Times have changed and the Presidency now requires more executive skills than back when communication meant telegraph or letters, and the Executive branch was much smaller.

Our best Presidents have been Governors or military leaders, because those were the places where men obtained public service and executive experience.

I see, NOW we add the Military Leader designation.

So????

With that lack of communication came lack of tools to deal with the problems of the day, which means they had to have a whole different skill set.

The best man for the job of President will always be the most principled, the most conservative, and the best communicator.
