My Take: Time to rethink how we elect our leaders

It is no secret that politicians are often influenced by big businesses and their agendas. The sad truth is that they often prioritize their own interests over those of the people they represent. The media also plays a role in this corruption by pushing certain narratives and agendas that align with the interests of big businesses. As a result, the true issues facing our country are often overshadowed by irrelevant distractions.

Unfortunately, the recent political climate has only inflamed this issue. With the rise of politicians like Donald Trump, who prioritize sensationalism and lies over real issues, it has become even more difficult to have productive conversations about the problems our country faces. We must recognize the influence of big businesses on our political system and work to hold our leaders accountable for their actions. Only then can we hope to create a government that truly serves the needs of the people.

It seems like everyone is tired of hearing about Trump, even some of his supporters are ready for a change. However, he still manages to grab the media's attention with his controversial statements and actions. It's frustrating to see how our political system has become an extension of corporate interests, where lobbyists hold more power than the population. When was the last time we heard about an issue that served the entire population?

Therefore, it's time to rethink how we elect our leaders, especially those who wield the most power. This includes the President, Senators, and Congressmen. We need a new system that is not influenced by corporate interests and lobbyists. My take on this is quite simple: let's elect leaders who truly represent the people, not the corporations. It's time for a change in our political system.

We propose a comprehensive set of reforms for the election process to ensure that the most qualified candidates are chosen to represent the people. Our proposal includes the following measures: 

- The elimination of lobbyists, political parties, and all forms of funding for candidates.

- Absolutely no campaigning in any form

- An age limit of 65 years old and a term limit of two 4-year terms.

- All candidates must submit a resume based on experience and education and have at least a Political Science degree.

- All candidates must take and pass an extended physical and mental exam.

- A special TV station used only for debate, which is free and accessible to everyone.

- All approved candidates (no more than 10) will participate in extensive debates and answer questions submitted by the people.

- A moderator will be chosen based on experience or education.

- The people will vote electronically for the candidates they feel are the most qualified.

- After four weeks, there will be two candidates standing, one each from a liberal and conservative platform.

NOW it will be time to vote. 

We believe that these reforms will result in a fair and transparent election process, where candidates are chosen based on their qualifications and abilities, rather than their financial resources or political connections.
