If you are a married man, you know what role your wife plays in your success.... she may not be there personally, but the fact that she is taking up some of your responsibilities as the head of family, as father, as the man in the family (as long as the line is not crossed) sometimes leaves you at peace to pursue the bigger picture for the family.... For example, you are chasing a deal from kisumu, mombasa or namanga. She ensures the kids are taken care of, school functions are attended, kids are disciplined in your absence, pipes are fixed before everyone is drowned, the bills are paid (even if you provide the money - it wont walk itself to city hall) etc..... Can you imagine a first lady who is throwing tantrums all over the place? People will start questioning your ability to lead if you cant even lead your own family.... so really, as the president, you need alot of support from the first lady - she can bring you down in a "swoosh".  Totally agree with you Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around....

In case this happens UK just needs to consult the two former presidents and the problem is solved like magic!  The man who marries a beautiful woman, and the farmer who grows corn by the roadside have the same problem
