[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What if it’s a high profile political career and your spouse has a mental illness that may be aggravated by your national or global success?[/quote] Well, Abe, we are all grateful that you put career before spouse, but most people don’t have the Union to save. [/quote] A presidential candidate is a perfect example, even though you make light of it. The public trust is very fragile - could you imagine being criticized for your health? and campaigning alone could be harmful to the mental health or marriage with someone who has a mental illness you may not see (eg PTSD) that wouldn’t survive the pressure of being a first family. There are true security risks to consider. And career stagnation could happen. This is DC. It’s not some unheard of possibility. [/quote]
