But a Democratic president has to be a person of extraordinary courage, conviction, integrity, and charisma, like Joe Biden, Barack Obama, and Jimmy Carter, plus have many years of governing experience. If they don't have these things or if they have what is perceived of as a flaw, such as being up there in years, all of the GOP, all the Repube voters, and almost all of the media jumps their shit.

Those are exactly the qualities they hate because they are "elititist."
