A wise man will seek counsel from God.
Proverbs 19:20-21

Which of our current and potential Presidents look to God for guidance? Jesus did (Matthew 26).
A good leader leads by example.
It’s illogical to follow a leader who makes rules, but repeatedly breaks rules.
1 John 3:5

The best leader has the practice of Servant Leadership.
At its inception, the United States differed from the model of elite “Rulers”, used by other countries. Instead, we chose an approach of Servant Leadership. A servant–leader focuses primarily on the growth and well-being of people and the communities to which they belong, in which the goal of the leader is to serve (selflessly).
As an example, consider The Legacy of Max De Pree – an article well worth reading, to understand the nature of a good servant-leader.
Jesus Christ described Himself as a servant, when He said, “The Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve.” (Mark 10:45)
