Several candidates are running for office this year. Yet, it seems every day there’s a new revelation about one politician or another about something in their past. Bloomberg is a case in point. I believe the problem is that there isn’t an application for candidates to complete before they’re allowed to run for office. Applications are required for jobs, colleges, driver licenses, etc. Why isn’t there an application requirement for candidates? The entire situation cries out for one.
As a community service I offer up a draft application that could be easily be adopted for candidates wishing to run for office.
Of course, there’s the normal heading. Then come the following questions:
