As a leader of our nation, I want BOTH. If he is taking the relationship that should be the most important to you (husband vs wife) and is cheating/lying/disrespecting and ignoring that oath he took, makes you wonder what else he was doing in office that we don't know about yet. It might be because I'm still young and Idealistic, but I feel that the President should be a role-model for young adults, and I don't feel that he did that. So to answer your question, I don't think you CAN be a good president if you cheat on your wife from time to time, but I also don't think having a 'perfect' marriage makes you a good president, either. That's just MHO, though.
