It's probably for the best. Only a truly great man would be worthy of the power the office of President of the United States grants, and great men have an annoying tendency to become tyrants.

Your mention of the Founders reminded me of a thought I once had that we might have been better off if, instead of a President and a Vice President, they had simply created two co-equal Presidents with veto powers over each other. Hey, it worked for the Romans...

instead of a President and a Vice President, they had simply created two co-equal Presidents with veto powers over each other.

Actually, they forbid that division of the executive but we were not wise enough to hold to their example. You recall the Xlinton Co-Presidency?

Yeah, it sounds good but it's a bad idea. One executive is dangerous enough to the health of the republic.

But if you really go for that idea, I read that Rudy is offering a Co-Presidentrix. And the Dims are offering a Presidentrix with a Co-President, it seems. The rest of the GOP field is, alas, mired in the dreary past.
