Respect Demanded

     The President is the Commander-in-Chief
        of every US military force
     which makes it a very important office, of course

     The person who holds it must command 
        respect from the troops
     if esprit de corps is not to droop

     His face should be inscrutable to
        our many foes  
     never revealing whatever he knows… 

     Someone who giggles and laughs
        at inappropriate times
     brazenly this country undermines
