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

Who are you to judge the constitutes of an individual human being and their value as being labeled decent or level of decency? Loved all your books and respect you as a person but am disappointed in how off target you are on this.

Shoulds shouldn'ts have all been thrown out the window

Has there ever been a decent human being in that office??
Replying to @marwilliamson
Considering how many recent U.S. Presidents are also war criminals, I'm guessing the answer is "no"
Replying to @marwilliamson
Or in fact for any member of public office

Ok..but we must be careful. Ur definition of decency could be different from mine

Who decides what decent is?
Replying to @marwilliamson
Not good enough.. No Super PACs, No lobbyist donations, No Citizens United + be a decent human being

@marwilliamson Who do YOU consider to be 'a decent human human being'?
