Documents every elected candidate should show us going forward
Birth Certificate - let's not have to go through this ever again.

Arrest/Legal Records - Arrested for something; we should know.

School Records/Transcript - I'd have loved to see Bush's; also if someone flunked basic science classes, then I want to know.

Tax Returns - How much are where are they getting money and are they paying their taxes.

Certifications - If someone claims they are a CPA or something; then show me.


Personally, I bet most Republicans would be harder pressed showing and explaining these items than most Democratic candidates.

3. I wouldn't mind knowing whether or not
candidates got good grades. Might reduce the number of total buffoons in office.

6. Count me out on school records, at least before college
If Obama flunked geometry in high school, I don't care. If Sarah Palin failed Chemistry in high school, I don't care.

I'm much more interested in the overall narrative of what classes they took and what their areas of interest were.

7. An individual class is meaningless, but an overall "C" student?
I'd want to know before giving that person the keys to the government.

8. High school is BS
If someone got C's there and A's in college, who cares?
