I love this campaign plank of
Ross Schriftman, who is running for a State House seat in Pennsylvania:
Ross Schriftman, candidate for the Democratic nomination in the 152nd Legislative District (Portions of Eastern Montgomery County and Northeast Philadelphia) has proposed that all legislators be required to attend an annual class to review Pennsylvania and U.S. Constitutional Law. Speaking before a crowd of 70 Upper Dublin Democrats on Sunday, Schriftman said "All professions require continuing education for their members. We should expect no less from those whose primary job it is to make the laws."
For those that live in Pennsylvania, there's a very prominent behavioral problem with Pennsylvania's state legislators - they skirt the rules, and sometimes completely ignore them, regularly. Some of those "rules" are actually state Constitution provisions. This is a great idea for Pennsylvania legislators, and probably most everywhere else as well. Are there any other candidates other there running on such a platform?
