Changing Offices?
Should, say, the Foriegn Minister be able to run for president after his term is over for being Foriegn Minister?

middle two options explained. just say the term limit is 3 terms.

Yes, but only if he hasn't maxed out his # of terms in current office.

the person should be allowed to run for any office, but can ONLY spend 3 terms in the whole government, (ie, if he served 3 terms as Science Minister, he is not allowed to run for anything).

Yes, but only AFTER he has maxed out his # of terms in current office.

the person would be allowed to run for anything AFTER he finished 3 terms in his office, or gets voted out.

I'm in favour of having a limited term of people being in office, say 3 times in a row.

But if in that time they want to try their best at 3 different offices, go ahead

Only after he has maxed out his # of terms in current office. I don't want a president without administrative experience.

I can't see why not. But I think there should be some limits on how many terms the president could be in office!

EASY MAN!

I just think that it would be accurate, in real life it's like that in some countries, and it will stop people from become despots!

Well, but I'm open for other solutions.

Always, but not within a term. you have to serve your term as whatever yo uare - no swapping with someone else. (No cabinet shuffles)

Always, but I agree with Captain, no government shuffles. For example, if I agree with Tassadar5000 on his views about science but not about war, I will vote for him to minister of science. I wouldn't like to see him transferred to minister of war without an election.
