Is the first choice not acceptable? :-)
Seriously, I have a distant second (who fails in at least one of the criteria), but I see no need to mention who that is.
How about you, does applying the principles help in weeding out good and bad candidates? If so, what is your short list? Are there principles that are missing?
Short list is Fred Thompson.
As for a second choice...it’s like asking which part of my body would I prefer to be shot in. Hands, toes, head. Coming up short on which body part I’d least like to keep.
