An "innocent's" point of view
Published on April 13, 2005 By WizardMark In Politics
Since childhood I always wanted to be a lawyer. I interest myself on current issues on my country and my peers and parents have always been supportive of me. They always encourage me to pursue my dreams and be a politician because, according to them, lawyers make a good politician.

As of lately I changed my mind. With all that's happening in our country, where people die everyday because of power- greedy people, I stand up and say POLITICS SUCK!

Right now I am a holder of a decent degree from a well- respected university. I'm into a low-paying job but still I'm proud because I still have my philosophies intact with me and I'm proud to say that I work with great integrity and always striving to be the best by always bringing out the best in me.

Now that, I think, makes a good politician. (Mind you, I'm not-- and never had a plan-- running for office!)

Problem is a 'good' politician will NEVER be elected until you get rid of all the 'bad' politicians currently in office along with the corrupting influences in D.C. or anywhere.

Remember the poetry of ee cummings.
"A politician is an arse upon which everyone has sat except a man [or woman]."
