In fact, very often there are no competency requirements at all, although age and (sometimes) gender restrictions are common enough (and ironically these often have nothing to do with competence). And this is why the founding fathers did not want a true democracy for this nation, rather a Democratic Republic. No, they wanted (and got) a Representational Constitutional Republic. Starting with FDR, liberals have been struggling mightly to slowly and inexhorably convert it to a Democracy, AKA 'Mob Rule'. Try at least 40 years earlier. -- Matt Barrow Performace Homes, LLC.
