Category:Qualifications Questions for Candidates

Some but perhaps not all the questions to be listed in a sub-category of this "Qualifications" parent category are for GPCA candidates to answer. But in this proposer's opinion (JGW) the candidate must answer them if and only if their supporters want them to be answered, say, (1) before the group proceeds further with campaign filings, or (2) before fund raising efforts to support campaign operations begin, and/or (3) before or (4) during campaign operations execution. jgw110912

I hope there will be two major sub-categories of Qualifications for Candidates: General Qualifications and Office Titles. General Qualifications might be: what are the general minimal qualifications for any GPCA candidate for an elected public office? General Qualifications (GQ's) could be further sub-categorized (or sub-divided) for GQ's for local, GQ's for county, GQ's for state, and GQ's for federal offices in general. The second major sub-category I propose is Office Titles. That is: each elected public office title will be listed here as a sub-category of the Office Titles parent category. ...Unless someone has a better idea. jgw110912

From time to time this proposer, Jenni Woodward will summarize, simplify, and if necessary re-categorize questions on this web site. Sometime before a Primary or General Election I Jenni Woodward (www.cagreenideas.org) will collect the questions posted here and create one or more mock Candidates Qualifications Survey for each title of elected public office. Eventually the accumulated questions under a specific title will include those a GPCA candidate (or his/her aid) posts here for an office s/he has already run for, or currently holds, or wishes to run for. The mock, in-revision and final versions of the surveys(and revised drafts of actual surveys) I (and other volunteers) create will appear on my CAGreenIDEAS.org web site. Look for them by way of the left-hand-side menu item (web pages section): Polls and Surveys. I (JGW) and others can revise and extend these surveys before, during and after each election cycle. jgw110912

At a still later time the GPCA, by some GPCA process yet to be determined and listed here (or linked-to/referred-to here), can decide if any of the candidates for an office ought to take (fill out and complete online) a revised and/or final version of the appropriate Candidates Qualifications Survey for the office they seek. The GPCA process might also determine when in the campaign cycle they should do so. ...Unless someone has a better idea. jgw110912
