Football Coaches, Politics, and Leadership

Here is an interesting article on football coaches and their political leanings. I paid particular attention to this quote:

"Others point out that Republicans tend to revere strong, singular executive leaders—a pretty good description of a coach."

It's interesting because I think many Republicans do like singular leadership, but the nature of conservatism also tends to make Republicans distrust those in power. I think a greater examination of political ideology and leadership views is called for (I'll get to work on that). In the meantime, enjoy the article.
