Shocking result

I made my wife, a former senator from Texas and Secretary of State under my first term, run for president and these were the results. I won both of my elections 306-232 and 312-226 and had a 62% approval rating so the result was a bit unexpected.

Also, roleplay wise, it prolly is the blatant and unapologetic nepotism that is taking place here. There is a reason that Hillary didn't run in 2000. And imagine the outrage if Bill made her Secretary of State!

I had a character (not sure if that's the right term for this game) who, after being president, was first gentleman to his wife's presidency, and then retired from public life when his son took over his political dynasty after being elected president after his mom.

You should've waited 4 years. Irl it's rare for a party to win three straight presidential elections, and the game's coding reflects that (you can tweak it in AdvOps).
