I have long said it should be like the Miss America pageant: every state sends one rep, then there are different rounds of the competition, including a Q&A like you describe. Maybe even some of them have talent!
Then there are rounds of voting and we neck down until Top 2 are POTUS and VP.

The Flattening: Part 2 How Cruelty Became the Default

We keep asking, why do these people vote against their own interests, as if the answer were a riddle or a trick of ignorance.

But we know the truth.

We’ve seen it.

Read The Flattening: Part 2. It’s not about policy. It never was.

11th Circuit blocks Florida anti-drag law, while Florida vows to appeal. "Laws without discernible standards threaten enforcement that is 'impermissibly based on content or viewpoint,'" wrote Judge Robin Rosenbaum as she sided with Florida drag show venue Hamburger Mary's.

The Bro Mentality is a toxic brew of chest-thumping mediocrityβ€”a fraternity of power-drunk egos that crushes progress under the weight of its own ignorance. Women? Marginalized. Minorities? Silenced. The American Dream reduced to a sweaty locker room.

It’s not β€œAmerica First” to pull the rug out from under an ally and leave their people to die. This kind of foreign policy will end with no one in the world trusting America. Our alliances give us strength and the damage being done makes our country weaker and us all less safe.

Musk calls Sen. Kelly a 'traitor' over trip to Ukraine, Kelly hits back Elon Musk called Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly a "traitor" in a post on X after Kelly posted that he had visited Ukraine over the weekend.

Defending freedom is a basic tenet of what makes America great and keeps us safe. If Elon doesn't understand that, maybe he should leave it to those of us who do.
