we all have heard about bad politics? in every country politics are bad and corrupt in their own very ways. But is there also something like good politics? Is is possible for politics to be good rather than be bad? would a country benefit or harm from good politics?

Politics, my friend Booker_t79 is inherently bad-it is a cunning way of getting what you want, when, how and usually the why is never important. In the third world, most especially in Africa, politics has remained permanently bad-did you hear about the genocide in Rwanda in the 90s and now in Dafur in Sudan? That is how bad politics can be. Politics can only be good to people who are wrongfully amassing wealth by virtue of being politicians-in Uganda, while the majority of the people remain poor and on very low wage, Members parliament who aleady earn too much keep increasing their earnings everytime they join parliament. Today they are fighting for their pensions and it will cause the Ugandan tax payers billions of shilings needlessly. I cant speak for the rest of the world, but in Africa,the only brand of politics practiced here is Bad Politics!

Good politics ?!!!!!!! I have not heard of it. I always think "politics" means its not a fair deal. Often we use the word "politics" to mean misproportion. So, I have not seen any good politics in practical. But I often heard the good politics in news channels, but I have the conclusion that whether you say good or bad as far as it is politics, it is always means unfair :)
