Default What It Means To Be President of the United States

I teach English as a Second Language and American Culture to adult immigrants. We are beginning to study and learn about the American Presidency.

Your thoughts please.
What does it mean to be president of the United States?
What are the qualities a president should have?
Who is your favorite president?
Who is your least favorite president?
Any presidential stories to share with my students and I?

Sincerely,
Alan

What does it mean to be president of the United States?

What are the qualities a president should have?
Plenty of friends to protect you from your dissenters and take the blame for your screw-ups and bad decisions.

Who is your favorite president?
(Hmmm...that's a tough one.)

Who is your least favorite president?:thumbsd own:
