#3 Presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton told college Democrats on Saturday she would create a national academy to train public servants.

But hey, don't call her a liberal...

#7 VOW!!! JUST LIKE AN US VERSION OF THE FRENCH ENA!!! A SURE RECIPE FOR SUCCESS!!! YYEEARGH!!! (channeling howard dean)

Do it, by Gum!

But, make sure that your own Enarchs eventually come to monopolize both the corporate world's higher reaches (with an inc*es*tuous relationship with their administrations of origin, to which they can go back as they please), AND the highest levels of the political body, along with their similarly-minded Über-technocrats brothers of a couple other "grandes écoles"... and don't forget to have the run-of-the-mill Enarchs form a governement inside a governement which never changes, unlike the elected one which comes and goes, and is in last analysis the prime mover and decider of that particular executive branch supposedly headed by a minister (but, hey, it's likely he's an Enarch anyway, or at the very least, advised and surrounded by his own Enarchs).

Do it, and soon enough, you'll look just like the Vth, the governement of civil servants for civil servants, by civil servants. Something to really look for, innit?

#8 Also, you might want to copy the french status of civil servants, established under COMMUNIST patronage during the provisional, un-enelected governement right after liberation : hired for life, can't be fired, can't be penalized, with pay increasing accordingly to his age and not correlated with productivity in any way.

#9 "hired for life, can't be fired, can't be penalized, with pay increasing accordingly to his age and not correlated with productivity in any way"

#10 Worked so well for the French, y'know.

#11 Third, can you think of a more blatant, easily abused source of patronage? It's free, it's worth thousands, it'll set you up for life, and you gotta have a congressman sponsor you.

Knowing the Clintons, that's probably the whole point.

#12 Okay, I thought the story about liberals boycotting advertisers on FNC was the dumbest liberal idea I've ever heard but her Thighness gets the blue ribbon with this gem.
