Here's the problem with the "We need to," "We must" line of rhetoric.
I could say "We have to have a law that prohibits fascist parties from running in elections, like Germany." Well, that's nice, and you could argue up and down whether it's a good idea or not. But it's more to the point that such a law has no way to get passed when the fascists it would effect would be the ones that would have to pass it.
The same goes for "We need to eliminate the electoral college," "We need to tax churches," "We need proportional representation to eliminate gerrymanders," "We need to get rid of the filibuster," etc.
It's asking the foxes to vote for a better lock on the henhouse.
@DavidSalo A literal sanity check and balance on who can run vs. who can't would be nice.
Ban convicted felons from running
@DavidSalo a convicted felon won't be expected to go tough on crime, let alone ban felons from running for POTUS
