Should it not be a prerequisite for the presidency that the person be a decent human being?

This is why so many of us won’t vote for Biden. Happy to see you’re catching on.

Any president that starts wars or coups in other nations is by definition not a decent human being. I am not sure the US has ever had a President who was a decent human being.

It never has been a requirement. In fact, it is demanded of them to be imperialist oppressors, or else Capitalism cannot function. americanempireproject.com/a-…

I don’t think decent human beings seek out the job.

Of course, but I can only think of one that has been. Jimmy Carter. Abject failure as a leader.
