Add another constitutional office

I would like to see Nebraska have a Secretary of Agriculture that is constitutionally elected. Just like all of the other constitutional officers. Nebraska is a top agriculture state and I believe that the top Ag official in the state should be elected by the people. Not that I have a problem with Gov.Heineman's choice it's just something that I happen to believe should be in the hands of the people. Whether it would be officially a partisan office or not I don't know. The Unicameral is non-partisan but everybody knows what party they belong too. So when it comes to that issue I believe a partisan election would be just as good. I would like to see a campaign where the issues revolve around agriculture for the most part. Simply put I believe agriculture is just too important to the state too let a single individual decide 0n who that Secretary or better yet they could have the title Commissioner of Agriculture.
