myPolitics

For some people, politics is a pain, for me its a passion. I don't view politics or politicians from a cynical point of view, instead I work to see this political system as one that has been created to help those who cannot help themselves, and I look to support "politicians" who, I believe, hold a similar ideology. In my mind, if you are seeking, or holding office for your own benefit, if you are in it for the power, the money, or to climb the political ladder, then you shouldn't be "in it" at all. However, if you are looking to serve a greater purpose, if you are looking to give a voice to those who have so long been forgotten, and looking to resolve the issues that have, for so long, been allowed to fall by the wayside, then you are "in it" for the right reasons, and you will have my support. If we can get past our preconceived notions that ALL politicians are the same, and if we can get past our MASSIVE egos and work to see life from the perspective of someone with whom we have nothing in common, then maybe, just maybe, we will be able to use this incredible system of government as it was originally intended, for the PEOPLE.
