I am mentally exhausted as a columnist, because virtually every week, I complain again and again about the same troubles afflicting our country and I proffer advice on how to move things forward. However, no one in authority appears interested in listening to, not to talk of acting on, any advice. Today, our vocation as critics of constituted authority is under threat.

Like many of your supporters, I campaigned for you , assured people that you are the man for the job, citing history, your ascetic and reticent virtues.
