There are quite a number of people I know personally who do. None of them are well-known, but I think that's the idea: Get successful people of character, intellect and wisdom from the real world to lend their talents to the country for a term or two.

Our current system appears to attract the most corrupt, mediocre, self-serving and psychopathic among us. We wouldn't have done any better populating govt with these losers had we tried.

Sorry, I didn't do a very good job at phrasing that question.

Has there been a person(s) in a nationally elected office, in your lifetime or not, who has met that criterion?
