Padme's Force Presence barely registers above non-Force Sensitive, but that doesn't stop her from embodying everything that makes a good Sith.
For decades, Padme cunningly observes Darth Sidious, and turn every single one of his moves to her advantages.
One of her biggest victory ? Making the Chosen One fall in love with her (not that it required much work on her part).
Now that Palpatine has finally put his plan into place (she might have pushed him a little, she has no intention to give birth to her twins when she isn't in a position of total power), she can use Anakin against him by revealing to her husband that Palpatine had been manipulating his fear from the start, sending him those dreams and that he was the one who tried to kill her. It's almost too easy after that to convince both Obi-Wan and Anakin to cooperate again and go kill Sidious.
And when Sidious is finally dead ? Well, it's very easy for her to grab all the power he prieviously held and to reform what is left of the Jedi.
Padme is crowned Empress, her loyal handmaidens transformed into High Generals at her side, and her husband appointed as Grand Master of the Force, so he can rule the Jedi as he sees fit.
And of course, she then give birth to Luke and Leia, her two heirs (and isn't it amazing how she now has guaranteed successor for both the position of Empress and of Grand Master ?)
Bonus: Padme also seduces Obi-Wan to the dark side, cunningly using her children against him (after all, neither her or Anakin have time to always be with them and so many people will want to do them arm, would Obi-Wan really choose his pride over those innocent children's well-being ?) and it's only logical to go one step further and seduce him into her marriage after that, since he's already part of the family ...
