Fascinating!
And don't forget that we might elect the first President to have had three wives (Newt), the first Italian-American (Rudy), the first M. D. (Ron Paul), the first recovering foodaholic (Huckabee), or the first certifiably insane person (McCain).
[Moreover, if we're REALLY lucky, Newt will dump wife no. 3 sometime soon and shack up with a new babe, just in time to make her wife no. 4 before his inauguration on Jan. 20, 2009!]
