>I'll continue to say this - I'd prefer a constitutional amendment that only full-term governors can become president. Doesn't mean a full-term governor will make a great president - but really, the executive experience is critical.

Well, it won't be hard to find people with extensive political experience.
The federal prisons are running out of space for them.
We can save solve that problem and save a lot of money if we issue a bunch of pardons and we'll have lots of candidates.

Nice to see my old state, NY, leading the charge. I expect to see some of my Long Island and Hamilton leaders joining the list soon.
Of course, NY and NJ don't have murderers like some of the other states.
My people just block commuters and take huge bribes.

Do you seriously think that someone like Chris Christie - who if he doesn't join this list, should - would a priori have been a better president than Ike, JFK or LBJ?
