Give our incumbents some short number of months to show something justifying their current positions - anything extraordinary and appropriate for these times. Everyone who merely rides the status quo, offers impotent rhetoric in place of quality moives, or whines that they're powerless gets asked to resign, provided that won't switch the seat.

Anyone too weak to do the job they asked for and were given, and now fail to do even the least of it in dire circumstances, the proper response is ostracism until they resign.

Do that, real leaders emerged.
