Look around the world and see the qualifications of politicians and jobs they have. You'll find most are so far out of their depth it's a wonder anything works.

Look at who is competing with Hillary, the last batch of Presidents and hopefuls, Bush, Nixon, Reagan, Romney, and Palin. Clinton was the best of the bunch, bit crooked and like his BJs. As a President, he was pretty good. But, set in place the cause of Prime Mortgages. So not too clever.

The real problem is the people big money choose to put into office. The determine more than the electorate who you get, laws and policies and your life. Do away with the big money in all elections, then you might get someone more qualified and interested in the people, rather than getting enough money to run again.
