Campaign behavior for wives: Always be on time. Do as little talking as humanly possible. Lean back in the parade car so everybody can see the president.

We will be drawing down some troops. If the president wants to try to turn that into the beginning of a success, he actually, I think, has some opportunity.

Be able to resign. It will improve your value to the President and do wonders for your performance.

Leave the President's family business to him. You will have plenty to do without trying to manage the First Family. They are likely to do fine without your help.

In our system leadership is by consent, not command. To lead a President must persuade. Personal contacts and experiences help shape his thinking. They can be critical to his persuasiveness and thus to his leadership.

If you foul up, tell the President and correct it fast. Delay only compounds mistakes.

If in doubt, move decisions up to the President.

Many people around the President have sizeable egos before entering government, some with good reason. Their new positions will do little to moderate their egos.
