What would the government do if absolutely anybody could nominate *any* candidate for president?

You mean if no body really votes? well there will be a serius problem with the nation.

Then they wud have to redo it

I think there would be far too many nominations and not enough voters.

The governing government would not be so foolish to push this policy through. Normal people like you and I can select who we want as a president or prime minister by voting for the party this person is from, but we do not have the powers to do anything except votes. Candidates can promise the world and say they will provide this and that in order to buy our votes, but once they are in government, the promises they have made to the voters tend to be broken and given crap excuses for not following through with the promises…As much as the idea that anyone can be candidates sounds extremely appealing, I would hate to think what type of people we would get as candidates. Do people really want candidate/s who are narrow minded bigots or so religious they demand everyone must become Muslims, Christians etc? Or candidates who are dumb and have no knowledge of any political or world matters and you want them to make decisions on your behalf and run the country??? I suppose if Sarah Palin can become a potential president candidate, there is hope for those out there who are dumb and lacking brain cells and think they are worthy to govern the country.
