I don't like the equivocation of "President" and "King." It's not even technically accurate. A king is not an executive; he's a legislator. His marshalls and sheriffs are executives.

It is about Kings and Kings of Kings, and the end result (they have the end goal right there in the Bible) is a Kingdom on earth, headed by someone who is not chosen (well, I guess he might be by those that aren't slaughtered beforehand).
​
Yeah, exactly. I'm not interested in living in the Kingdom of Jesus; I'd prefer a democratically-elected leader.
