"I'm sorry, but a new type of draft has been put into place.
  After all the outcry, and finally against the will of those who seek office,
  the citizens have decided to choose the one who is most capable to take care of the country.
  Not chosen by party, but by ability."

"What are you talking about!"

"Madam President, your term will follow until the people feel you have completed the job,
  or until somebody else is better suited.  If we could select young people to defend the country,
