I think it is good that neither candidate has ruled out accepting the second spot on the presidential ticket, since it suggests to me that ego is not the conclusive element in their struggle for the presidency. If I am right, and we are fortunate enough to have two viable candidates for president, who are prepared to subordinate their personal ambition in order to achieve their professed goals, for America, and the world, then we are truly blessed. The possibility would be that they might be able to look forward to sixteen years in which they were able to define and implement plans based on their electoral promises.
This election is not just about America. The whole world is waiting to see who is going to manage the power which rests with the United States. Will it be someone who genuinely believes that all men and women are created equal, and that they must therefore work for everyone, or will it be somebody who, no matter what they say, is dedicated to a narrow vision, and selfish objectives?
