pat nixon did not play the role, the public role, that the white house wanted her to play. maryi think it goes further back. i think the republican party used her during the eisenhower, when she was second lady, and wanted to use this image of dick and pat as a young couple that mirrored america at the same time, two young children. the republican party actually helped to create the image of her as an ideal housewife. when she was there, they could not stop it. it took on a life of its own. >> do you think they were doing the same thing with mimi? mean -- mary: mimi was so much older. i think pat had to fill in with many. many was more the grandmother. she was not making public appearances the way that pat was. they needed pat to be a perfect housewife who could do all of these things at the same time. hostess: it is the flip of what we learned with lady bird johnson and jacqueline kennedy. jacqueline kennedy did not campaign very much later. the older and less glamorous was out on the campaign trail making a lot of appearances in setting the image with the public. >> how did sh
