It's kind of like getting married because you love someone. What a horror.

The whole point of politics is getting power. Get a clue.
No need to get rude and insulting. Lets try and be civil ok?


This may surprise you but most people don't get involved in politics for the power. Most have altruistic reasons. They get involved because they don't like the direction that the country is heading and they want to help change the direction, they get involved because they want to do something for their community, they get involved because they believe in the ideals of the party they support, they get involved in politics because they want to make a difference. Power has nothing to do with it. 99% of people involved in politics will have no power at all.... all they hope for is a little bit of influence.
