I think it is important to ask ourselves as citizens not as Democrats attacking the administration but as citizens whether a world power can really provide global leadership on the basis of fear and anxiety?

I definitely think cheerleaders have no fear.

Humility is a great quality of leadership which derives respect and not just fear or hatred.

God will never direct us to be prideful arrogant and unforgiving immoral or slothful or full of fear. We step into these things because we are insensitive to the leadership of the Holy Spirit within us.

It's a tremendous responsibility to be direct descendants of the prophet Muhammad. This family has had the burden of leadership on its shoulders for 1 400 years. I'm not going to drop the ball on my shift.

I think it's a good thing for a president or political leaders to want to put their values or their faith into action. Desmond Tutu did that in South Africa. Martin Luther King Jr. did that here. This is a good thing.

President Ford was a devoted decent man of impeccable integrity who put service to his country before his own self interest. He helped heal our nation during a time of crisis provided steady leadership and restored people's faith in the presidency and in government.

You can almost see voters nodding their heads at home: The public's faith in politicians and political institutions has been on a steep and dangerous decline for decades because elected leaders fail to deliver.

With gridlock the norm Congress's approval rating is below 10 percent and the public has lost faith in its national leadership.

The democratic idealist is prone to make light of the whole question of standards and leadership because of his unbounded faith in the plain people.
