Is This Real Life? Washington Post Argues in Headline, "It's Time to Give the Elites a Bigger Say in Choosing the President"
As a friend notes: They're not even hiding it any longer.
Her idea seems to be that the current primary system, in which citizens actually vote, fails to always produce candidates acceptable to the elites. So she proposes a system where in citizens actually elect "delegates" -- drawn from the elite, of course -- who are merely "informed" by voter's choice, but who are the ones who ultimately decide on a candidate. We've seen this tactic again and again -- the elite attempts to insulate itself from actual democracy by instilling layers and layers of governments and representatives and bureaucracies, trying to put as many protective barriers and possible between the people's will and their own private selfish choices. The EU is exactly this on a continental scale. Once again, Berthold Brecht's "Solution" comes to mind.
It’s time to give the elites a bigger say in choosing the president
FEBRUARY 18, 2020 by Julia Anzari Julia Azari is an associate professor and assistant chair in the Department of Political Science at Marquette University. This is the third op-ed in a series about how to improve the presidential nominating process.
Die Losung (The Solution) After the uprising of the 17th of June
The Secretary of the Writers' Union
Had leaflets distributed on the Stalinallee
Stating that the people
Had forfeited the confidence of the government
And could only win it back
By increased work quotas. Would it not in that case be simpler
for the government
To dissolve the people
And elect another?
You are making satire so much harder to write Julia. Not cool. pic.twitter.com/bTiL20uVyo

And there's a system to vote at least first and second choice or even first second and third choice.
Because the goal is to select a candidate with the widest appeal in the party. Everyone should still pick their number one, but not be twisted in knots trying to figure out "who can win". So honestly pick your first, second, and third choices and it's possible to figure that out. Maybe top two up to six candidates and top tree if there are more.
Though if the party wants to select delegates to merely consider your vote, they should be able to do that.
Or if they want to have an auction in a smoke filled back-room, then they can do that.

Net payer.
If you pay money into the system, you get to vote on how the system operates
If you receive money from the system, you don't.
This gets rid of the ability for people to vote themselves money from the treasury.

Capitalism works around this by making the natural selfish and greedy tendencies of people work for the greatest good to the greatest number of people. We need to figure out an electoral system of this sort; one that turns selfish laziness and desire for handouts into the biggest benefit for the nation as a whole.

Ann and I recently read an informative and refreshing piece in the Washington Post proposing that the better-educated and well-placed in our public discourse should have a weightier say in choosing the best-abled nd most moral public servants to preside over our public and civic affairs.
This intriguing proposal is something that we both support as a way to gain bipartisan support and end the politics of personal division we are experiencing today.

I have come to the conclusion that certain matters are best handled by certain groups. That is the elite should never be able to vote on matters of morality for example. My general guiding principle is that the affected party is the one that votes on a matter, restrict taxation and military service to the elite for instance, and they may go to war and spend the tax money as they please. So instead of a dual legislature, independent legislatures which have joint authority on some issues.

What a totally radical idea.
In fact, it would be even better if it could be raised another level, where the people who the masses voted for then voted for electors who would make the final selection.
And maybe even arrange things so that other popularly elected people would caucus to select the candidates, while that first group would just be selecting the people who would choose between them.
If only they had come up with something like when they were writing the Constitution!

The income tax instituted a State run system of Peasantry. You literally owe your labor to the State.
Except that as a Peasant, you only usually owed ONE day per week to your Lord, or a bit less than 17% of your labor.
We also now RENT our land in most States, due to Property Tax laws, because if you do not pay your 'rent' (tax) they literally throw you from your land, and sell it to someone else.
Everything old, is new again, just under a different name.

We already do select for 'elites' against direct democracy. That is the Legislative Branch. The Senate used to be another buffer, when state legislatures were choosing for it.
The President is the tribune of the people, itself buffered by means of the Electoral College. That is good enough.
If anything the 'elites' in the media / education / government-agency nexus have become a fourth branch unaccountable to any of the branches which the Constitution allows. They need, at the least, to be formally acknowledged as either Executive or Judicial, and assigned accordingly. Fire anybody enforcing 'regulations' that go beyond scope.

Bernie now projected to have an all but insurmountable delegate lead after Super Tuesday https://t.co/fqwCJMmIop
"Another reminder that, although tonight's debate sort of matters, it doesn't really matter. I suppose Bernie could say something out of the blue that would instantly ruin his chances, like "Taxes are bad" or "Epstein really did kill himself."
But barring that, there's no reason to think any centrist candidate can reverse the trend in this race before it becomes irreversible.
It's worth noting that Nate Silver's model still has Sanders on pace to fall short of a majority of delegates, which would trigger a contested convention. But (a) he'll have a near-majority, far ahead of the second-place candidate, which will guarantee his nomination anyway, and (b) the model also assumes that both Mike Bloomberg and Joe Biden will continue to pile up delegates in primaries for months to come, which seems unlikely. Bloomy has the dough to run all the way to the convention but Biden, barring a revival in South Carolina and on Super Tuesday, does not. Which may be cause for hope for centrists: If all of the delegates projected to go to Biden in Silver's model went to Bloomberg instead, Bloomy and Bernie would be practically tied by convention time.
That's far-fetched, though. Here's the hard reality:
Nate Silver
@NateSilver538
Average projected delegates through Super Tuesday:
Sanders 608 (41% of delegates thru March 3)
Bloomberg 273 (18%)
Biden 270 (18%)
Buttigieg 157 (10%)
Warren 127 (8%)
Klobuchar 55 (4%)
...Maybe tonight's debate will help clarify things, but I doubt it. I keep thinking that the only encouraging thing about a Trump vs. Sanders election is that one side or the other will treat the outcome as a reason to rethink populism, but since we live in the worst timeline now, that's probably not how it'll shake out. It'll probably end in a 269-269 tie with both parties convinced that the only way to win in 2024 is to double down."

So, yes, Ms. Anzari, I wholeheartedly agree with your dictate that the elite, which is to say Trump, should select who is president. My hope is that he will select himself until he is tired of presidenting and then hands it off to his son and then his son's son.
This, Ms. Anzari, is the wisdom that has been so lacking in our self-appointed betters class for so long. So kudos to you for your bold leadership and fine plan for Trump4Eva.

George Zimmerman is suing Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg for defamation over tweets the two sent on what would have been Martin's 25th birthday.

Obama, Inc. is probably behind the BootyGig. With all the opposition dropping daily on Itty Bitty Bloomberg I don't think the establishment is going to allow him to buy a coronation. Too many fiefdoms to let some would be emperor rock the boat.

It really is a perfect storm of suck for the Dems. Whom to choose? A poster boy for senility who's never won a single primary in his life, a deranged superannuated commie with a bad ticker, a flaming faggot who's never done anything, a pathological lying HOA Nazi scold, a half-pint authoritarian billionaire with the personality of a wet toilet seat, a do-nothing gal who eats salad with a comb, a totally unhinged billionaire ranting about impeachment and global warming, or Hillarhoid waiting in the wings?

As if Martin wouldn't have been in prison, or dead by someone else's hand, by age 25.

For what it's worth, Trump should pardon Stone and Flynn right now.

Indian drumming: boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
What the hell is that? A 1/1 rhythm?
How does a civilization exist for 19,000 years and never advance to a more complex beat?
Think about the complexity of a Buddy Rich solo. Carl Palmer. Neil Peart.
Think about that, then think about how Native Americans NEVER advanced.

The result of the 64 convention was the 1968 convention. The result of the 1968 convention was the destruction of the old-line Democratic Party and its skin-suit-ification by the New Left.

I'm looking forward to how they do that when he has a clear majority of delegates.
Spoiler: They won't do it then.

That said, associate professor rank at Marquette probably doesn't confer the elite status in society at large as she thinks/hopes it does.

I want the exact opposite. Any government employment prohibits you from ever voting in the future. Any employment for companies that contract with the government as well.
If the government wants more money, they should need to convince people who don't earn their living off taxpayer money.

A bonus would be that registered voters who are not dues-paying members of "their" party would no longer be conned into believing they have a say. Or in the alternative, they would pony up and then start demanding to actually have one.

In a passably just world, he would win. Justice is a rare accident in this country.

It would certainly end the practice of non-property owners voting themselves more and more entitlements.
