Who Would Thompson Choose?

An interesting idea from Matthew Kahn:
It strikes me that the attributes to win the election are different from the attributes needed to govern. Am I right? How would I prove this claim? We could switch to a system where the person elected then chooses someone else to govern and receives a payment ex-post based on the President’s performance?
Or maybe we could dispense with Presidential polls and vote directly for Electors.
