Why morality should be seperated from competence
Coincidentally, i was just talking with Phil today why a candidate’s moral values, or moral integrity not be a determinant, but rather competence should be the deciding factor. And then i read this post. An excerpt:
Would you vote for:
- A man who cheats on his wife?
- A handicap?
- A man with health problems which he did not reveal?
- A man with little formal education?
- A man who has manic depression?
- An alcoholic?
- An average student?
- A divorcee?
If you said no to any one of those questions you would’ve rejected…
- Franklin D Roosevelt and John F Kennedy (rumoured)
- Franklin D Roosevelt
- John F Kennedy
- Abraham Lincoln
- Abraham Lincoln
- Winston Churchill
- Ronald Reagan
- Ronald Reagan
Almost like serendipity.
