    Like a wise man once said, all men a wicked hence a good "leader" should have the animal traits of a fox and a lion.

    Ney, tis justice and righteousness that win the day and the hearts of the people in the end.

    Proverbs 29:2
    'When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice;
    But when a wicked man rules, the people groan.'
    Servant of the Most High,
    Lawgiver

    Isaiah 1:17
    Learn to do good; Seek justice, Rebuke the oppressor; Defend the fatherless, Plead for the widow.

    I agree with the quotation lawgiver however if integrity was so successful then why do wicked men prevail so often? Also this quotation says nothing about good or successful leadership just the reaction of the people. Certainly in a perfect world we would all be happy with a virtuous leader however such a leader is bound to make dangerous enemies in powerful places if the people are his only concern, just ask JFK.

    Its ironic you mentioned JFK. My initials are also JFK (Jason F. Klotz)... Unfortunately, my answer is spiritual in nature so it will be of little use. Basically we live in a fallen world where sin abounds. Though the "end" shall come and justice shall prevail.

    If we cheered them on to victory... would that cease to make them meek?
