Have you seen what voters have been voting for lately?

Should we also have people directly vote for the head of the EPA?

Sounds like you're getting close to suggesting we shouldn't be voting for who runs the executive branch of the federal government either.

Just like the founding fathers intended.

Oh yeah? Please, continue to explain to me what I believe.

I don't think we should have votes for positions that should be appointed by the people we do vote for.

It's really not hard to understand.
