Lamplighter’s Ideal Election

My lovely and talented wife has a new column over at Arhyelon:

This is the most interesting and unnerving election that has happened in my lifetime. Unnerving for several reasons.

When I was young, my parents were very thoughtful and idealistic people. They instilled in me a wish to see our country have a president who was as great as some of the most noble men of the past. So each election, I have searched the candidates for someone who truly believed and lived the ideas for which he stands.

Sadly, such candidates never appeared.

Until this year.
