I feel like I could see that working for local positions, but you want your federal representatives to have experience governing, right? Like, work their way up, learning as they go? That means this isn't a fun hobby for them, it's a job. Are you telling these folks to spend years/decades building up their political career just to kamikaze it all for a single two year term (6 Senate unless they're recalled)? And if so, where should a person flame-out? Should they go down swinging on city council, or wait until they're a state senator, or wait until they're in US Congress etc.?
