A lot of people would describe people who want to be the president as people who shouldn't be president, but I've never heard someone describe someone who would describe someone who wants to be mayor as that. When does the office reach a level of influence that it begins to attract individuals driven by a craving for power?
I mean it's basically the entire system... You see the same in the business and entertainment world. America is run by power hungry narcissists and built by the humble.
Viva la revolucion. Never settle.
Not just America. People who want power always seek it. I have yet to see a proposed system that could eliminate the ability to gain and abuse power.
