    I'd settle for requiring any candidate for political office to first pass (with at least an 85% score) the same test that is given to immigrants applying for US citizenship...

    I have serious doubts that most of the potential candidates for president could manage that.

    And he thinks they have to apply for citizenship

    I said applying for citizenship, not benefits of citizenship.

    Perhaps we should move towards a sort of jury duty type appointment for everything from school boards, city councils, state representatives, even Congress? Once a minimum level of qualification is met, citizens serve their term and that's it. No self-promoting, wanna-be career politicians with activist driven agendas.
    I've also thought we'd have more political success with this kind of method than our current primaries/elections, even as screwed up as it would be.

    Guess what, random soccer mom, you're the US president, kicking, screaming, helicopters abduct you into the Whitehouse.

    Would they screw everything up? YES. But, admittedly far less than the current candidates we field.

    More trouble for the princess.

    On Saturday night, three years to the day after supporters of Donald Trump attacked the U.S. Capitol building, election objecting Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) is the subject of an active police investigation into an alleged physical altercation with her ex-husband, Jayson Boebert, at a restaurant in her district Saturday night.

    Not too biased, eh?

    Jayson Boebert told The Daily Beast... that his ex-wife had "punched" him in the face multiple times.

    Like I said earlier, he's pure WT, as is she. Her judgment should be questioned for simply breeding 4 additional WT mouth breathers with this douche

    “Every good citizen makes his country's honor his own, and cherishes it not only as precious but as sacred. He is willing to risk his life in its defense and is conscious that he gains protection while he gives it.” Andrew Jackson

    A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up to and including my life.'

    That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.
