Hire a President

We the citizens of the United States with our votes will soon hire a new President. Each of us serves on the board of directors of an organization called the U.S. with 335M constituents, and we must choose the candidate with an honorable past and a positive vision for the future of our democracy. As voters, we must evaluate the candidates applying for the job.

An important qualification of the leader of this big US is they must care about and respect all people — people of every different ethnicity, gender, skin color, education level, abilities and disabilities, faith beliefs or none, every type of job and income level - rich or poor and in-between.

Another characteristic for the leader of our country is integrity. The president should be one who works in truth, honesty and fairness, who honors the Constitution, respects the law and respects people, pays their taxes, does not deceive or cheat in business or in relationships.

In every way, Mr. Trump does NOT qualify for this job. He is a liar - over and over. He was impeached twice, the second for insurrection to this country. He cheated on his wife and cheats on his taxes. He cares not for others. He serves only one person - himself.

In every way, Kamala Harris is well-qualified to lead the U.S, - with integrity and with concern for all people. As president she will work to preserve our constitutional democratic republic. Character counts. We will vote to hire Kamala.
