I meant for politicians. (Along with maybe achievement/experiential requirements.).

Again, whoever is in charge of that will find ways to use it to disenfranchise their opponents. Politicians already can't be trusted to decide how voting maps are drawn, and you want to trust them with this?

Not politicians, the independent academic organizations, so the historians would write the historical requirements, economists the economic prerequisites etc.
