Clearly leaders like John Kennedy - good looking, witty, intellectual, athletic - aren't so very rare as to be so seldom (almost never) found. Exceptionalism abounds in this country and others.
The insurmountable obstacle is - mediocrity (by definition) greatly out-numbers exceptionalism. And mediocrity so fiercely guards its position of power and authority as to instinctively recognize its greatest threat is any and all things superior to the mediocre.
Mediocrity so thoroughly fears and hates the exceptional - for its very survival, it has to stifle, smother, and snuff it out wherever and whenever possible. These are the facts and they are obvious. They are self-evident and true by the very definition and meanings of the words "mediocre" and "exceptional."
As a green eager youth, I applied for a job as a waiter at a nice little Italian restaurant. The owners sons were management types, and one of 'em interviewed me. "Where do you expect to be in five years?" he asked. (Wot the fock, I'm applying for a minimum wage job here, shit face.) So I says "I reckon...if promoted on my ability, I'll be the manager here."
Geez, idiot-boy aint got sense enuf but to ask stupid questions he got out of some "how to interview job applicants" book. What a maroon. And like my years in the US of Air Force. "Our mission is to fly and fight, and don't you forget it." No dip shit, your mission isn't to fight wars, it's to keep the peace. If yall weren't run by fokking combat pilots who only know how to war, you'd understand that.
But in the Air Force, only combat pilots are promoted to command positions, so how the fuck would they ever know any better. You get promoted based on "combat kills" not on who gots the best ideas of how to do things the best way. Is how it is.
And the really cool thing is - there's little or nothing we can do about it. In a democracy, the fucking stupid identify with their own kind - Ronald Reagan, W Bush, Donnie Trump. In America "anybody" can be president. That is, any fucking idiot who the majority of other fucking idiots can relate to. As Chris (shithead) Matthews oft said "who would you rather have a beer with?" Well, obviously a moron like W Bush, not a bright academic-type like Al Gore.
Wot the fock? We choose leaders cuz we wanna swill beer with 'em? How focking stupid could Chris Matthews be? (Again, if you've ever watched him on tv, that too is self-evident.) And now our nation selected the leader via a bunch of stupid cunts squealing "lock her up" like squealing "sieg heil" at Nuremberg rallies.
And the fucking fools don't even know any better cuz most of 'em got no fucking idea what Nuremberg is. Schools don't teach that shit, and them fuck heads wouldn't get it, even if someone tried to teach 'em. They's born stupid and raised ignorant. Shit, they's Republicans or Tories, or whatever the fuck corporate executives recruit to shill their products for 'em. And to keep the fuckin' filthy rich aristocrats in charge of everything with a fucking moron puppet as a mouthpiece to entertain the masses.
And no matter how hard you try - you can never outnumber the mediocre. To paraphrase Ma Gump "stupid is...and stupid does."
