Representative Democratic Model- Selectable Offices Part One

 Representative Democratic Model- Selectable Offices Part One

Judicial, bureaucratic, and law enforcement officials should be selected. There are different modes of selection as there are different modes of election. 

1. For judges, ambassadors (federal), and most cabinet-level head executives, the head of the executive branch (U.S. President or State Governor) should nominate the candidate. The legislative upper house, through a majority vote, should confirm that nominated candidate. For the head executive of the prosecutorial law enforcement, the supposed head of the upper legislative body (U.S. Vice-President or State Vice-Governor) should nominate the candidate. The legislative lower house, through a majority vote, should confirm that nominated candidate

2. For inferior offices and inferior departments in the executive branch of government, the head executive (President or Governor) can either directly or indirectly choose the candidates unilaterally. 

3. The previous two points, with the exception of nomination of the prosecutorial law enforcement head executives by the VPOTUS at the federal level or by the Vice-Governor at the state level, are listed in the U.S. Constitution. However there are some changes which must be made in the US Constitution and state constitutions. Prosecutorial law enforcement department heads should never be selected by the head of the executive branch and its administration. This is because of the eventual conflict of interest that would arise if the head of the executive branch is suspected of committing a crime.

My next post will explain how law enforcement Cabinet department heads must be selected. 

Cliff Notes Version: There are four different modes of selection. One for judges and head executives of Cabinet positions, one for head executives of non-cabinet departments in the executive branch, and two for each law enforcement department head. This post provides a thorough explanation.
