Imagine how much better the world would be if there was just a simple process of psychological screening for would-be politicians, and psychopaths were barred from holding office.

There should also be a limit on how stupid they’re allowed to be.

Smart people put political proxies in power so they can get on with living their life.

There are only two reasons to become a politician and STAY a politician, and Graham is no Sanders.

There is already, it’s the electoral process. But it selects for these people to hold office rather than bars them. It bars normal people.
