It seems that our nation is in dire need of a president who is a winner, not just someone who can win the office. The president needs to have it all: careful, considerate, wise, moral, able to make proper decisions in a timely manner, someone who understands what our nation needs and what our nation needs to be, someone that maintains proper priorities and emphasis, an excellent listener and an excellent communicator.
We now profoundly and desperately need a president who is able to make the best decisions and choose the best solutions in the following major, if not crucial, areas.
And the word "areas" is much, much too weak. Maybe we need to use a much, much stronger word such as "vitals!" So the vitals probably are economy, national security, military actions, being a good neighbor to the rest of the world, health of our citizens and management of our natural resources -- six vitals.
They say it differently, our president, who is tough and effective against corporate abusiveness, needs to brilliantly manage our national economics such that our national job situation is excellent and that we strategically always retain a full range of manufacturing operations on our soil -- avoid being free-market fanatics.
Someone who expertly monitors and plans any military action from the beginning to a successful conclusion with a careful goal of no collateral damage and no casualties or injuries to our troops. Someone who talks health instead of politics and manipulations regarding the health of our citizens. Someone who appreciates and values our natural resources and excellently manages these in the present and future.
