    Write a 2-page essay, by hand, covering why the US Constitution lays out the government it does. Do this alone with a proctor watching. The paper will be anonymously graded by a panel of high school teachers. If you get less than an A, you can’t run.

    Also take AP Government and History tests. Also need an A on those.

    Finally, live 6 months on your country’s median income in your country’s capital city. No outside help. Apply for, and take on a job where you aren’t “running” something, but rather “doing” something.

    Hidden camera, ‘abandoned’ box of fundraising candy with a few bars left and an envelope of money ($80). The bottom of the box has a mailing sticker on it to Jamal Brown’s address (that is actually to a low rent accomplice’s home). The trick is finding a likely place the candidate would reasonably find this while alone. Does candidate leave it or take it? Does the box make it to the address intact?

    No religious affiliation. No investments. Masters in any of the social sciences/humanities. Business majors excluded without exception. No crippling debt (normal debt is fine, just don’t be someone who owes the mob or the Russians or something). Ideally a member of some sort of marginalized community.

    Someone humbled and without any aspirations for power. Basically, I want someone in power who very much does not want power.

    ‘President’ is mostly a ceremonial office, so they should be able to smile and wave, entertain any visiting dignitaries, and read out whatever speeches Parliament writes for them in a pleasant voice. A feel-good origin story would be a nice bonus.
