Features: Loyalty to the nation, fairness and integrity, self-discipline, tolerance, universal love, farsightedness, calmness, courage, decisiveness, flexibility, perseverance, and humility are sufficient conditions for those who can be called great, outstanding, or remarkable presidents. However, using these principles as a guide undoubtedly makes a person's character more well-rounded and makes them more outstanding. What should the principles of a president be? By examining and analyzing the actions of historically great, outstanding, or remarkable presidents, we believe that the principles of a president should not be fewer than the following: loyalty to the nation, honesty and credibility, fairness and integrity, self-discipline, tolerance, universal love, farsightedness, calmness, courage, decisiveness, flexibility, perseverance, and humility. The meaning of each item is self-evident. This book is written for ordinary people. The characters and examples written in the book are mostly presidents, of course, including some outstanding non-presidential leaders such as Napoleon the Emperor and Winston Churchill the Prime Minister. The ultimate driving force pushing history forward is undoubtedly the people, but no one can deny that all the magnificent symphonies in history have been composed by the great handwriting of great figures—these great figures naturally include those who can be called great or remarkable presidents. Their influence spans not only one generation but sometimes even the entire history of humanity.
