  • Do not vote for politicians who are endorsed by the same rich investors or rich publishers who endorsed the previous batch of terrible politicians
  • Do not vote for politicians who present no plan for what to do in office
  • Do not vote for rich beggars, who implore people with much less money than themselves to donate to them
