How to Pick a President

Scott Berkun.com

"Fred I. Greenstein, Professor of Politics Emeritus at Princeton University, calls out 6 attributes most related to success in office, a veritable scorecard for our use:

--Effectiveness as a public communicator

--Organizational capacity

--Political skill (well duh, but he explains specific traits)

--Vision

--Cognitive Style

--Emotional Intelligence"

There's plenty more analysis and information here, applying to all major elective offices. Maybe this should be a required course in school.
