One of the first questions that arise at the idea of representative democracy - whether it promotes the power of the people best able to cope with the tasks corresponding to positions for which they elect? Another problematic place of electoral democracy - match campaign promises real action being taken following the election of a candidate for his position, that is, simply - lies and manipulation in the election or in the name of the rating in the political season. It is believed that the problem of non-candidate of their promises to the electorate decides the practice of political competition for votes. In fact, guided by common meaning or unwillingness to be deceived a second time, voters at the next election should support political opponents "guilty" or a campaign to collect signatures for the feedback people's choice (if procedure required by law). In fact, we see a picture of what you can to voice an allegorical way: the hydra heads of many politicians, and the place of the severed grow new ones. All political forces promise voters a guaranteed opportunity to meet immediate needs and goals, promise a bright future, successful development strategy, respect for history and so on. often differ only by their brands. But even if candidate or party are sincere in seeking to solve a particular problem, how to state voters from election to election we fall more and more expensive barrage of campaigning, to objectively evaluate the possibility of this or that political power is better than others to cope with this problem (or, in principle, handle)? In my opinion, one of the steps in improving the system of representative democracy would be a system of certification for admission to exercise your right to vote as an elector.
