The American public asks a lot of its first ladies. We expect them to absorb the celebrity spotlight without being scorched by its unforgiving glare. We require them to somehow embody and represent all women while being their unique, authentic selves.
Those first ladies are given a lot, too: the rare opportunity to preside on the world stage, not through dint of their own victories and accomplishments, but because they lie down at night with, arguably, the most powerful actor on the planet.
The Bush women hold a unique place in the pantheon of American political spouses. Laura Welch Bush is the wife of the 43rd president. Barbara Pierce Bush was the mother of the 43rd and wife of the 41st. Dorothy Walker Bush was the wife of a U.S. senator, mother of the 41st president and grand matriarch of what the author J. Randy Taraborrelli calls the Bush dynasty.
