I think there should be more focus on what politicians stand to represent, their history, their associations, and what they voted for.
Policy changes are extremely important as well, but it gotten more and more complicated over time. Sounds good on paper, but turns out to be a market grab for corpos.
Then you have people like Charlie Crist… The I will be whatever party that will make me money. He was a republican and now he’s a democrat. Right

In countries like the US, that approach would work if we actually had campaign reforms and a concerted effort to break the ‘two-party’ system (I use quotes because one hand of the corpo-fascist state hits us just a little less hard than the other and at least says “I’m sorry, baby” afterwards). Rank choice voting, uncapping the House of Representatives, NO primaries at all (WYSIWYG politics), etc,. It would go a long way.
