Recognizing the significance of presidential candidate spouses as understudied political figures, this work offers an in-depth analysis of public perceptions of Bill Clinton and Melania Trump during the 2016 presidential election, as well as the presidential candidate spouses in the 1992 and 2012 elections. By contextualizing these reactions within historical frameworks, the book sheds light on the evolving dynamics of American politics and the gendered nature of the American presidency.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFurthermore, the book explores crucial trends in U.S. elections, including party polarization, from the unique perspectives of candidate spouses, highlighting the symbolic significance of historic firsts such as the first African American candidate spouse and the first male candidate spouse. No other work offers a systematic exploration of public opinion towards candidate spouses as distinct political entities across the modern political era.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe study's findings shed light on the complex dynamics that shape public perceptions and attitudes towards presidential candidate spouses, providing valuable insights into the role these individuals play in shaping the political landscape and the broader societal discourse surrounding gender roles and leadership.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 246g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 149 x 210 x 12 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783319738789                            \u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2018                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Laurel Elder,Brian Frederick,Barbara Burrell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44102744899834,"sku":"9783319738789","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/3e83d2b47278ace1adb803174dc1d722.jpg?v=1631326645","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/american-presidential-candidate-spouses-the-publics-perspective","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
