I was watching C-Span and they aired a brief interview with former House member Yvonne Brathwaite Burke, a fairly liberal Democrat who served in the 1970s.
As part of her interview she discussed the fact that she was the first member of Congress to give birth to a child and the first to be granted maternity leave. It struck me that today that would hardly be a big deal, indeed outside of the human nature part of the story I doubt many would report it.
But for the era, it was a big deal. Indeed in 1964 there was a movie, Kisses For My President, in which the first female President (Polly Bergen) decides to resign after learning she is pregnant.
This brings up both the idea that we have made progress and that it entirely possible that at some point in the future we might face a pregnant President.
And I suspect we will deal with it as we now do with pregnant members of Congress.
