Wouldn't it be nice if political canidates were contractually obliged to fulfil what they said they would do?

  I think this would backfire. If two large enough groups of legislators both said they would go to Washington and do opposing and mutually exclusive things it would create a deadlock where neither group has the ability to compromise.

    Plus it would remove any capability to change stances as new information comes to light.

      That's a good point but.. it sucks that politicians can promise 1 thing and do another once elected :)
