Your thoughts are very true and people do fail to realize the people in power are just like you and me. However, they must fulfill their duties required by their places in society. Yes, we can forgive their transgressions, but there is a point people reach where they are just not the right person for the job. For some reason, society likes the decisions to be made for us without spending much internal thought on the issue. If you're a Democrat and the Party supports a position, well that must be the right one. If you're a Republican and they support an issue then by gosh you should support it too. Wrong. We must all still form our own opinions. Thank you for the compliment! Your thoughts are very true and people do fail to realize the people in power are just like you and me.

If people knew even half of what these leaders and helpers really thought, they would be in shock. Too often we put them in a category that would suggest they were above any reproach and incapable of doing wrong. We believe everything that comes out of their mouths if it's something we want to hear. So often we use these leaders as a means of knowing what we should think ourselves. Their beliefs and ideas become ours, without any rational thought on our part. We have to remember...these leaders are people and all that entails. When they climb the political ladder this high, it's most likely due to the desire to have power and they will do what they need to do to get it Excellent article.
