I would not trust any politician who says “I have no idea what policies I should be proposing once I get elected, so I want to hear your ideas.” Such a politician is either an idiot or a liar.

A politician with intelligence and integrity would say something like “If I’m elected, I will try to get the government to do X, Y, and Z. If you have any particular ideas about how to accomplish these goals, or if you want to try and convince me I’m wrong, I welcome your feedback.”



Indeed. Perhaps the site will provide good data for potential leaders to decide whether to run in Republican primaries?


i'm pretty sure the site is just the republican congresspeople's attempt at looking like they have any policy-making clout whatsoever
