- LETTERS, Page 8THE SILVER FOX
-
-
- This country has waited a long time for a First Lady who is
- worth her weight (all size 14 of it) in gold (NATION, Jan. 23).
- The Silver Fox is all a First Lady should be -- intelligent, strong
- and gracious.

- While many of us can more readily identify with informality
- and down-to-earthness, a case can be made that Nancy Reagan's style
- was quite appropriate for the White House. I'm sure Barbara Bush
- will be a wonderful First Lady, but Mrs. Reagan was a class act who
- took a lot of flak for such "faults" as good taste, a sense of
- style, pride in her appearance and position, and intense loyalty
- to her husband.

- The pearls may be fake, but Barbara Bush is the genuine
- article.

-
- You portray Barbara Bush as a caring, motherly person, but I
- never heard my own mother describe a woman she disagreed with, let
- alone a candidate running for Vice President, as something that
- rhymes with "rich."

- It's true. The best thing about George Bush is Barbara.
