If Hillary won the presidency, what would Bill's title be?

[amadeus]

What will her boyfriend's title be?

No, no, you got it wrong. Bill is the adulterer. Hillary is the ruthless powermonger.

The Ruthless Powermonger treats his country and his people as personal possessions. He is completely unscrupulous and he will let nothing stand between him and his goals. Sometimes he can develop a streak of paranoia which will endanger friend and foe alike.

The analog to "First Lady" is "First Gentleman." "Secretary General" sounds good, though.

First Husband is the most obvious and logical.

 

[holy king]

Well, it is Ladies and Gentlemen after all, right? Husband wouldn't make sense, as it is not "First Wife" so far... And thus it should be "First Gentleman", I'd say. The question is however wether him being an Ex-President is more valuable than him being "First Gentleman", so people would still call him whatever Ex-Presidents are called?

well it's lords and ladies too, so i go for "mr. first lord"!

 

[mitsho]

What does lords and ladies mean? Yes, it is title of a noble. Like Sir, Duke, Duchess, Earl, etc. ...

I highly doubt, the Americans use it in that way. However it as well means the wife of a member of higher society, a gentleman. Ladies and Gentlemen is the context it was meant to be, any Americans or native Englishspeakers agree?

His title would be Mr. President.

The first lady title goes to who ever is the white house's official hostess. This title has been held by non-wife females. So even if Hilldawg is POTUS there will still be a first lady.

 

[Patroklos]

Ex Presidents are called "Mr. President." Once a president, always a president, you just are not THE president.

i'm right, of course
and it would make no actual sense to call bill first lord, of course...

 

[Patroklos]

America should come up with its own titles, like the Soviets did.

His Royal Highness King Consort William.

First husband sounds the less awkward.

To say nothing of slightly more accurate - Bill Clinton is many things, but "gentleman" isn't one of them.

 

[Irish Caesar]

Assuming he passes Senator Obama's dance test:

First Brotha'

I suppose that depends what your definition of "gentleman" is...

They do have clubs for gentlemen, you know...

 

[Rossiya]

He would be the First Lady, regardless of whether he is a man or a woman. The spouse of the president is the First Lady.

 

[brennan]

Mrs Clinton.

 

[Mark1031]

I'd go with First Phallus.

It's not some official title. We could call him First Humidor if we so chose.

 

[EconomistBR]

Mr Bubba Bill Clinton

Co-President.

Me too, I can't resist either. I've been thinking over something funny to write over here

First Lord.

That would be cool

I personally "High Lord"
