Writer's Block: State of the Union

Someone who does not WANT to be President, but who will serve if called.

I think high-level politics should be very Zen. Those who wish to be president or senator or representative are not qualified, because of that desire. Those who do not wish that job, may be qualified.

Actually, I'd say for all national elected positions.

Not that it will ever be enacted, or that there aren't a lot of problems with it, but I DO want something done about career politicians who are in it for the egoboo and personal power.

How about if we make it court-ordered public service for white-collar criminals? Would we notice a difference?

Unconstitutional. Cruel and Unusual punishment.

Cruel and unus... and the current system isn't?

Oh, you meant for the criminals.
