We really should treat them like employees, consider campaigns as job applications, & employ them accordingly. Not this partisan stupidity.

Ok but I'm just saying Obama does a pretty solid job...other people not so much bjt I guess being the oresident is more of a figure ehad
TheLeafsAreActuallyGood
Of all the problems with politics this is like #894, and that's not even including all the ones Trump's caused since I started writing this
Imadethisaccountjusttosaythis
I don't care about my fellow employees tho
uponstrangeshores
This really irritated me when Obama came in, but since Trump happened I just kinda accept that this is how America is now.
StupidPeopleHurtMyHead
It's an ego thing

Government is not a private business.
TerryCrews
No, it's a public one.

Jay Z declined fervent offers from Obama to be his daughter's godfather on religious beliefs (Addison, 34. New York Press, 2011)
poopracket
So basically actually reprimand clinton and trump properly for the fucked up shit they did.b
SixOhFour
I hate when they're referred to as "elites." They aren't elites, they are public servants who are (supposed to) work for us.
gtothehizzle
How about treating celebrities like they know shit about shit
thatsnotaknifethisisaknife
I hate that shit. Like Gwenith's shitty shit shit
CountSnarkula
I have to laugh at Michele O complaining about Trump's talking about women when Beyonce and JayZ's lyrics are so raunchy and misogynist.

And that they are paid the combined average wage of their population. They make the economy better = they earn more,
ItsAGameOfSchlongs
Only administering the state, not ruling it
bacon25
And stop taking political advice from celebrities
dghammer
Or any other advise from them. They are not as special as their mamas say they are.
BurlRavenscroft
Politicians should be treated like teenagers constantly trying to pull a fast one
BurlRavenscroft
I question how parents can believe in trump. I guess they believe every obvious lie their kids ever said? Have they no bullshit detector?
thatsnotaknifethisisaknife
same question just directed toward Hillary. This is literally the shitiest shit
DrakonRax
But that's how the news get views nowadays.

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Perkalator
Stop treating celebrities as celebrities
Gandalftheblight
Or better yet, treat them like the kid that's works behind the subway counter. Except for how Jarod did, that's fucked up.
FormalShorts
He likes this meat young and fresh.
RhealityBytes
Except Jared never Worked for Subway, He just got thin, and Subway jumped on him like he jumped on little kids

The government should always be at least a little afraid of the people. Not the other way around.

This notion always seemed moronic to me. Public servants should serve, be accountable, and transparent to the public... not fear them.
WhatRaySay
sometimes I forget most of you are 15yrs old. the President is a uniquely "celebrity" position, you're using an infinitesimal sample size
Lastdarkninja
*single* most powerful person on the face of this green Earth,and having some status helps with diplomacy.
WhatRaySay
put it this way, the majority of people making this complaint can name less than 6 politicians in a country with over 500 at the state level
Xsiah
Like servants. Public servants.
NSAgent
But people who treat service workers like "servants" are dicks...
StormageddonDarkLordOfAllAKAAlfie
I'll have my afternoon tea in the conservatory, Kasich. Thank you kindly.
mibango
The rich treat them like servants
AuraArondight
Yeah, it's their job to keep us happy.
FormalShorts
Yet we keep the same ones.
HotelFourSix
Which? Celebrities or public servants?
AuraArondight
Yes.
DefinitelyNotTippster
It is?
LivingDecomposition
That's how it should work, but people don't use the system to replace the ones that don't.
bippityboppitybuttsex
Who treats them like celebrities?
LadyStarDust1847
Just about everyone.
bippityboppitybuttsex
No... I ran into my Congresscritter at the supermarket... I did not treat him like a celebrity, I was actually kind of an ass.
xoverthirtyx
People who think it's normal for politicians to be millionaires, untouchable, & holding office for decades.
bippityboppitybuttsex
How could the things you listed be described as anything other than normal? They are, in fact, the norm.
xoverthirtyx
We've always been at war with Eurasia!
bippityboppitybuttsex
Nu uh, we have always been at war with Oceania... you are so dumb.

To be fair, having long term institutional knowledge has been found to be a good things for technocrats. It's the newbies who play politics.
xoverthirtyx
The institutions are becoming the problem. This was meant to be a citizen government, the government is outbid touch w the citizenry.

If anything, your comment is really the pinnacle debate that America has always had going back to the federalist papers. It's nothing new.
lawlstudent
Look at the historical difference between the house and the senate or the moderating influence historically of SCOTUS.

Our citizenry is polarized and divided on every issue. If anything, the induction is what protects us from anarchy to a degree.
