I'd support testing that was public - put candidates on a platform, run them thru at least some general knowledge, numeracy, critical reading, ask them to pick the most accurate of two eloquent speakers.. hell even Pin the tail on the Donkey would be a step up from the blowjobs that the cryptofascists get on tv news.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('smiley', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'T')he guy graduated from Yale, and you don't think he can pass an IQ test?
Honestly, I think he can't. And I'm sorry to say that I'm not kidding.So if you assume that he bought his way through Yale, why do you think he wouldn't be able to buy his way through an IQ test.
I say shoot them. Only way I can think of to distinguish those truely interested in the common good and get rid of all the self serving creeps.
To make sure the shooting is done fairly, we can sell lotery tickets to decide who gets to do the shooting. The candidates will then get the best of medical care at Walter Reed. Those who die will be regarded as heros and burried in a national cemetery.
