As seeing that a nation has the potential to collect numerous endorsments from its fellow nations, and that a busy world leader does not always have the time, energy, or bandwith to seek out and give a reciprocating endorsement, I propose that an option be added into the "Settings" that any nation that is endorsed by another will immediately send back an endorsement and receive a message that this has been done. It would work something along the lines of checking a box, and simply waiting for anyone to endorse you. If someone does, they get an endorsement back, and you get a message saying you have endorsed them, with the option to withdraw it.

No, you shouldn't do that, because then you could have delegates that are on equal endorsements, and you could have somebody endorsing someone they don't like.

Endorsement swapping already is one of the big problems in trying to keep any logical politics in the game, and this would only take it to whole new levels

No kiding. Then an invader could just come in, give one endorsment to all UN members, and get tons of them. Endorsement swaping should not be automatic.
