It’s always a top leader, never a little nobody. Just like every reincarnation is always a king or queen, never a servant.
Which would you rather be? A reincarnation of Ted Kennedy or Abraham Lincoln? Or worse, a reincarnation of Huey Long, or FDR? The lesser souls, both good and bad, are on a long waiting list.
On the other hand, all the e-mail scams are from the brothers or sons of deposed dictators, never from the man himself.
