such as degrees and intellectually up to the job very amusing if not hypocritical.
If we were to use intellectually up to the job as the measurement whether all the incumbents in any office State or Federal at any level pass or fail.....boy would we have a deluge of failing grades.
And they have the knack of being re-elected by their apathetic constituents down to a science.
The other phraseology that is totally inconsistent with the reality actual "governing" of today is any indication there is representation in any aspect of a politicians agenda....it simply does not exist anymore.

The preamble to the constitution has gone by the wayside...long ago...both parties....no exceptions!!!

In my humble opinion.
