Some have been discussing new eligibility criteria for
candidates. That would constitute new rules.</div>
</blockquote><p class="">Agreed. I would suggest to view that discussion as more of a
"what's desirable attributes for the successful candidate".
Hopefully the electorate agrees about this, and we can identify
appropriate candidates and vote for them rather than based on some
other criteria.<br class="">
