It’s no surprise I hold utter contempt for politicians who have been in office for more than two terms. In fact, I despise most politicians who are serving their second term in office, as these people are generally on the road to life as a career politician.
In a perfect society, this probably wouldn’t be a problem, but in our less-than-perfect society, a first-term politician learns many of the "tricks" of the political trade, and in their second term, if they wait that long, they begin practicing and honing those tricks to their benefit. Things that typically benefit politicians generally do not benefit the American public (a.k.a. voters or constituents).
Many times over the past 20 years or so, especially when I’ve been really frustrated by various bills introduced by multi-term politicians, I’ve threatened to run for office. I’ve also mouthed off, on far too many occasions, about the things I would change, as well as things I would do if elected.
As a young child, I was always told to be careful about what I wish for in life. Why? Because your wish may just come true. It seems I must have forgotten that lesson at least one time recently. Someone has managed to get my name on ballots in this year’s presidential election. Does this mean I am supposed to start campaigning?
