The Governor should be present and in regular discussions with the legislature about goals and methods to accomplishing those goals.
Absolutely. We do not have a unilateral form of government. Coalitions are necessary to be productive.
For Missouri, I support the process that was part of our State Constitution until recently. A bi-partisan panel appointed by the governor after recommendations are submitted to him by the Congressional District Committees.
