Topic: I love politics and I want to be clean politician! - page 3. (Read 319 times)

Oh Great! You have such a high aspirations. One thing I will say is that you should not judge someone or something about their past or present in order to prove that you are better than them in the position they currently hold or previously held. Leading a large group of people is difficult, and abusing a leader because of failure can be harmful. You may be better or worse when you get there, but every nation hopes to get a better leader than the previous ones. Your bravery and determination for a better country will guide you, but know that it will not be enough as time passes.

Some think that politics is just the activities of actors who focus on power, and most of them even reduce it as a dirty game in a democratic system. no doubt, citizens became apathetic. Nevertheless, I really appreciate the spirit and sense of nationalism that you have for your country.

What you need to remember, in its journey, someone can deviate from the ideology they previously believed in. not infrequently, young politicians with the fiery enthusiasm and idealism they brought with them since graduating from college, melt down after having power. whether it's for the sake of the group, or self-interest. now there is no longer black and white in politics, everything is uniform depending on where you stand. someone will not be able to walk alone, everything comes back and depends on interests. if one wasn't strong, in the end, there were only two choices, following the established rules. or, back off slowly.

Believe it or not, it's hard to say that there is such a thing as clean politics, because after all, all policies depend on interests. I don't know where you live, but what I said happened in my country. To be honest, that's why I prefer not to get involved in politics. by the way it doesn't mean what I'm saying, happens to all countries in this world, it just describes the other side of politics that's happening in my country. Maybe, it can be a reference for you to stick to the guidelines and ideology that you believe in. and hopefully, you can be a clean politician.

I’m going to go ahead and disagree with everyone and say that it is not possible to be a clean politician. This is because the machine behind you will not have the funding and support of industries that would prefer to have a bought and paid for politician over somebody who might share similar beliefs. I’ve seen corruption even in my local Home Owners Association. I can’t even begin to comprehend the corruption involved with elected government officials.

There are clean politicians but for every country, there will be citizens that might consider the good one as the bad ones and vice versa.

You really need to make yourself as a good example. Just because politics is dirty, it doesn't mean that everyone there is dirty. As said, there are a few of those that have the heart for public service.

Saying that you'll become a president someday is ambitious but good luck!

It is possible but it also depends on what country you live in.
In the case of Western politics here in the Americas, it is difficult to be an honest politician, because even if you managed to get elected and you had good intentions, around you there will be people who won't be as honest as you and they will try to convince you to "play their game", if you resist or refuse to and do not go along, they will do anything in their hands to get you replaced with someone else.

Something similar happens when policemen in developing countries with a high rate of corruption, does not matter if they enter with go intentions if their companions pushed them to accept bribes and criminals threaten to hurt their families if enforce the law on them.

We should be having good fate in all what we want to do, if not I will say it is not possible to be a clean politician. To be honest and clean politician is not an easy task, we masses see politics as ordinary thing to do, it is beyond our expectation. For you to become good politician is possible, but know that you will sign a lot of agreement with the godfathers of your country before been choosen as a president and I no you will agree with their terms and conditions before giving the opportunity. Now after the elections can you turn against your godfather?
They will want to control you like a television set, will you allow that to happen? Know that there is some obligation that you must do whether you like or not, can you turn back on them.

Some  questions for you.
Come to your personal life
• what have you done for the people in your community?
• Which position have you held before?
• How do you see our present leaders?
• Why do you said you can do better than them?
• Why will we support you?

Politics is something entirety different from normal lifestyle, one can be very truthful and honest, but once they start politics, they start to change their characters towards the masses that vote them in. This statement of being different from the previous or current leaders on seat is what all the politicians use just to get the support and the vote from the community, and once their aim has been achieved, then its a different story.

Today, some leaders have taken politics to such a level that now when people hear the name of politics, they say corruption and anarchy. Political pressure comes from many quarters if one conducts his activities like an ideal politician after taking oath. As a result, even if he wanted to manage politics well, he failed. If you want to change such a system of politics, you have to do it from a very big position, then it is never possible to change the political system from the grassroots level. But since you have made such a wish, I congratulate you. Hope you will be a successful politician in future. But never compromise with injustice always follow the path of justice and take politics to such a level that people see you as an idol.

Before running for election, politicians also make statements like you, they say they will move the country forward, get more jobs, raise wages, lower taxes, and fight corruption...But when they climb up got that position, and what they do after, most people are disappointed.

Honestly, I don't trust any politician, simply because we all have greed, power and money that will make people change quickly. When you are a poor person, you will have a different mindset, but when you are rich, you will have a different mindset.

Definitely possible. If you want to be a transparent politician, you have to promise to always treat people well. Being a good politician is very testing in the current context of the country. No matter how bad the condition of the country is, no matter how bad the people are, no matter how bad the politics are, there are still good people in it. The most important thing is your mindset. If your mindset is good and you plan ahead, you can definitely be a good politician.

Is it possible to become a clean politician? I really love politics and sometimes I feel I can do better than our leaders on sits. I don't how its sounds to you but do you think if I have the opportunity I will be worster than my current leaders who concerns is to consume the wealth and resource of the country. I can be a better politician and I must make a mark. I pray you support me.

In few years to come I should be recognised in my country as one of the youngest ambitious and creating president my country ever have. I want to prove to people that life is a function of mindset and everybody have good mindset but only few use it.
