If Only Pope Leo XIV OR King Charles III Could Be President Now!

It is a sad state of affairs that in the present political climate in America, this author and blogger, and I am sure, many other Americans, wish for a scenario that, of course, cannot occur.

That is, that either Pope Leo XIV (a native Chicagoan), or King Charles III of the United Kingdom, could be our President at this difficult time.

One does not have to be Catholic or British to feel that both of these world leaders are inspirations and demonstrate common decency, empathy, and intelligence to be spokesmen for what is best in the human condition.

Both are recent leaders, with the Pope just for the past year, and King Charles III only the reigning King for three and a half years.

But both have expressed and demonstrated that they are statesmen, and in the case of Charles III, his recent visit to the United States has, for the first time, demonstrated what a “jewel” he is on the world scene, while Leo XIV has already made clear that he is a great spokesman for the best elements of Christianity, and a worthy successor to Pope Francis.

Compared to the unhinged behavior of Donald Trump as he nears 80, the King in his late 70s, and the Pope in his early 70s, stand out for true, dignified leadership.

First Lady Dr. Jill Biden A Major Asset To Her Husband And The Nation

First Lady Dr. Jill Biden is the oldest First Lady to enter the White House, with Barbara Bush at age 63 the oldest First Lady until 2021. And today, June 3, is her 71st Birthday!

Dr. Jill Biden adds dignity, intelligence, compassion, and empathy to the First Ladyship, just as her husband, President Joe Biden, does to the Presidency.

She is the first First Lady to continue to work while First Lady, as she is a professor of English at Northern Virginia Community College since 2009, after having been an English and writing instructor at Delaware Technical and Community College for fifteen years, and before that, an English and reading instructor at the high school level for thirteen years. So she has taught for more than 40 years, an amazing record of accomplishment.

She has a bachelors degree, two masters degrees, and a doctorate in education, with the bachelors and doctorate from the University of Delaware.

She has had more years of experience high in government, with only Barbara Bush and Pat Nixon having been both Second Lady and First Lady before her in modern times for an extended period of years.
