because they are all human

Most humans I know are decent and have never done something like this. Is it too much to hold our leaders to a higher standard than even an average person?

My comment was in response to your "a leader" comment versus Bill Clinton specifically.

Not every leader has behaved the way Clinton did - but they all have faults if for no other reason then they are human.

With respect to Clinton in particular, I think we have to ask what was/is wrong with our justice system that let him get away with it.

Out of 300 million people in our country, we should be able to find better people to put in charge.

Did she ever press charges? Sometimes there is an absence of evidence which keeps people out of jail. I'm ok with this because I'd rather have a guilty person go free than an innocent person thrown in jail on hearsay. But these kinds of stories should keep people out of power.

Most of the people that are in that position wanted that power in the first place and in time they abuse it

I guess only humans want power and me and you are only beings

@austinhopper, the reason you can't "find a leader that is just a decent human being" is because no decent human being would want to excersize conscripted "leadership" upon his fellow man. Decent human beings only want to "lead" people who choose to follow them.

lol... I hear you @austinhopper. Amen to that !! It doesn't matter if it's Right or Left. Bad on both sides. And I think that Clinton no doubt raped this woman . A lot of evidence. Also think Trump has done similar things to women. Just a bunch of "bad Hombres" ;)

its not hard ... Do you think before they become a leader they think about killing people ? noo way ... noone thinks about this only a sick person ( the person can fly and be a leader ( very smarts people ) ) ... when they got the power the card with be turn . thats the problem . even you ... of you become leader they do some thing to you no matter how to do their job ... / #vote #if #u #agree

If you follow constitution, you are not leader. All this non-sense that obidience is good has been pushed to us for thousands of years, from times of lods and kings. We are told that being a "dog" holds some kind of strange value that will be revealed later on, as place in a paradice, or that there is god that needs you to obey. Leaders are not those who are made of old traditions and values, leaders are those who bring new.
