#3 “draw attention to his political belief in ‘sortation.’” Sortation is an ancient Greek method of randomly selecting government officials.

Can't approve of his publicity methods, but could Sortation give us any worse than we have now? I've always thought that wanting an elected office was prima facie evidence that you were unfit for that office.
