總結: | POLITICAL MORAL LEADERSHIP IS GENERATED, SUPPORTED, AND BLOCKED by the political morality of the people. Moral communities must accept the clay feet of their leaders but carefully monitor the moral qualities of their leader's public policy.

In this essay, I consider those similarities and differences to suggest a new moral index for public leadership. |
