Enemies Foreign And Domestic
The president of the United States is often referred to as the leader of the free world. This is not true. The president isn’t anyone’s leader, not even the leader of America.
The Constitution creates the office of the presidency under which the president is the constitutionally elected official who presides over the executive branch and serves as commander in chief of the military.
The sole reason for government to exist is to provide for the common defense of the nation against enemies both foreign and domestic, therefore the sole role and responsibility of the president is to defend the constitutionally protected rights of the American people—period, the end, full stop.
The following traits and characteristics may be ignored by the American people in expressing their choice of candidate for president in a popular vote.
Lots of money
Of a particular gender
Handsome or attractive
Prior experience in politics
Of a particular race or ethnicity
Bear in mind that there is no provision or requirement in the Constitution for the public to vote for a president. The president is selected by the Electoral College, wherefore the public vote may be thought of as a memo to state electors to consider the will of the people.
A true constitutional president would upon assuming office immediately take all necessary steps and actions to revert the functions of the federal government to their constitutionally limited and restricted roles, including the expurgation of all parasitic foreign influence.
With the above stated reasons to vote in mind, your author has considered every candidate proffered for the office of the presidency throughout his lifetime and found them, without exception, to be woefully underqualified, whether due to lack of character, integrity, or courage to speak the truth.
As a result I have never once voted in a national election.
The current president elect, Donald John Trump, has surrounded himself with political and religious adherents to the goals and objectives of a parasitic foreign nation led by crazy people who believe themselves to have been “chosen” by God and possessed of a messianic mission to deceive and subvert all other peoples, and for that reason alone is totally unsuited to serve as president.
Leaders exist because there are followers to be led. When everyone leads, no one follows. So lead yourself.
