Poll: Most Parents Don't Want Their Children to Be Politicians

Poll: Most Parents Don't Want Their Children to Be Politicians | CNS News
capitol
According to a recent Gallup poll, it posed the question if you had a child/son/daughter, would you like him or her to go into politics as a life's work?  That's how Gallup phrased its question to a random sample of 2048 adults, 18 and older living in all fifty states.  The telephone survey found from June 20-24 that by a 2-1 margin 64% to 31% that the answer was "no."  Parents don't want their children to go into politics as a career. 

I say "amen" to that.  I don't want my son or any of my future offspring choose a career in politics.  I'll do everything in my power to steer them away from that.  Why?  Because it's corrupt and regardless the political party affiliation or whatever they claim themselves to be, they will become corrupted if they stay in Washington for very long.  I don't care how genuine that candidate is.  None of the so-called conservative politicians are doing anything to stop Obama's agenda from pressing forward.  We have politicians such as Rep. Michelle Bachmann (R-MN) claim that she wants to see Obamacare repealed but she won't do anything to organize a committe in the House so that Obamacare can be defunded.  You can't trust any of them.  I don't want my children to take part in that foolishness.  Our politicians aren't about solving problems.  They are about promoting themselves.  They'll take a certain issue (whatever that may be) and they'll use that issue to prop up their campaign regardless whether it's abortion or Obamacare, or national security, for example.  It's about the money.  We have Congressmen and Senators that become rich staying in Congress for a career.  Something's not right.  Washington is nothing but a party.  Being in office has nothing to do with serving the people.  They answer to those forces who have a control over our politicians.
