Is the system we use to hire presidents broken?

Our hiring system seems to give too much weight entertainers rather than competent executives.
Is that a product of allowing the least among us to have too much voice in the hiring process?
Don't blame the candidates, blame the HR department.
Universal suffrage is a bad idea.

The only people who should be able to vote are the following:
Employed in the private sector
Active military
Veterans
Retirees
Business owners

Might as well be Socrates' own words, he warned of demagogues and pure democracy.
The problem is the criteria for being allowed to vote and who controls that criteria.

A basic literacy test would be a fair compromise

Why not go back to the original requirements in the constitution.
The main requirement was land ownership

No. The system is only as good as the people. We get the kind of government we deserve.

I would like someone to have a good credit score to be eligible to vote.

That is a step away from a social credit score, but you do you.

We already have a social credit score.

You could have the best criteria in the world but it comes down to who is counting the votes

Not sure we have to go that far.
There does seem to be a correlation between the quality of the hiring manager and the quality of the candidates selected.

Trying to eliminate yourself from the voting pool, eh?

Any idiot can own land. Voting should be done by those with skin in the game.

Good point. That was an exception.
Entertainment wasn't the big driver in that one, fear was.
But for Covid, Biden would not have won.
