And it came to pass

[MarcvsAvrelivs]

Jospeh Robinette Biden had been an important man. He had been the Vice-President. Then he was the President. But the burden of supply and distribution had proven irksome. He had preferred being important to doing anything important. More and more of it he had delegated to assistants and minions, until one day the upstarts — he could never bring himself to call them by their own self-important name — had suggested he delegate the office of President along with its duties.

He was then the deemed abdicated and dispensable man.

It’s a perfect bi-partisan analogue.

Should Presidential Candidates be subjected to a standard battery of tests in order to stand for Office?

It's not in the Constitution, it would have to be amended which is designed to be a difficult process.
