Eva, you must have missed this clue

It's not Clinton. Actually, however, Eva is on the right track as the right president's "problem" did involve other women...

Ok, I have some more guesses - JFK?

Eva, that is an outstanding guess, but it's not Kennedy.

Hint #2: IMO this President did not have a "reputation" for "activities" with other women.

FDR ?

Nope, it was not FDR. But you are in the right century.

Theodore Roosevelt?

Harding

I am sorry, Gene and Bill. But neither guess is correct.

Hint #3: I will give my opinion about this President. If others disagree, that is fine.

But IMO this President did not have a reputation as a "womanizer." Thus, a certain comment he made about women was newsworthy.

Coolidge

I am sorry, Bill, but it was not Coolidge.

Hint #4: The comment this President made about his feelings for women was during an interview with a well-known mens' magazine.

Carter

Congratulations, Bill!! Jimmy Carter is the answer.

In an interview with a well-known mens' magazine Jimmy confessed to "lusting in my heart" for other women.

Rosalynn Carter was asked about her husband's admission and replied:

"Jimmy talks too much, but at least he's honest..."

The magazine clue did it--but there were not many presidents left to guess!

Here comes a triple whammy:

Which First Lady was a direct descendant of Indian princess Pocohantos?

Which First Lady won an Emmy Award?

Which First Lady was the first to earn a graduate degree, wear slacks in public, and develop a White House tour for the blind and deaf?
