It is vital that America chooses exemplary leaders who can inspire us with loving and Godly behavior and deeds. In 96 AD, Clement of Rome, a disciple of the Apostle Paul’s, and a man appointed by the Apostle Peter to lead the Christian Church, wrote a letter to the Corinthian Church in Greece. He exhorts them to choose and to follow good leaders. This is his description of such leaders. This is the person we should elect. — “Let a man be faithful: let him be powerful in the utterance of knowledge; let him be wise in judging of words; let him be pure in all his deeds; yet the more he seems to be superior to others [in these respects], the more humble-minded ought he to be, and to seek the common good of all, and not merely his own advantage.”
