Top 10 Necessary Character Qualities for Next President

Keep It Real. Newt Gingrich’s personal history, or even Donald Trump’s, are not what is at stake in this election. Let’s get a grip on perspective here. Our country’s direction and our government’s ability to function are at stake. Our priority as a nation should be to elect a president who will remove the corrupt power centers of government and deliver strong Red, White, and Blue American policies. I care about results. That is after all what we are greatly missing, isn’t it? I want to save lives, empower and employ Americans, help strengthen the American family unit and our communities, rekindle the American spirit, secure the nation, unleash our country’s true innovative capabilities, and yes, freely say “Merry Christmas.” I want life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, one nation under God, government by, for, and of the people, and everyone equal under the law.
With today’s development that the FBI has re-opened their criminal investigation of HRC and her illegal secret unsecured server, we have apparently arrived at the precipice of a potentially harmful scenario; the election a chronically corrupt criminal into the Office of the Presidency. Some staunch supporters may still cling to the right-wing conspiracy theory, but reality has finally closed in.
Depth of Corruption. Through WikiLeaks and other sources, more and more details emerged that reveal HRC not only committed crimes but colluded in an organized crime structure, spread corruption, and subjugated our government. Some may have thought this impossible but she is highly intelligent and as an Ivy League lawyer literally knows her way “around” the law. She is also a Clinton with connections. The President most likely did not want her to drag him into it, but failed to contain the situation. The President was aware of the transgressions because if not then we had / have a national security issue concerning the security of his email servers as well (he received classified emails from her secret unsecured server). Further, the President allowed the Justice Department to essentially pardon her from indictment without due process. This indicates that implications would fall on him as well. What we have here is not just an American problem and bipartisan issue, but much worse, the unfolding of a potential constitutional crisis.
Why is all of this happening? We as a nation need to better determine what a presidential candidate will do, as opposed to what they say they will do. Obama and HRC are perfect examples of ideologues who enter office with a predetermined set-in-stone agenda otherwise previously unrevealed in their candidacy. In the case of our current president we did not find out what “transform America” meant until it was implemented (i.e. Obamacare). He implemented a quasi-socialist card-carrying “globalist” fraternity of government officials without regard for any other impending issue. Obama and HRC, fixated and inflexible, treated everything else as inconsequential, diversionary, or superfluous. Due to the inevitable intervention of reality, events such as ISIS and Benghazi occasionally interfered with their plans. He and his administration as well as HRC then had to “create” false narratives (i.e. “the video”) to protect their agenda. Otherwise, an intrusion of truth could undermine it. That is not governance, that is deliberate derailment of the will of the people, abuse of power, and a clear violation of the Constitution. When you operate on deception, bad things start to happen.
That is where we stand today, and that is why the following sample short list of atrocities were ignored and allowed to happen:
The slaughter of Benghazi consulate officers
Iran Deal; Paid $1.7 Billion cash via unmarked plane, bound us to a nuclear deal that will enable instead of disable Iran's nuclear ability
Iran aggression; our soldiers humiliated, our military recklessly taunted
Murder of our police officers and the fomenting of racial divide and violence
The formation of real-estate-holding ISIS; allowed them to organize, carry out terrorist attacks, and commit genocide of Christians as well as their own people, women, and children
Brutal murders, and other crimes including rape, of American citizens. Presidential executive orders provided space for Illegal alien criminals to return repeatedly and to have asylum in sanctuary cities only to ultimately commit these crimes. I.e. Kate Steinle
Inner city violence, poverty, and education epidemics
Veteran deaths through VA medical care neglect
Advocation of late term abortion (this is also evidence that they prioritize satisfaction of special interest groups over protection of life itself)
The spread of government corruption
Loss of American jobs; international outsourcing. Stalled economy
Lack of energy independence
Obamacare; medical and financial hardship
A weak America due to globalist ideology
These were not mistakes or oversights. These events took place because our leaders either did not lead or mislead.
The country cannot afford corruption, especially in government or corporate media. Why? It has oversight into everything else. Our democracy depends on: 1. Rule of law as it applies to everyone. 2. The authority and protection of the constitution. These two items provide justice and consequently our freedoms. Our way of life depends on the success of a properly founded, orderly, and just society. Government must be scrupulous in its execution of the rule of law and the protection of the Constitution. Likewise, the media must ensure that the government does this job to its fullest. These are part of the checks and balances that our forebears built into the system. If we have corruption that is not just random, but embedded at the highest levels of leadership, the impact is catastrophic to our form of government and to the country.
The reporting media’s job is to link what happens to what people see and hear. They essentially serve as the only check against proper information dissemination. A corrupt media that misinforms or neglects to inform the population, does the country a great disservice. Without the facts people have no basis with which to exercise their will. Thus, the media as a collective has the power to effectuate, or in this case, obstruct, a government “by the people.”
Our forebears recognized our rights as God-given and fought to keep it that way as it places the balance of power with the people. They knew what would happen if we allowed government to overstep its bounds. Obama and HRC, who subjugate and sidestep the Constitution, have essentially instituted their own quasi-government. The problem? It’s illegal, corrupt and devastating to a civilized nation of law. They have the right to attempt to change the constitution, but that is not what they chose. They chose path of subversion and corruption.
We must end this self-destructive self-imposed sabotage. We have no one to blame but ourselves for our destiny. We may effectuate change through our vote, but many Americans lack the informed opinion necessary to make good voting decisions. A large sect of the population only dwell on the surface of current events. Some of them only understand trends and sensationalism. Others are interested in only money or handouts. Some are concerned only with staying inside the borders of political correctness.
For mature Americans who know the potential greatness of the country, I reserve no absolution for their election decision four years ago. Imagine the direction we could have taken with job markets, social progress, national and border security, unification, and not so trivially, our ability to say “Merry Christmas.” Wasn’t the goal of the Presidency for the last eight years to empower and unify Americans, inspire the American Spirit, rebuild the economy, ignite our industrial engines, lead and inspire innovation with technological commitments and initiatives, truly care for the poor and those trapped in poverty, and extend a hand to hard working people who lost jobs to international outsourcing?
The Top 10 Character Qualities for our next president to achieve necessary change (these “trump” all else):
Respects the will of the people
Respects the Constitution and the rule of law
Appreciates and respects the checks and balances of our government that our forebears thoughtfully framed
