The truth of the matter is, common people do not usually attain high positions of power. When they do, it's usually worthy of a Hollywood movie.

Maybe in the USA, where it takes millions of $$ to run a campaign, thats true. But, here in Canada, I don't think it is. Most politicians come from everyday common families who are not exceedingly wealthy. Harper does not come from an "upper class" family. Neither did Chretien, Clarke, Mulroney, or Diefenbaker... and probably many others too.... and thats just former PMs... not counting your everyday MP.
