| Summary | "A Sermon Delivered before His Excellency Levi Lincoln, Governor, His Honor Thomas L. Winthrop Lieutenant Governor, the Hon. Council, the Senate, and House of Representatives of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, on the Day of General Election, May 28, 1828" by James Walker is a religious discourse presented as a sermon, likely written in the early 19th century. This book addresses the moral responsibilities of citizens in a democratic society, emphasizing the importance of character and integrity in public office. In this sermon, James Walker reflects on the significant role that the electorate plays in determining the quality of its leaders, cautions against the influence of bad public figures on societal morals, and stresses that the private character of individuals deeply affects their public effectiveness. He articulates the challenging climate of political factions and the risks of electing leaders based on popularity rather than merit. Walker underscores the legacy of virtuous leadership in American history, particularly during the nation's formative years, and he calls for a return to principles of honesty and capability in governance, while also imploring listeners to maintain vigilance in preserving the values of their democracy.
