Despite them being good people it would defacto be a step closer to Idiocracy.

We want leaders who've built a career doing things.

Speaking truth to power is an entirely different skillset.

    I fully agree in concept, but i fear our career politicians (even the best ones) are corrupted or at least working complicately in a fully corrupt system.

    I don't think that talk show hosts are the answer. Although, Stewart at least is 100% up to speed on political matters which is more than I can say about some presidents.

    Doing things doesn't necessarily mean politics. Could mean education, or administration, or front line work. Real life experience that qualifies someone to be in charge of things.
