When you say politics it involves people,amongst that people rises a representative that we called a politician or politicians because there are lots of them we would select to represents and lead the people. Which of those politicians win the hearts of the common people gain upper hand. In order to gain and win, they (politicians) must do whatever they would do, whatever the risk involves,promising anything, deceiving, cheating and even depriving someones rights and respects just to win them and put them at the top. Some politicians are striving hard to win for their own interest which resulted to corruptions... Most of us concluded that it is a "Bad game of the Society"..what can you say about this do you like to a Politician someday? What's your opinion?

i love politics but the way its being played in africa makes me hate it with passion, i believe politics should be played under a free and fair platform but in africa it has become a do or die affair in which the toughest politicians win at the end of the day and that makes it the deadliest game here

Sometimes i do but got tired of of listening to them. It's the same old thing and turned out nothing accomplished. They run for their own personal interest and if they won they got amnesia.

Do you think we still have a good politicians? Or maybe the world now are surrounded by traditional politicians? Let's just hope that they suffer from "obsessive compulsive" not "AMNESIA". lol Nowadays, we cannot really tell if we voted for the right one or our votes turned out to nothing. I am wondering now how this issues started and who influenced them? lol I just hope that they still know the words "conscience and love for the nation".

me, i think politics is always an interesting subject! but as for myself, i don't want to be a politician! they say politics is dirty! i think so...or maybe its not really the politics that is dirty...its the politicians! i think they are the one who gives politics a bad name! yes politicians do anything they can do just to get the position...but voters are the one who decided who will be seated in the position...but again...because politicians are...they can make the votes change! that's why i still vote...not for anybody but for...you know what i mean i know...

As a matter of fact, I do not like politics very much. For me, I only like something simple, or clear. As far as I am concerned, politics is so complex, sometimes you could hardly tell right and wrong, just struggle and some games. I do not like this.

I don't like politics and I think I don't want to be a politician.but I also thnk that sine the politics axist it has its own reasons.Indeed,politics is called a bad game of society in some aspects.but every coin has two sides.Do we think that if there are not politics,what the society would be like ?If there are not politics,we will have not leaders and officers,then who will do what they do for us ?that is my opinion,have a nice day!

I like politics. Though I am not involved actively with any political part but I have a interest. In my student life, my aim in life was to be a political worker. But I failed to fulfil my aim in life. A good and honest polical leader can do a lot forhis society. Yes, today corruption is there. Not now corruption was in past. Corruption from the very beginning of the society.

I don't like politics, they lie, cheat, find anyway to the top that they can, by being as neutral as possible. As Javis Cocker once said: "The cream cannot always help but to rise up to the top, but I say: **** floats." not to mention that it seems that everyone is very afraid to take a stance for one side or the other on any issue, simply because they're afraid of losing votes. But for our time, in our developing phase of humanity, I think that it's sort of a necessary evil, until we find something better.

I like the idea that politics is supposed to stand for i do not like the way politics works now days i think it goes beyond how the general body of the united states should be represented if it were put to vote alot of issues would be resolved entirely differently possibly better possibly worse id say the whole countries knowledge in voting is better than our politics abbility to do their jobs.. thats my oppinion.

Yes i like politics because i myself is a politician in my college years...Politics really is part of everyone's life because in it one's leadership is unveil to others...but what i dont like in politics are the attitudes of the politicians and to the people who consented their selves to be used by this corrupt and greedy politicians...The promises they(politicians) made to people, and the cheats, deceits, vote- buying, and the harassment they made during election just to win the position they want... Then we people also are fool enough to believe their words and accept material things not knowing the effects of these to us after the election...do not say this politicians are dumb and unintelligent enough to waste large amount of money for the election because after winning and seated on their position, first thing to do is to get back their expenses during election from the people's money... in short, we people also are to be blame in putting corrupt, greedy politicians in the government... So people be wise enough to vote a politicians...

I could say that as a psychology major I'm interested in Politics not for the issues but for the prior human behaviors that make up the issues. For example, is corruption really because there "are no good people out there anymore" or is it because of the system? Dan Ariely in his work in behavioral economics muses on the fact that people are more probable to steal and cheat if they work with tokens that could be exchanged for real money rather than real money per se. And heck, what politicians really do is manipulate assets or other money-exchangeable resources, which might be the reason for a system creating corruption or a culture of stealing. Just interesting.

Yeah. As for me, whoever sits on the reign of our government, they are all the same. Compared to a song, it is just a same song being sung only in different version but the thought (corruption) are still there...Thanks for responding..

I don't know what it is but I have never gotten into politics. I just don't even care to bother either. I know everyone says that a person should know a little bit about what is going on with the politics but I just don't have the patience..why spend all that time listening to them politicians rambling on and on about how great they are going to make when 99.9% of the time it turns out none of the stuff they have said they were going to do even happens.
