Cold-Nancy Reagan says Obama snubbed her

Is there any precedent for a sitting president having to apologize to a former first lady twice?

Nancy Reagan told Vanity Fair that Obama missed an opportunity when she wasn’t invited to a March ceremony where Obama said he’d allow comprehensive stem-cell research — but that the commander in chief later apologized for the oversight.

“I would have gone, and you know I don’t like to travel,” said Reagan, 87, a well-known stem-cell advocate. “Politically it would have been a good thing for him to do.

“Oh, well, nobody’s perfect,” she said.

“I didn’t want to get into a Nancy Reagan thing about, you know, doing any séances,” Obama joked on November 7 at a press conference. Obama later apologized for his “careless and off-handed remark.”
