Destroy the Messenger

America has never elected a perfect man because perfect men do not exist. Every president in our history has carried flaws, pride, ego, weaknesses, bad decisions, or moral failures because human nature itself is imperfect. Yet today, it seems many people believe that if a leader has personal flaws, then everything he accomplishes should automatically… Read more »
