Now if his administration could inspire and lead fledgling administrations the world over to taste and see that democracy is for them!
Contrary to autocrats, democracy does not replace them. Once a President is no longer the current President, he enters the challenging phase of becoming statesman and adviser to his country's administration--still playing a vital role in the political affairs of his country. In the United States, the former Presidents form an ad hoc exclusive club, to my mind!
The point is, a President's knowledge and wherewithal is not set aside but used mightily to the advantage of the country's wealth and well-being of its citizenry. And yes, occasionally, coming back as President, e.g., see Lulu in Brazil.
