How to solve political incompetency | Fernando Montoya | TEDxArdrey Kell High School

Why do hairdressers need a license but not politicians? This talk challenges the way we choose our leaders, proposing that those in power should be held to higher standards of competence and accountability. It’s time we rethink who gets to lead and why. Hello, my name is Fernando Montoya. Over the past 17 years I have moved 8 times and I’m excited to give this talk. My talk is a reflection of some of the downfalls of the current political system in the US and an idea that could improve it. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
