Bryans Idea of Model President
William J Bryan argues in Colliers Weekly that a president must have sympathy for all people not the few, must discern truth from sophistry, show moral courage, value counsel and open conviction, and balance platform duties with independent judgment. He favors a cabinet including the Vice President and cordial ties with other branches to express voters will. He says the presidency is the highest office and demands selfless service without seeking a second term.
