what should i be looking for in a politician? my answer, a good politician. what does that mean? someone who can get things done. who can fix things. who can make changes. appreciable differences. on the flip side, someone who doesn't make bad changes. someone who can sit back and watch when things go right. hmmm, not sure. so everyone's raving about this obama guy. I question it. Why? because if anything it seems like he's been shooting for the presidency, or at least political office since he was born. And I wonder about guys like that, who strive for a political life. but then again, if he's seriously out there for the common good? well, then, he might be the best man for the job. maybe I'm just a little pessimistic about who politicians are, what they're out to get, or be. Can't I have just a little faith in America's political system?
