When I read about this woman having a four month old Downs Syndrome baby, I
felt profoundly sad.  

I believe a baby's need for his mother's presence is as intense as his need
for food.  I can see no situation where this baby can get his needs for his
mother's presence and frequent nursing met, as she hits the campaign trail
and then, for the next four years of his little life, she attempts to carry
our the affairs of state.

I'm sorry to say that this is NOT the example of mothering and breastfeeding
that I want to have held up as an example.
