In a Write-in Election, We Seek Leaders, Instead of of Them Seeking Us

   Never has there been a write-in election, has there? No, at least not since early times, and not in any substantial race in any of our 50 states. This is a new idea. And, I like it.
   No one's name is listed on the ballot. Every vote is a write-in vote.
   This would reap a shift towards drafting people into office. We could vote for those even though they weren't offering themselves as candidates. We would be more inclined to vote that way. It would be (more so) our call on whether they were to be our leader, not theirs. We would be seeking our leaders (more so), not them seeking us.
   I've often wondered if the folks who set up the Constitution, when they created the Electoral College, weren't trying to create this type of a system, one in which good people were drafted for the presidency. It seems, the way it was envisioned, the duty of the members of the Electoral College was to go out and find someone fit for the office, not from a list of those announcing for they wanted it, but just from a list compiled by the electors, themselves, of people who ought to be in that high position.
   I like the idea of a write-in election, I do.
