Edith Wilson: The First Lady Who Became an Acting President — Without Being Elected
For one year and five months, Wilson oversaw her husband's presidential affairs while he recovered from his illness.
Many may not know this, but Edith Wilson took over as President when Woodrow Wilson had a stroke. In fact, she drove the President to run even though he was feeling ill prior to the stroke, which arguably caused him to have a stroke.
So, as we see, there are other instances where a President is infirm and unable to carry out the duties as President, as his wife takes over for him on the down low
I assume most democrats will vote for Jill in November.
