Thinking of Politicians
...and the endless complaints (by constituents) once said politicians get into power.
(The picture has nothing or something to do with the subject. Which of the two, and why, is left to your creative spirit.)
Politicians are elected on the strength of their "elective appeal" i.e. their propensity to,
a) convince party apparatchiks that they are worthy to be on the party's bandwagon,
b) convince enough voters to cast a vote for them;
and NOT
c) because they are highly qualified and rarely competent talent ready to perform tasks other than the above.
If we want to have people who can manage the country, we should look for managerial clout and experience, and a proven experience... not politicians.
After all how many global corps fight over giving a politician a functional job? CEO? OK, sales rep is OK, no doubt. But then, an ex military also makes a good sales rep -- and cheaper. And usually, better disciplined and much harder working...
