to see you prove that. Well, I'm just looking at the presidential biographies on my shelf: -Teddy Roosevelt: Didn't. -LBJ: Openly and proudly -FDR: Yup. -Bush II: Probably not. -Hayes: No -Arthur: No -Harding: Absolutely. -Reagan: No -Cleveland: No, but thought he likely fathered a kid out of wedlock: "Ma, ma, where's my pa?" He said he didn't, but the kid had his last name and he did pay child support -Nixon: No -Bush I: Probably Off the top of my head, Clinton did, JFK did, Jefferson did... Obama probably hasn't, Lincoln didn't, Carter didn't; I don't know about the personal lives of many of the others. I'm sure at least a few that I don't know much about did, and at least a couple whose personal lives we don't know much about did. Most presidents' personal lives weren't really scrutizined the way they've been the last few decades. If I had to guess, the percentage is probably around a third -- which I believe is right around the percentage of people who cheat in marriage. Presidents are human beings. Human beings are very complex. Regardless of party, I don't think a President's fidelity or lack of it has any bearing with his policies or performance as President. -Z
