I propose that anytime there are more than one person running for office at any level of government, they should fight each other in a full-contact match in the octagon. No judges, no rounds, they fight until one person is knocked out or submits.
If someone wants to challenge the current head of government, they have to fight them for the right to take over.
All fights would be televised live on a level depending on the office being competed for- i.e. local office fights would be shown on local TV- national fights would be televised live throughout the nation. Competitors would NOT be allowed to have a reprersentative fight for them- they have to do their own dirty work.
Since voting only gives the illusion of freedom, I don't see how this is any less democratic- you just need enough names to nominate you for the 'right' to fight.
Imagine how much would get done if the senate/congress (apply to your own country) were composed of full contact professional fighters.

They used to have the exact same type of system in the Vikings. All disputes against parties were handled by a judged fight in a closed space.
Also kings used to have jousts and they would have a designated "champion" who would fight for them. They used this to cut down on warfare, so it was just 2 guys fighting and not a whole battle. Duels come down to us from that too.
I guess then we would have Arni as president.

If candidates were given the option to "fight it out", there would be more minorities (African Americans) in government. And SOCIETY doesn't want that so they are going to continue to put up barriers preventing them from getting involved. Ex- poor schools, barriers from finding suitable employment...oh and locking up the black men so the family structure can continue to deteriorate. So to answer your question,,the government is very crooked. And that's no joke because it's true

Your ideas of fight for tribal leadership are good, if we are looking for strong leaders- what if we want them to be smart too!

Constant war? No thanks.
Countries need leaders, not 'biggest bubba'.
