Paper Summary:

This book provides a literary analysis of Kati Marton's "Hidden Power", which encompasses stories of presidential marriages that shaped our recent history and the power behind the presidential wives. There are 12 stories of presidential couples, ranging from Edith and Woodrow Wilson to Laura and George W. Bush. The author of the paper comments that many people take the presidential wives for granted and do not realize the influence they have on their husbands.

From the Paper:

"Rosalynn Carter was known for being the one who actually enjoyed politics, unlike her husband, who did not. Many believe he would not have been President if not for her. She was even known to go into broadcast studios and have a prepared list of questions they "might like to ask". (Hidden Power p.224) Many times she would sit in at Camp David negotiations and took notes for her husband. During her husband's presidency she seemed to help carry the load when her husband lacked a quality needed."
