FRriends. I've been meaning to write a vanity about what "presidential style" is all about for a long time.

Finally finished it up. Hope there's something here for you.

I spent zero time explaining why Hillary is not presidential, but I have a feeling we'll see a lot of comments on that vein. Cheers.

This doesn’t look like a real “vanity” to me at all. It’s a well-written, interesting piece!

I’m impressed... Great job there Pocono...

Well done! Kennedy, Clinton and 0bama fit into the 'Trash presidents' garbage can. Having suffered under the latter two in my adult life, all I don't want is another of them.

And America is sick of machine politics and the idiots produced by that philosophy. Trump's not one of them, and would be a refreshing change of management, not to mention his extensive business savvy he brings to the table. How many of our former Presidents are billionaire businessmen? Most of our politicians couldn't manage a two-bit lemonade stand! Thanks, I'll STFU and go get another beer...I've got tomorrow off ;)

PP, Please make special note of the fact G. Washington was a man of prayer. He spoke to God on a regular basis. Perhaps to keep his faith, to ask for His Blessing, or just in conversing. That GW was a God Fearing man is perhaps contradictory to BOR's description of him in his Fox Special "LEGENDS AND LIES"

~ A Vision of George Washington ~

"The Birth, the progress and the destiny of the United States" "Son of the Republic, look and learn."

The father of our country, George Washington, was a man of prayer. Many of us have read of how he went to the thicket many times to pray during the winter his army was at Valley Forge. However, little publicity has been give to the vision and prophecy he received at that time. The account of this vision was given in 1859 by an old soldier. He gave it to a writer, Wesley Bradshaw, who published it. In the vision God revealed to George Washington that three great perils would come upon the republic. He was given to know that America was going through the first peril at that time. The old soldier who told the story of the vision said the nation would soon see the account verified by the second peril descending upon the land. We give the account here as printed in the U.S. war veterans paper The National Tribune, in December 1880. The National Tribune became, "The Stars and Stripes", and this article was later reprinted in that publication. I do not know whether it is owing to the anxiety of my mind, or what, but this afternoon, as I was sitting at this table engaging in preparing a dispatch, something in the apartment seemed to disturb me. Looking up, I beheld standing opposite to me a singularly beautiful being. So astonished was I, for I had given strict orders not to be disturbed that it was some moments before I found language to inquire the cause of the visit. A second, a third, and even a fourth time did I repeat my question, but received no answer from my mysterious visitor except a slight raising of the eyes. By this time I felt strange sensations spreading through me. I would have risen but the riveted gaze of the being before me rendered volition impossible. I tried once more to speak, but my tongue became useless, as if paralyzed. A new influence, mysterious, potent, irresistible, took possession of me. All I could do was to gaze steadily, vacantly at my unknown visitor.[snip] ...

The First Peril: The Revolutionary War. [snip] ...

The Second Peril: Slave trade from Africa is used to instigate the Civil War.[snip] ...

The Third Peril: the USA is Invaded by Foreign Troops At this the dark, shadowy angel placed a trumpet to his mouth, and blew three distinct blasts; and taking water from the ocean, he sprinkled it upon Europe, Asia, and Africa.[snip] ...

"Son of the Republic, look and learn."

As the voice ceased, the shadowy angel for the last time dipped the water from the ocean and sprinkled it upon America. Instantly the dark clouds rolled back, together with the armies it had brought, leaving the inhabitants of the land victorious. Then once more I beheld the villages, towns and cities springing up where I had seem them before, while the bright angel, planting the azure standard cried with a loud voice:

"While the stars remain, and the heavens send down dew upon the earth, so long shall the Union last."

And taking from his brow the crown, which blazoned the word 'Union,' he placed it down upon the standard while the people, kneeling down said, 'Amen.' The scene instantly began to fade and dissolve, and I at last saw nothing but the rising, curling vapor, I at first beheld. This also disappeared, and I found myself once more gazing upon the mysterious visitor who, in the same voice I heard before said, "Son of the Republic, what you have seen is thus interpreted: Three great perils will come upon the Republic. The most fearful for her is the third. But the whole world united shall not prevail against her. Let every child of the Republic learn to live for his God, his land and Union."

With these words the vision vanished, and I started from my seat and felt that I had seen a vision wherein had been showed me the birth, progress, and destiny of the United States."

Cheers! Well done!
