When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan.
The quality of government depends far more on good leaders than laws.
When you become entitled to exercise the right of voting for public officers, let it be impressed on your mind that God commands you to choose for rulers just men who will rule in the fear of God. The preservation of a republican government depends on the faithful discharge of this duty.
He who is void of virtuous attachments in private life is, or very soon will be, void of all regard for his country. There is seldom an instance of a man guilty of betraying his country, who had not before lost the feeling of moral obligations in his private connections.
All history is a witness to the truth of the principle that good morals are essential to the faithful and upright discharge of public function morals character of a man is an entirely in - devisable thing it cannot be pure in one part and defiled in another. Corruption of morals is ramped enough in any country without a bounty from the government and the chief magistrate of the United States the president should be the last man to celebrate his progress.
Proverbs 16:12 It is an abomination for kings to commit wickedness, For a throne is established by righteousness.
A reporter wrote of president Calvin Collage, you just have confidence in Collage, he may not do what you want him to do. He may not do what you think he ought to do, but you know he has done his best to do what’s right.
Pro 24:24 Whoever says to the wicked, “You are in the right,”
will be cursed by peoples, abhorred by nations,
Pro 24:25 but those who rebuke the wicked will have delight,
and a good blessing will come upon them.
Mercy and truth preserve the king, And by lovingkindness, he upholds his throne.
Open your mouth for the speechless, In the cause of all who are appointed to die.
A wise king sifts out the wicked, And brings the threshing wheel over them.

Proverbs 31:1 The words of King Lemuel, the utterance which his mother taught him:
2 What, my son?
And what, son of my womb?
And what, son of my vows?
3 Do not give your strength to women,
Nor your ways to that which destroys kings.
4 It is not for kings, O Lemuel,
It is not for kings to drink wine,
Nor for princes intoxicating drink;
5 Lest they drink and forget the law,
And pervert the justice of all the afflicted.
6 Give strong drink to him who is perishing,
And wine to those who are bitter of heart.
7 Let him drink and forget his poverty,
And remember his misery no more.
