re: Movie stars, politicians, athletes, Military men .......who would the leaders be?

Won't be popular, but I think that actors have a good ear for what people want to hear and tend to be articulate communicators with access to emotion. Their problem comes from that they're only really around each other. If you extract them from that, I think they're the most suited to inspire
I think that Reagan's ability to lead came from his trained ability to trigger emotions in his viewer.
Military leaders might be less impactful without the structure of a chain of command. Likely more boss than leader. People will work for a boss, but they might not follow one.
Politicians are too untrustworthy, and they don't value accountability.
Athletes are probably prone to be the best executors, but can be less accountable, too.

The key is getting that guy who can score (hunt fouls) and surround him with shooting and defense
Imagine if our foul hunter is supported by a coach and front office willing to challenge authority to get him to the line.

I just hope this concert has an enough of that stuff to offset the latest snoozer of an album.
It didn't. One of my least favorite concerts. New album no one liked in its entirety, followed by some favorites, but also some obscure. The obscure paired with the new album tipped the scales for me.

That was certainly one of those weird mergers where the acquirer and acquiring leadership think they know more because they did the acquiring, but they really know nothing about good scripted content. It's one thing for Discovery to acquire the Food Network, totally different to buy the catalogue of WB IPs.

Viacom doesn’t own WB, though, so your aim is off.

With the exception of my three dress shoe pairs which are still the original dress laces and two pairs of clarks boots, I have switched out all my laces for elastic laces. I originally got them so my 11-yo with high functioning autism (terrible tactile coordination) didn’t get made fun of by classmates for having velcro. Then I just got jealous. I have them on all my athletic shoes, J&M leather sneakers, and two pairs of Cole Haan knit zeroes.

I'm generally against Constitutional amendments because we have too many constitutional protections as is. Because this one shifts items away from constitutional protection, though, I'm for it.
