Presidential Qualifications Today?

I can remember when the central question to be President was, "Does Character Matter?"
It seemed an illogical question at the time, but who am I to question the Elite Media?

This year the required qualification, or non qualification, are amplified just like the Unaffordable Housing Plan:
  • Does experience matter?
  • Does honesty matter?
  • Do associations matter?
  • Do voter laws and regulations matter?
  • Does amount of money raised matter?
  • Do donors matter?
  • Do what people do matter?
  • Do facts matter?
  • Do contributors matter?
  • Do principals matter?
  • Does your word matter?
  • Do intentions matter?
More and more, I'm observing that none of the these are important qualifications for a President.

Now the following points are considered more important:
  • How you feel
  • How you look (but not racial, gender, religious, or successful)
  • How smooth you are at covering your flaws
  • How good you can conceal documents
  • How many ways you can say nothing
  • How good you can fool them
  • How good you avoid answering questions
  • How good you can cover or express emotions
  • How good you can raise money
  • How good you can cover the questionably money
  • How you poll
  • How negative you are
  • Who won debate
Now the qualifications of the biggest, smoothest, and most accomplished crook is the most qualified--according to the Elite Media.

It seems illogical to me again, but who am I to question the Elite Media?
