| Well: If you made it a requirement that in order to run for President you would have to quit the Senate, There wouldnt be many Senators in the race.
So: they just go ahead with their campaigns and some of them attempt to make the big votes others don't. Some of them use a vote to make points for their election. To be honest I doubt their presence is missed very much. In fact if we only had one Senator per state instead of two, we would save a bundle on wages ,retirements office costs, and perks, and the difference wouldnt be worth talking about. |
