Kisses for My President

When the idea of putting a woman in the White House was originally mooted a wag replied that when Kennedy was president the place was already full of women.

Sixty years ago 'Kisses for My President' took the potentially provocative subject of the first woman president but chose instead to concentrate upon the 'hilarious' adventures of Fred MacMurray's First Man.

The attitudes it contained may have then seemed patronising and archaic and one would have hoped that by 2024 the idea was no longer just a subject for fantasy and that a woman president would by now have become a reality.

But we're still waiting.
