As mother, wife and now educator, I have had to handle the following "offices":
1. Secretary of Domestic Affairs --I can handle any disagreement between warring "parties" just ask my kids
2. Secretary of Finance--I have successfully lived on my tightwad (I love him dearly) husband's strict budget requirements for almost ten years.
3. Secretary of Home Security--I have made it my personal responsibility to make sure all of the windows and doors are securely locked every evening before hauling myself to bed.
4. Director of Toxic Waste Disposal-Have you ever seen the diapers produced by a two year old who has eaten too many Oreo cookies--nuff said?...
5. Director of Nutrition --Any of you who know my picky eaters can only imagine the difficulty of this position in my household
6. Director of Media monitoring and censorship--Any parent in today's world certainly has to become well versed in what is being shown on television, movie theaters and on the Internet since the rating system that is out there is questionable.
7. Speaker of the House--OK, this one is definitely not a difficult job for me since I obviously like the sound of my own voice and my husband is not much of a talker.
8. Surgeon General--It has been my job to thoroughly know every medication that any member of my family is taking and their possible drug interactions and side effects and to know which over the counter medication treats what symptom so that my "kids" (all 4 of them, LOL) can feel better as soon as possible.
9. Director of Physical fitness--Making sure the kids get plenty of exercise and make it to their (well just one of them for another year or so) practices and events whatever they may be.
10. Director of Transportation--Every parent knows what this means
11. Director of Education -- Every parent takes part of their children's education whether they intend to or not. Most parents intend to teach their children many things (walking, talking, manners, morals...just a few that come to mind) and they learn much more from just the way we deal with things ourselves.
12. Director of Social Planning and Scheduling -- 500 kids birthday parties per year, nuff said?
13. Director of Diplomatic affairs -- Have you ever had a room full of kids fighting over one toy? Much more difficult that negotiating a peace treaty between warring countries.
I could go on for hours and this doesn't even mention cooking, cleaning and other daily chores in the life of a wife and mother. So I really think that being president may be a step back for Mrs. Clinton. I am no fan of the lady but she put up with his antics for years and seems to have a daughter who is a charming young lady from all that I have seen and read.
