I would like to be part of a modest democratic experiment wherein we only elect people who really don't want to hold the office, but are nonetheless very qualified and capable.
Seems like there should be a set of decision trees that could accomplish this, or at least dramatically whittle down the possible candidate pool. Someone mentioned the term selective service and that sounds like a fairly apt description of what I mean.
Also, probably some latter part of this process would involve a battery of psychological tests, mainly just to minimize the chances that our country is run by psychopaths, narcissists, etc.
