Not an American and also someone who doesn't really understands this pick, but the DL have picked Kennedy family members in the past, so I think they just wanted to add one after a long absence of viable Kennedy options.

Agree with pretty much everything Sean said, Chirac seems very notable in France but not really worldwide or in the UK. I do think that she would be a good pick if the committee somehow picks her, but barring the US first ladies, they don't really pick political spouses, or at least they haven't recently.
