The president is like a spearhead which branches out to about 300-400 people in government agencies. He is in the office to get the job done, the executor. He shouldn't be persecuted for his own personal, private affairs. This was not an endangerment to the country. It was two consenting adults willingly participating.
Life is lived as a soap opera, from a charismatic point of view.
I just see the whole thing as a big wake up call. We need to pay attention to where we are and what we are doing at the moment. It's a wake up call for me to pay attention to how I act, think and feel. Also, how I present myself to others. This panic and reaction then creates a kind of frenzy until we work ourselves into a crisis.
