woodrow wilson . or rg and people find us on google and trip advisor and maps and, i mean, to go in kind of double back on that and find her to change the name, that would be very cumbersome. but it did change the name to woodrow wilson housley can also find i think of the underneath the drama, the fed hundred wilson house is interesting how that word got put in there somewhere along the lines and now their online presence with that. but to change the name to something else, but would change it to the house on a street or within tell anybody. what a change to the edith and woodrow and sheehan she lived there for 37 years i think that is a fascinating subject rated should we consider changing it. another is a new move for flare the first lady and research and with the role of first lady is been. that will change as we have women presidents. this really a story about woodrow wilson and we probably would not change it to the edith and woodrow wilson house. but it is a discussion and it is interesting. >>

edith and woodrow wilson house.discussion and it's interesting. >> well, it may serve other purposes. also, it goes without saying that changing into the edith and woodrow wilson house would not in any way to mitigate the problem with race. >> not at all, not at all. it just compounds it. >> it would just compound that, yes, exactly. >> -- i know that what used to be the which are wilson home in south carolina has done an excellent job. they are now the museum of reconstruction, because they are telling a fuller story about what life was like during that. so, that is an opportunity for a museum such as they to do something like that. to pivot on their mission, and i think they are doing wonderful work down there as well. i do want to highlight that it can be done. i just think, for us, with our mission of life and times, it changes it. >> right. the reason i bring up the question is because i think it's one that, at least i can imagine, which are wilson saying it should be the people most affected who should decide.

kind of telling the drowling woodrow wilson want to do. this is in her memoir, she was proud of this picture. she said this is me, this is 1920, i like to think he's vetoing the volstead act right now. she thought of this as helping but still at the quality of she should not be doing this. this person behind the throne. next, please. take a look at this picture, we would never think anything negative about james baker, james baker, i am sorry, james baker in his role of chief of staff for reagan and the bushes. he was there to help not to get in the way of reagan. he was there to make sure that his agenda was fulfilled. he was the gatekeeper to do that. my theory is edith was the first. whether you think she should do it or should not have, whether we will see her again but probably not with the 25th amendment and the anti nepotism act. she was a much more important person than we give her credit for being. >> thank you, thank you so much for that really enlightening presentation. and, now, it is my pleasure, and keep your questions in you

first edith and woodrow wilson were products of their times. a lady did not engage with the third state. second unlike other first couples edith did not have the deep understanding of politics that nearly all other first ladies had by virtue of a long marriage and a shared political march toward the white house edith knew arguably less than any other first lady except young francis cleveland because edith had been married to wilson only three years and seven months before his illness began. third edith and woodrow married late in life and for the second time and they were still pretty much in their honeymoon phase her focus never wavered from protecting him. the repercussions from her decisions touch how we view the sphere of action of the first lady and act as a warning to every first lady down to our own day. power and the first lady have been an uncomfortable pairing ever since edith wilson. of course first ladies, are neither elected nor appointed but many americans are made uncomfortable by the proximity of family members to the president.
