Former President Bush passed away. Despite the spat during the election campaign, President Trump will attend the funeral. The former President is credited for ending the cold war peacefully, and reportedly opposed the Iraq war.
His related tweets are viral. Of his accomplishments, of his personal life, and of the former First Lady Barbara Bush.
It probably preferable if the one that represent our nation be someone that we can admire, while it hardly could be the case that would coincide with the lawmaker that can win the race and can and does the job right. What we would look for in our middle class life is very different from what are required for those superstars under constant media attention.
The media fallacies of creating supersized human being that somewhat share the values with the rest of us is only showing how much they are given for political calculations. Typically, before a race, the media gathers a large sum of money and creates such a star. The rise and fall of a star might be entertaining in itself, yet that could not be of our national interests if applied on Presidents.
The head of the state, however symbolic as representing America, should be taken not as a superstar but as a statesman that is responsible for many lives, and deaths.
President Trump has elected, winning and passing the very difficult processes of media scrutiny on his private and financial life. Taking the state and the individual on the same level is the same with letting the state oppress the citizens. If we close our mouths on the power they exercise, we will never be safe.
