If they do things against the law what is to stop them from breaking other laws?

politicians in a democracy are ambassadors of the people. they represnt them. do you really want a man who has sex with prostitutes to be representing you?

He represents people. We can't have these people in office because other countries and people care. You people usually seem to care about the countries reputation.

Funny thing is that most of the time the ambassadors are polite and charming people that tend towards good morality, whilst the people they represent are up to their noses in drugs, prostitution, raping, molesting, etc.

No, it does matter when the politicians have set themselves up as worthy to lead the people

the moment they choose to become a politician is the moment that they should know their private lives will be examined, its as easy as that

but it shouldn't be exterminated.

junot · « **Reply #26 on:** March 15, 2008, 04:12:05 AM »

it isnt exterminated, just examined

Sure they have to submit to Media people watching their every move, but why should we judge them when we never judge ourselves? We could be criminal masterminds that are totally corrupt, and they could be good people that make one little mistake, than all of a sudden we harass them and criticise them. Humanity=pretty damm oblivious of itself.

humanity is a disease that will be one day wiped out of existence.

Lets not let us turn this into one of those topics. But anyways I agree with this:

Once they become politicians their life changes. They make laws and such, so they especially should abide by them. This guy promised he would go after people like himself. They should be an example of good citizens.

Meyer · « **Reply #31 on:** March 15, 2008, 03:01:26 PM »

shouldn't anyone be an example to others? How would you like if your stupid things would be all over the papers and telly?

GrndAdmrlPellaeon · « **Reply #32 on:** March 15, 2008, 03:44:39 PM »

I wouldn't. That is why Im not a politician.

vadereclipse · « **Reply #33 on:** March 15, 2008, 04:10:43 PM »

i doubt politicians want it either. i personally wouldn't mind being a politician. i am very interested in social politics. however, i lack the charisma needed in the british government.

Meyer · « **Reply #34 on:** March 15, 2008, 04:35:54 PM »

I have though of going to politics. for one thing the pay is very good and you don't literally have to do anything.

vadereclipse · « **Reply #35 on:** March 15, 2008, 06:05:01 PM »

i just need to work on charisma. if you know about british politics, there is a lot of smart talking in there. it's not bluntly done.

Isamu · « **Reply #36 on:** March 15, 2008, 06:09:21 PM »

charisma is a powerful thing when it comes to politics

vadereclipse · « **Reply #37 on:** March 15, 2008, 06:12:07 PM »

you don't know a charismatic politician till you watch "question time" on BBC news politics. (if you don't know brirtish politics or aren't interested in politiccs, give it a miss. ) gordon brown is about as charismatic as a rancor. the opposition leader, david cameron, as much of an upper class arse as he is, is charismatic.

Isamu · « **Reply #38 on:** March 15, 2008, 06:15:25 PM »

unfortunatly i don't know british politics. only usa, russian, and japanese i am really familiar with.

vadereclipse · « **Reply #39 on:** March 15, 2008, 06:18:59 PM »

in britain, gordon brown took over from blair last summer. he was a great chancellor, but a bad PM. alistair darling (chancellor of the exchequer/ handles economic side of things) has screwed the economy up through the northern rock crisis (bank in england-crashed due to us subrime mortgage crisis) and now, it looks like the tories (assholes) will take power in the 2010 elections.
