Well, maybe that's what's wrong here. Read this from a bygone era:

"We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human
passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge,
or gallantry, would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as
a whale goes through a net.  Our Constitution was made only for a moral
and religious people.  It is wholly inadequate to the government of any
other."

                          Address to the military

Oh yeah, that moral leadership is an evil thing.
