Title: The President should always a majority Post by Auggie on Mar 15th, 2020 at 9:02pm
In a presidential form of government, the worse thing is to have divided government where Congress is of one party and the President is of the other. This form of divided government is paralyzing and erodes the faith of government in the minds of the people.
The best way to ensure smooth and efficient government is to guarantee a majority to the President in Congress. The most effective way of achieving this is to allow the President to appoint one-third of the total number of seats in Congress. Given that enough people would support the President's party in congressional elections, the one-third appointees would effectively guarantee a legislative majority for the President. This makes sense, given that the President was elected to implement an agenda. By having members appointed by the President, this would give more support to the President and for his/her policies. |

Not at all, Yadda. At least no more than you. We accept the government and the House of Reps being of the same party in our system, so why should it be different in a presidential form of government with a bill of rights? |

Can you explain why it's acceptable for Australia to have a system where the executive and the legislative are of the same party but not so for a president form of government? |

Nah, not at all Dnarever. Auggie is way more unhinged, than myself. [wink] |

I think proposing better ways to govern is less 'unhinged' than proposing that we lock up all Muslims and their children. |

Auggie, Instead of proposing 'improvements' to government, ....in places like the U.S.A. and Australia, why haven't you proposed ways of improving the governing of places like Sudan, Somalia, Turkey, Pakistan, et al ? Hmmmm ? Too 'close to the bone' for you, your own bone ? |

Because drafting a new constitution in those countries isn't going to do anything to help them; whereas in America and Australia it will. |

Auggie, But you could propose improvements, to governing, ....in places like Sudan, Somalia, Turkey, Pakistan. And if your friends recognised what 'a good idea' your suggestions were, well, perhaps they [persons within those nations] would be inspired, to try to enact your suggestions. Why don't you lobby the peoples of those failed [or failing] states ? Those are places, in particular, which would benefit out of all proportion, to the benefits of tweaking the political systems in places like the U.S.A. and Australia ! |

Them's how the votes fall..... sorry 'bout that... if there is a lame duck it's for a good reason behind the voters and their thoughts...
You seem to love any form of absolutism..... as if there is a Divine Right of Elected Government... in a democracy such a thing is anathema... it may work in China and Russia etc, as far as it does work - it wouldn't work here. |

You are discussing here one of the reasons the common people are pushing for change.... the current system is not doing its job for the people, but is working for the parties. It is not actually acceptable..... it just is. |

I note, as a sidebar here , that the AusGuv is going to deport the entire family of one of the third party arranged accident scammers. He and all his family are on the boat.... on the backload ..... There is precedent here..... we'll only lock up the good Muslims until they can prove themselves good citizens... bread and water for a while should bring most of them around... get their minds right... no more failure to communicate... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=452XjnaHr1A |
