2016 Selecting the President
The most important decision we make in our lifetime
2016 Selecting the President, The Most Important Decision We Make in Our Lifetime is an urgent wake up call. The election of 2016 will be one of the most important in American history. Our choice of President will affect the future of the United States and the world for the rest of the 21st century.
Every four years Americans elect a new Chief Executive. The person chosen is not just President of the United States. The position is of global leader, global decision maker and global visionary. The President can determine the fate of the human race.
This book is not an endorsement of one candidate over another. Instead, it is about the qualities we should demand that the President of the United States have to be the leader of a world that endeavors to provide opportunities for all in an atmosphere of freedom.
No one person will have them all. Even so, we should try to select someone who comes as close to the ideal without the illusion that saints sit in the Oval Office. They do not. At the same time, we cannot tolerate chronic sinners controlling the apparatus of the most powerful country on the planet.
We should realize that we do not elect a President but elect a government. The Chief Executive of America appoints thousands who administer the apparatus of the largest bureaucracy on earth. They should reflect the same leadership qualities of those who appointed them to roles of public trust. The process of voicing the qualities we need should be from “the bottom up” and not “the top down.”
Today we have the means to articulate what we feel are the traits that our top leader should have. Social media provides a new platform for all classes to communicate debate, convey and vent feelings from the bottom so that the top understands what we need at this time in our history. We should encourage discussion in all forms of media until it is clear that we will select and not settle for anyone but the best and brightest to be President of the United States.
