    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.

        Vice had a short documentary segment on Cherán, which kicked out their corrupt police, a cartel and outlawed political parties, and now their government is elected by show of hands. They had an interview with one of the candidates who used to work at a university, who said they actually didn’t want to be elected because it was a massive cut to their salary, but it’s the will of the people and it looked like they would be the favorite candidate.
