I agree it does not qualify you to be an office. Just cuz you have a bunch of stupid opinions about a bunch of different topics. So does everyone including cab drivers. You are pretending that you have some font of wisdom, knowledge or experience. You don't.

How about we give up having politicians?

There need to be exams. Not even hard ones for people who paid attention in Civics class. It would eliminate the vast majority of the oafs and pretenders in office today.

Below are three very wrong assumptions of “qualified politicians.” There are many more: * Federal government has to borrow dollars from the non government sector * “Tax revenue” pays for Social Security * “deficit reduction” is “fiscally responsible”
