Spouses whether male or female have a great deal of influence on their mate. It has been stated that Nancy Reagan was behind many decisions Ronald made as President. Therefore "no person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President"; their spouse must also be "a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the age of thirty-five years, and been fourteen years a resident within the United States"; their spouse shall have"been fourteen years a resident within the United States."
