Anita Perry is more of a guide to conscience and “doing the right thing.” She is not “ambitious.”

A 'guide to conscience"? Well, making a lot of TV appearances on behalf of what should be, her husband's conscience. And yes, Rick did say; it was 'HER' idea that he make this altruistic decision. (Could he not just assume a bit more responsibility for this critical decision?) Clearly, her 'voice' means a great deal.

As for ambitious; think she is quite ambitious; if only 'for' her husband - but surely; not without some self-interest here. And still think; if it just a matter of 'conscience'; then think we should be absolutely clear; 'whose' conscience comes into play; on the big decisions that Presidents must make.
