A Constitutionalist Types

An old clown named Stanley Fish really likes "Going Rogue." And tells you why in The NYT.

And someone who agrees w/ him weighs in:
The real job of president is to lead the American people on a true and straight course via heartfelt inspiration and to use the power of the veto to deter outlandish bills from Congress. I feel she is quite capable of doing both well and that she certainly could do better than most recent presidents in regards to these two basic job requirements.
Thank you again for your honest and objective review.
Shouldn't there be some sort of literacy or basic awareness test for voters? An EEG or something that would indicate any brain activity beyond autonomic responses?

Ah, yessssss . . . except that their more-perfect candidate could not pass either . . . BY DESIGN.

S/he only has to be able to follow orders well.

So, breathing is sufficient.

Testing Editor Thinks:

Anon is right. Maybe we should test the candidates first.
