I think he is unfit to be president because he is lacking a sense of honor in many areas, not because he is unusually randy. He has been a terrible liar about a lot of things; is utterly self- absorbed and insensitive to the effects of his actions on others; may be crooked, although it has not been proven with legal sufficiency; probably damaged national security for venal motives, although it is still under investigation; and, in general, has been a person with little scruples. Besides, assume that he were merely sick, but "under treatment" for these problems: even were we to let him off the hook morally, do we really want a president with these qualities? Do you want a firemen who is a weakling and phobic, or one who is robust and brave? Do you want a policeman who is a kleptomaniac and a bully, even if we could explain his behavior in reference to his childhood? To those of us who regret that he was not removed from office, or forced to resign, he is a man who has demonstrated that he hasn't the integrity, self- control, and judgment to be president, for whatever the reason.... |
