There’s a hidden hand at work here. More investigation needs to be done!

You might be onto something here. Hillary Clinton is only 5ft 4.5 inches. Obviously the reason why she lost the election. [Seems like every modern president is around 6 feet](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heights_of_presidents_and_presidential_candidates_of_the_United_States#U.S._Presidents_by_height_order). She should have worn higher heels. I wonder how many first wives, if any, were taller than their husbands.
