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

Whats decent? Who decides? The only thing we can look at is that the person is promoting the maximum amount of well being.
Replying to @marwilliamson
You'd think so, but centuries of history have set a precedent saying the opposite.
Replying to @marwilliamson
At the root of the problems we're facing is that people in this country have drastically divergent ideas about what it means to be a decent human being.
Replying to @marwilliamson
One that earns the respect of others rather than demands that respect
Replying to @marwilliamson
Seriously yes it should! That’s why we should get rid of the incumbent

I would be happy with just the mixed bag of ordinary decency and occasional cravenness that your average person has. As long as they represent the working class. But that never happens.

No. Any other questions?
