This 1990 King Features column argues great leaders from business, science, or education often lack presidential suitability due to constitutional checks. It cites Woodrow Wilson as an educator with limits, notes scientists must compromise with ordinary voters, and posits the president is an arbiter chosen by a sovereign people.
