Real leadership does not operate on the basis of fear or intimiation. It is committed to doing the right thing for the long run. It operates on the basis of principle.

Amen!

That bears repeating.

And reinforcing...

“I would rather be beaten and be a man than to be elected and be a little puppy dog. I have always supported measures and principles and not men. I have acted fearless[ly] and independent and I never will regret my course. I would rather be politically buried than to be hypocritically immortalized.”

-- Davy Crockett
