Chief Strategist for Barack Obama's presidential campaigns, David Axelrod, wrote, "Margot Kidder should be remembered as much for courageously, candidly discussing her battles with mental illness as for any screen role. There are no Supermen- or women. It is not a character deficiency to acknowledge such struggles and get the help and treatment you need! RIP".
