Richard - I can't help myself - an addict - this will be the last I promise - but Richard, the qualities you seek in a President would be more fitting for a priest - I was going to say a Pope - but the history of the Papacy precludes many of them as examples. It's a truism I think that only abnormal people spend their lives wanting to be President. Only a person of abnormal drives and ego would want this job - think back - most of them were pretty strange - right back to Nixon,, and then some before.
