Do you ever get the feeling?

Do you ever get the feeling that Donald Trump, Chris Christie or our own Governor LePage would rather than be called Governor or President (if one got to be) be called "Supreme Leader?"

Would like a few opions.

I have read that there have been a high number of motorcycle accidents in Maine this year. A number have resulted in deaths. I road a bike back in the very early sixties on the west coast and I know they are unforgiving. I live on a rural road with a lake a mile away and there is a lot of traffic in the summer. I see many bike riders with only a pair of short and sandals ride by. I know that helmets, boots, gloves and leathers greatly improve the odds of survival from past experience. We have mandatory laws for seat belts for cars so why not a few of the basics for motorcycles? You folks who ride might give me some insight.
