I think I'm gonna try to start using the term "First Spouse" from now on...

So when Kamala takes over, I won't call her husband the First Lady out of habit.

That works, though spouse is not gender specific either... Wounded Bear Mar 2021 #5

Yes, but I believe she wanted it not to be marriage-specific as well. n/t BeeBee Mar 2021 #6

She will be ready to repel the slings and arrows coming from the Trumpists. Attacking a woman this time around just might work against them and draw out more women to vote for her.

Just my 2 cents worth here.

Kamala will learn a ton from Joe. She’s wonderful but it’s a different stage.

Not that I'm pushing Joe and Jill out the door!!! We're just incredibly lucky to have two complete sets of intelligent and compassionate people.

When the time comes, I think I'll refer to him as the First Dougie. LOL! Such a sweetheart!

the country will be read to accept a woman president after having a great woman VP. If he became ill in a second term, she could take over and run as an incumbent which would giver her the best chance.
