Nah, a good leader can inveigle and manipulate people into voting for them. If they're a terrible person and can still pull that off, that's even more impressive. As long as a number of people put their trust into them to make the decisions, that person could be considered a leader. The best leader would just straight up take it regardless of what others thought.

I didn't say they never overlap. I said they rarely do. Currently we have a feckless cunt in the White House and Representatives who only give a shit about staying in office. Real leadership is mostly absent. That's what happens when you allow morons to vote

How do you keep morons from voting? Doesn't everyone see most everyone else as morons in the same way that everyone thinks they're the best driver on the road?

They also tend to be mostly lawyers. This is not coincidental.

No it isn't. Like I said earlier, hucksters. Lawyers are professional bullshit artists and most of them couldn't manage a carwash.

they should be politicians. caring about their own, sustaining effective policy's and X'ing the not. certainly not lawyers.
they should live for political science, live as eraser and creator of the component's that make everyone around us feel squared away, while we reap the benefits. we need not plunderer's and scavenger's.
they are convincer's to their polity and poller's but most of all, they are the one's who manage the do's and do not's, and since all coordinate measure's rely on one another, it needs to remain consistent.

politics is like how a dog will just bark at some shit that isn't either there or at least isn't even near it, and is basically harmless.
what we need is the son of Mr. Green Genes to really start taking the hold.

A good leader is able to attract the vote simply by being himself.
Lead with confidence and purpose and people will follow

That is quite bullshit. Good leaders rarely win popularity contests and that is what the elections are.

True, I see it the same way. The publicity he gets will put lots of money in his pocket and bring deals to the table. If he can avoid any more Mexican type remarks. No shot of winning but I'd take him over jeb, hill-bily, obumble or most of the rest. It is a publicity stunt. No the gop will not go on record as disavowing him though individuals will.

True, take a look at obumble's handling of the economy. Or of foreign affairs, or damn near anything. Give me a businessman over a lawyer anyday.

Lots, but this time he has already joined the race. He's more of a candidate than Scott Walker at this point.
No. Trump has no shot and I don't think that Walker has even announced yet
Exactly my point. Someone suggested trump wasn't a real candidate, and I refuted that by noting that Walker, a potential presidential candidate, hasn't entered the race yet. ATM, trump is more of a candidate than walker.

Feel bad for me all you want. Whatever his motives may be, he would kick ass in office. Who in your opinion would be a better candidate?

Nobody is being forcefed anything. There's more than 10 candidates. If you don't think that's enough run yourself. Guess how much that will decrease the percentage of idiots in the field.
