Require a psychological evaluation for candidates running for president.

Created by J.B. on March 07, 2016

We the people believe a president has certain characteristics that allows him or her to act in a way that is best for this country. Mental illness is a very tragic fact of our country and the world, and yet many mentally ill people still possess the qualities of a great leader. However, some illnesses themselves do not allow for a person to act well in leadership roles, especially not the leader of the United States. Sadly, some illnesses come with their own brand of recklessness that is not fit for the presidency. We petition that presidential candidates have psychological evaluations to make sure they possess leadership qualities without recklessness and disregard for human freedom or life.
