I saw the Cris Wallace interview with Scott Walker and I took Scott’s comments to mean that we Americans assume that anyone who runs for President in this country loves it. We know that is an assumption we should never have made in the first place. Often, people who seek high office are lusting for power over others and want to aggrandize themselves. However, there are those who truly want to serve. They can usually be identified through their past lives, and through their family values. Good people leave good footprints behind for the rest of us. That is why it is dangerous not to vet those who want high office and that is why we are so disturbed when our politicians are not closely looked at.
Looking at all these replies that point out absolute power is usually the tick that sets candidates on the course; thusly, how smart would it have been for Walker to say, “Oh geez yeah Bobo ran because he’s power-mad and by inference, I’m power-mad, too, eh.”
