Thus the words "At least I do." at the bottom.
My personal belief is that anyone who WANTS to be a politician should never be elected. The best politicians we have ever had are people that got pushed into it from being a normal person. Career politicians are all crooks on some level. Anyone who would voluntarily run through that election gauntlet to win the ultimate prize of a $80k - $300k job is obviously crazy, and usually after something larger.
Main reasons for politicians to run include corruption/kickbacks/whatever, or personal power. In either case I don't want them in power.
But then again, I want everyone to carry a firearm except those who WANT to carry a firearm.
I'm a fan of the old old school politics - you do what you have to because it's your duty to society. I don't like paid career politicians.
