Many confuse moral leadership with personal qualities. Every human has failings, but that’s not the same as a leader creating a moral vision, inspiring moral actions of their government to act on the behalf of the population for their protection and benefit. Through our history, many times the people are not aware of what is in their best interest. A moral leader is both a teacher, Counsleor, and a good family friend.

I think Joe knows this:

“The Presidency is not merely an administrative office. That’s the least of it. It is more than an engineering job, efficient or inefficient. It is pre-eminently a place of moral leadership. All our great Presidents were leaders of thought at times when certain historic ideas in the life of the nation had to be clarified.“- FDR
