She an authentic Flower Child and he the great

Northern Magus. Together they bequeathed to a

great country one who would follow in his father's

footprint. Inheriting from both mother and father

a flair for dramatic theatrics and in no small measure

reflecting their narcissistic personalities he learned

early how charm could exploit possibilities and

the giddy power invested in manipulating others

while affecting an aura of empathy and mutuality.

To his mother, this was her Golden Boy for the

sun threw its brilliance over him, never to set and

withdraw. It graced his countenance and followed

wherever he went, enabling him to convince

onlookers that he brought with him everywhere

Sunny Ways, to the extent that the jaded could

overlook his paucity of experience, education and

the simplicity of  his mind geared to entertain, not

govern. A smitten electorate elevated him to guide a

nation and for their trust in the shallowness of his

consideration of the country's heritage, culture and

values saw a dissolution of all that mattered in his

drive to replace those verities of national pride with

his own vision that denigrated the history of the nation

its people, their constitution and economy in a 

never-ending drivel of avowed virtue rotting all it

touched until the people cried in anguish: ENOUGH!
