America, You're Fired!

So you thought the idea of electing a former reality tv Game Show Host would keep America great. You figured by spinning the wheel and taking a chance on a businessman more familiar with bankruptcy court than government legislation would somehow lead to a better, stronger America. You would have me believe that a clown could be put in charge of a circus and the show would improve in part due to the expertise of the clown-in-charge. 

Well I got news for you America; Fulfilling the duties of the Presidency of the United States requires something more than the antics of a clown, game showman or bankrupt businessman. It requires leadership, integrity and diplomacy. It requires confidence and commitment to represent the country, utilizing all resources available to make decisions that best serve it. It requires one who is sound in mind and flexible in problem solving ideas. It requires vision and planning. It requires an unselfish country first attitude with a worldview of politics. 

It's not that a showman, businessman or clown could not or should not become President of the United States. But once he/she becomes President all manners of conducting oneself should rise to a higher standard; ones manner should be seen as Presidential. 

When you envision some of our most successful former game show hosts performing the duties of President of the United States, it doesn't sound so farfetched. There have been some capable men.



But let either of them, while serving as President, begin to conduct himself as something unbecoming the commander-in-chief, he should be called to answer for his questionable words and/or actions. We as citizens owe to our democracy to guard against the sullying of our country's leadership position, lest we lose our standing as leaders of the free world and/or our own personal freedoms at home.

Today's Presidency and White House Administration is a warning to us voting citizens of these United States; one that we must heed in the upcoming Presidential election of 2020.
