Lady Bird Johnson tribute

Richard Derks (Jul 12, 2007)

Please, let us share what we think what her real power and charm was.

Jonathon Nierengarten (Jul 12, 2007)

To the women who really held the power through all these presidencies; let's celebrate their life and pursuit of happiness in this club. Where's Eleanor Roosevelt, Jackie O.?

Martha Mihaly (Jul 13, 2007)

I've always admired the role of first ladies and their influence. Let's remember First Lady Reagan, and of course the changes that Hillary tried to make. Mrs. Bush Sr always carried herself with dignity. Mrs. Ford allowed people to come forward with addiction, and made it acceptable. Incredible pressure, incredible role.

Richard Derks (Jul 13, 2007)

Martha: yes, Betty Ford was one of the best, I agree. She really went for a daring role.
