What they seem to miss is that the reason the subjects are disposed to being honest, is that they settled the “will” issue long ago.
An honest person doesn’t struggle with it, because they’ve long since decided that honesty is the best policy.
A dishonest person hasn’t reached that state yet, so they struggle with options.
Meanwhile politicians only struggle is about which lie they will tell.
Say for example: A president that has already decided against the merits of showing his birth certificate to prove his elligibility, doesn't have to think about it in subsequent decisions. He simply knows to automatically send lawyers to try to shut down a lawsuit instead of sending his proof of elligibility.

I much agree. But the old saying, "You can't be honest with a dishonest man.", holds true.
