If we can manage to assimilate the idea of the goal of politics, surely we would then be able to deduce the correct approaches which will lead us to our objective.
However, immature people without knowledge are always going to pick leaders who can at best be as good as they are themselves!
Consider the magnitude of danger faced by a nation when it picks leaders who seem to little understand the true purpose of politics.
A leader’s goal in taking part in political affairs should only be to obtain the chance to contribute to serving the people, helping the distressed and feeding the hungry.
If contrasting motivations creep in, the result is the slow poisoning and consequent death of righteousness.
Too often this end is manifested by the treating of politics by politicians and the people as only a way of gaining wealth and power, and of maltreating political foes.
Only through a massive change in our attitudes, can a transformation be realised.
We must learn to think critically and eliminate absurdities that are present in our conceptions, expectations and understanding.
Instead of being servile sycophants to leaders with questionable deed and records, we should voice our opinions and demand a thorough cleansing of the domain of politics to expurgate the filth of corruption and related ailments.
