What is it a definition of? (02)

It seems that this is a definition of either a Presidency or a Role.
I note that the "Has start year", "Has end year", and "Has vice president"
predicates can also apply to the Presidency or the Role. It seems
strange to use the "Has name" predicate for the Presidency, less
strange for it to apply to the Role, and more reasonable for it to
apply to the Role Player. The temporal predicates do not apply to
the Role Player, but the final predicate could. (04)
"Is president of" could relate either the Presidency or the Role to
the topic of the page -- "United States" -- on which this definition
is found. (05)
