The other problem is that most Republicans are interested in successful careers that don’t including elective office.
The Democrats have a larger pool of candidates-those who believe that government at all levels, especially, the national level, can solve all of the problems of the world.

I’m not so sure I can agree with you there. From what I’ve seen the Dems are simply more interested in lifetime employment for them and their ilk, with huge pensions and priviledges. For them the “problems of the world” are just a vehicle to get the voters attention.
