bear in mind that leadership is not the same thing as representation
people in congress aren't "leaders" in the same way people in the executive power are leaders.
in the executive power, the representative elected by the people must indeed be leaders in the full sense of the word.
but in the legislative branch, the elected people aren't leaders but representatives, this is perhaps too subtle of a difference for most voters?
- anonymouskimmer 3y agoMost of what executives do is just rubber stamping, too. I could easily imagine a milquetoast executive who just does what others agree on. There is definite room for "leadership" in the legislative ranks, and it happens all the time with various legislators championing bills or protests.
