Why, because he's an OUTSIDER, or because he's a MURDERER?
There's nothing inherently immoral about picking an outsider. Trust the state to choose their representatives.
And the Founders would tell them what they are doing is wrong, wrong, wrong.
Actually, no. The Founders believed in states' rights.
If they saw a moral issue here, they would have written a stricter residency requirement in the Constitution.
Both you and WOSG want a "constitutional requirement" on residency, and I'm here to tell you (and you really know this, don't you?) that it was such COMMON KNOWLEDGE that the representatives would not come from another state that they didn't even bother putting this stuff in there. It's like the notion (pre-1913) that any money would ever be issued without gold backing. It was just nuts.
But go ahead. Let's get Keyes nominated, then he'll get whipped badly, and the next time it's going to be some elite Hollywood type who has name recognition and lots of money blowing into Nebraska or Wyoming and you guys will be crying in your beer. Have at it.
