@dalias And you're not cherry picking something to stop this one guy?
Your N+1 thing is not well defined. Truman and Eisenhower were generals, does that count? Are you allowed to jump straight into being a state governor or do you need to serve on a school board or something first? Bush Sr wasn't _elected_ CIA director, nor was Hillary elected Secretary of State.
"Democracy isn't good enough, we need to stop people from voting for candidates I don't like" is more often about racism/sexism...
