I don't know what they NEED. Neither does anyone posting here, which was my point. I have no idea what goes on at that level, it has a world wide reach and isn't just some "lady of the manor" having to deal with social invitations and tea parties.
I never thought it was. A staff would be needful for the First Lady of the US - no doubt about it.
But why the fluctuation of numbers? I remember someone earlier in the thread saying Jackie O had over 40 --- why? It should be a set number and if the FL (no matter what party her dh is) feels she needs more then it ought to come from her own personal funds.

I (we) don't know. Perhaps it's a good research project for someone with lots of time on their hands. I gues that would be any one of us who posts on the forum
Well, then you didn't read the thread as I do recall posting several times that Jackie O and Laura Bush were wrong to have such huge tax funded staffs. I also recall posting that had I been aware of C-D (if it even existed) at the time when Laura Bushs staff numbers became news I certainly would have posted my disgust about it.
You may be right about Hillary Clinton not coming up - but I do distinctly remember the other first ladies mentioned.
now that i'm looking back at the thread, i mistook this one for the now-locked one of the exact same name that was posted yesterday. oops!
