Can we get a constitutional amendment to bar people named "Bush" and "Clinton" from the presidency?

62. I think it is because we allowed in the last election identity politics to be a "big issue" then...

... where people were "voting for the first person of color" or "voting for the first woman" in the primaries... Ultimately those that are racists or misogynists were more empowered to throw their views in the mix on these issues as a reason to work against such candidates.

The other core issues that face all Americans were pushed down the ladder to our detriment then. Then we had a damaged candidate like Edwards, that both you and I supported, who was the only one supporting 99% oriented issues and we discovered later that he had problems (which I still wonder was allowed to progress this way through the primary to marginalize any progressive candidates like Kucinich more, and discussions of those issues too), which also served to dismiss progressive issues as a reason to vote for the Democratic nominee and push identity politics as a perceived reason for voting for or against Obama at the end, even though many of us looked Obama as a person we voted for that was far less of a problem than the Republican in the general election.

I would like to think that Warren vs. Clinton in the primaries would move the discussion towards issues rather than identity politics, which should help us gravitate the masses for Warren should she win, and not just because she's a woman, and marginalize more the other side that wants the nation to vote against her because she's a woman.
