OPINION: In one of my favourite episodes of The West Wing, Abigail Bartlet, a trained surgeon and the fictional first lady, speaks with a White House attorney about a looming scandal. The lawyer addresses her as Mrs Bartlet, to which she responds with the iciest correction: Dr Bartlet. When did I stop being Dr Bartlet? she continues. When in the campaign did I decide women were going to like me more if I called myself Mrs ? Andrew Harnik/AP A recent column published in the Wall Street Journal suggests Dr Jill Biden should remove the honorific from her name. The issue was not about her credentials; nobody could take away her Harvard MD. The issue was about her identity. She used to have one of her own, but now she had only what had been conferred by her husband. She missed herself.
