Seeing how easy it was for the democrats to change the rules to solidify the liberal agenda for the next couple of years at least...
Changing the rules for who is to be #2 and Speaker of the House of Representatives I imagine could be done...But seeing how you have to be elected to be a congressman, the Speaker is obviously drawn from those ranks...
Because they are accountable for their actions by the constituencies they represent, AND the other Representatives in that chamber...I do not see a way around the absolute corruption that could become, of placing an non-elected outsider, removed from partisan political affiliation...
An interesting thought, but I feel it will be used against us, more than it would help the overall situation...
