Reminds me of one of my favorite quotes from <i>Hitchhiker&#x27;s Guide</i>: “Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.”<p>It applies to cheating and, more generally, to the fact that political candidates—especially ones that are legitimately &quot;electable&quot;—tend to be incredibly self-selected, in ways that aren&#x27;t necessarily great for our actual leadership.
