No

Agree

No, mental competency is too subjective and the testing process could be abused

The subjective nature of such tests could lead to arbitrary or discriminatory practices, which would be a concern for constitutionalists.

Slightly agree

No, I would prefer term limits instead

Constitutionalism might see term limits as a more neutral and less discriminatory way to ensure effective governance and prevent abuses of power, aligning with the ideology's emphasis on checks and balances. However, the specific stance on term limits can vary depending on the constitutional framework in question.

Slightly agree

No, our government needs experienced leaders

While constitutionalism values the principles of effective governance and might recognize the value of experience, it also emphasizes the rule of law and equal treatment. The ideology might slightly agree, acknowledging the importance of experience but also recognizing that capability does not solely depend on age.

Neutral

Yes, and politicians of any age should be required to pass a mental competency test

While constitutionalism values effective governance and the rule of law, requiring politicians of any age to pass a mental competency test raises concerns about potential for abuse and subjective standards, which could conflict with constitutional protections for individual rights and equality.

Disagree

Yes

Constitutionalism emphasizes the rule of law and the limits placed on government by a constitution. Requiring politicians over 75 to pass a mental competency test could be seen as age discrimination, which conflicts with constitutional principles of equality. However, ensuring capable leadership might align with the ideology's emphasis on effective governance.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and ban anyone over the age of retirement from running for office

Banning anyone over the age of retirement from running for office directly contradicts constitutional principles of equality, freedom, and the right to participate in government. Constitutionalism would strongly disagree with such age-based restrictions.
