Running for Home

Is the father at work the same man as the father at home? What if his home is (say) The White House? So what do you learn about how a president will govern by the way a man campaigns?

Today's New York Times offers a look at fathers (and mothers) and children on the campaign trail. Whatever you thought about your favored candidate and the others will most likely be reinforced by what you read about the extraordinary compromises made by dads (and kids) in the hunt. However, you might pick up something on another candidate you can always use against them when arguing with hour friends.
