I think my perfect POTUS would have:
Washington's courage
Jefferson's foresight
Ben Franklin's wit/humor
Lincoln's judgment
Kennedy's charm
Nixon's IQ
Poppy Bush's/McCain's heroism
Reagan's communication skills (plus- he had horses!)
Clinton's ability to work across the aisle and his ability to connect with voters
Hillary's intestinal fortitude
Romney's charity
Ron Paul's humility
Obama's compassion/fathership
Give me your example! Please try to include more than one party so that we can keep this a "bipartisan" thread. lol
Hugh Jackman's Abs
Vin Diesel's Ass
(Hey... got to make those long press conferences interesting somehow)
Dalai Lama's self-awareness
Mother Teresa's ethics
Paradigmsearch's writing skills
All men are flawed, some more than others, but my perfect POTUS would have the following attributes:
Loyalty to the Constitution
Honor of those that serve in the military
Vision to see the big picture, to see beyond what others would limit him to
The humility to serve just one term
A conservationist of natural and human resources
A willingness to listen and hear
A willingness to change his mind if presented with ideas or facts that would facilitate that change
Strength to challenge those around him to reach for the next level of competence
Jed Bartlet would be my perfect POTUS
Super smart. Just the right amount of snarky. And great hair.
Unconditional patriotism.
Ability to scare the living shit out of our enemies.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Congress allocate and approve the money? And all the POTUS can do is ask for it? If that's the case, both Republicans and Democrats in Congress are responsible for this growing debt not the POTUS? They could say no? But then again looking at the pork in the...
