For American Patriots (classic variety, not the ultra-Left nor ultra-Right type), POTUS is the highest position to which one can aspire or attain. Viewed in that light, honors are due and properly rendered for one who has served in that position.
Presidents lie in state in the Capitol Rotunda. James Brown is going to lie in state at the Apollo Theater in Harlem.
All is right with the world.
