A prerequisite for being a politician is also being a narcissistic sociopath. The few that aren't/weren't are the deviation from that, and usually get hamstrung if not just killed anyway.
I've actually considered running for local office, but I decided against it for a couple reasons, one being my unusual work schedule, and the other being the fact that I can't imagine being around politicians that much.
Anyway, it's pretty clear we need more than elections to fix whatever it is this is.
