Me too. I thought she was a great president.
I think there is a very good chance that next season she will no longer be with her husband, he obviously didn't agree with her decision about what to do with Olivia. __________________

Glad you like it.
I'm really hoping her character is as strong next season as she was this season. It will be interesting to see if her marriage has broken up and what kind of effect that would have on her. I hope we hear more about Olivia too. __________________

She really is a real strong lady and I don't think that will be changing anytime soon.

I hope not. One of her best episodes, if not the best, was that final episode with her choosing between her daughter and her duty as President. It was just such a hard choice to make, and you could obviously see her husband putting pressure on her, laying down the guilt trip about what they had all been through already due to her job.

I really loved her in that episode, I liked the husband until that episode I understood him but to blame everything on her was messed up.

I could understand to a degree where he was coming from. He'd already lost one child and he didn't want to lose the other, but the way he was making out that it was her fault, and her job that had caused all of this was way out of line. I know you're meant to be there for your children and support them, but what Olivia did was wrong, and it wasn't a little mistake, she hired a hit man to kill someone, even as a parent you have to draw the line somewhere and Olivia deserved to face the consequences of her actions.

The way Olivia personality is, she seem like one of those children that you would regret not doing something about sooner about so President Taylor did the right thing even though I wouldn't do it

Exactly. If they kept clearing up her mess she would never learn.

Yup so she had to do what she thought was best, she probably feels sad cause she is the mother but you gotta make the tough choices sometimes.

What I also liked about her was that she was prepared to stand her ground even if those closest to her and around her disagreed with her decisions. When Dubaku was making threats she refused to give in, even though her advisors thought they should pull out, and when those two planes collided I think a lot of people would have given in to the demands before anymore innocent people suffered. But she stood up to the terrorists, even when it didn't seem a popular decision. She was prepared to put her neck on the line and make the big call when it was needed.
