Dear Lactnetters, A friend of mine is taking a psychohistory course and the class is investigating the personal backgrounds of the candidates. She called me to ask if I would have any way of knowing if Gore or Bush were breastfed, if their children were, or if the candidates were present for the birth of their children or if the canditates own fathers were at their births (George Sr., or Al, Sr.) If any one has any knowledge of this information, would you mind sending me the references, if any, for my friend, who by the way, I met at LLL meetings I hosted at my house 21 years ago when our sons were breastfeeding. I told her I would ask on lactnet, which she did not know about, that there are 2000+ experts on breastfeeding and perhaps someone might know. It would be interesting to pick candidates based on some of these views, which might influence national health! If anyone has the answers you may e-mail me privately and perhaps the people in the US may be interested to know, too.
