There are still a very few of those politicians that really have the intention to help and you can see that they're not corrupt based on their living. But as much as you can, you stay away from politics.
It's totally a mess game for those who have been there and knows how to touch and play the ball.
You'll never know who's your enemy and friend. Today, you may be friends but tomorrow, they are your rivals.
There are no permanent friends or enemies in Politics, , only interest is permanent, this is very famous quote and proved true time and time again . It is true that politics is a mess specially in 3rd world countries where accountability of politicians is almost impossible because the whole governing system is corrupted by politicians for their own vested interests. https://www.forbes.com/quotes/9781/And the power that they have felt will mostly don't want to be gone to them, so they create policies and laws that are going to be in favor of them to retain power and wealth. That's the reality of politics. And it's hard to change and break the cycle when the same people and family are sitting in the authority. Politics of dynasty is really hard to change in many countries including USA where Presidents from Bush and Kennedy families were elected many times in the past and they are still influential to some extent but in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh any many Asian counties is still happening. The problem with dynastic politics is that it produces inferior quality of leadership, hinders development and becomes barrier to transfer of power to common men.

Yeah, it's the reality and keeps on happening. There's no way to change it as the mindset of the people will still be the same as they'll call it, that whoever runs from the family. They'll think that they already have the experience and they're likeable by everyone. It just keeps on happening again and again and to break it, you'll be the one targeted if you try to open the eyes of the people that they should vote and elect new politicians.

t considers the interest of its citizens while the negative example of politics Russia leader who do not consider the interest of its citizens mainly for self interest to start a war that will at the end affects its citizens..
This is why limited government and democracy is important. If you believe humans are inherently corrupt, limit their scope and curtail their political influence. Democracy doesn't actually exist in Russia so limited governance doesn't apply. I think you are right to some extent because human behavior is influenced by gene and environments but not necessarily we will do what our father or forefathers did during their life time if we are brought up in a different environment. Though son of a murderer will have genetic tendency to murder but not necessarily he will murder if he is surrounded by noble people who are patient and hate to commit any kind of crime.

a) Weak political institutions: Most African political systems can be easily manipulated. The executive can easily manipulate the judiciary and legislature. This has made many politicians despotic. So when good men are given too much power they become power drunk this is because absolute power corrupts absolutely.
b) Public mentality: It is generally believed that politics enriches. Hence, everyone believe that when you get any Political position you are meant to acquire wealth by any means. You would be insulted by your family members and community if you do not enrich yourself, family, and friends. The his has forced men of integrity to become corrupt.
Actually, in countries where the unemployment rate is higher or worker's salaries are lower, political manipulation is very common. Everybody needs money to live their life, so when they do not find any legal way, the illegal procedure is the only option. This type of corrupt mindset can only be fixed with spiritual speech. People with spiritual beliefs are higher and they listen to their religious leader. I think only a religious leader can get rid of corruption in our society.

What you said really does make sense and I fully agree to it. Most politicians nowadays only run for the sake of their personal agendas. While there are some that really want to make a change and help the country improve and progress, these type of people are very few nowadays. What's worse is that most of these good people do not win because most of the time people believe the crap from the corrupt ones. And even when the good ones win, they become tempted to be corrupt in the long run.
But what if a good politician really does win and stays true to his morals while serving the public whole heartedly? It will make too little to no difference. Why? Because people do not know how to get satisfied. There will always be people wanting more to the extent of being spoonfed. Not to mention the opposite political parties that are too bitter to support and help the winning candidate of the other political party.
And wanna know what's even worse than this? The way politics influences the people making close friends, relatives and even families go into conflict just because of having different political views from one another. And all these are being witnessed by the children and are then carried by them into adulthood. Sigh, There is just no fixing this world anymore. -.-

Behind politics is the the politician. There are two kinds of people in this world: 1. Normal people, who are kinda humble at heart; 2. Ambitious psychopaths. Without getting into a big explanation, actively aggressive politicians are generally at least a little into being psychopathic. If they weren't, they wouldn't be as aggressive as they are. There's nothing wrong with being a politician. The problem comes from those politicians who want to be great, at heart. And that's they way things are, because the humble politicians seldom get out there and fight without being led into battle by the psychopaths among them. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

Politics has an affect on a politician.The mindset of a politician is quite different from the mindset of a civilian who is not aspiring for any position.They do say politics is not a game for kids nor a child's play.This statement means that before one can stand to aspire for any political position,he must have done some extra-ordinary things to protect himself,and keep his head safe.It doesn't mind whether you were a good person before or not,the moment the mind if politics has popped up in an individual,he must also bare in mind that he is up for a fight,and that leads him to do those things he never wanted to, in other to protect himself.

Who is civilian, a civilian is a politician and what is involve and interesting is how to treat people and how to governor you region, what makes politics so bushes and dirty is individual understanding, the mindset of person will determine what is going to rule for it's territory, we fails understand that. It is not politics you join that changes the mind of politicians it is the love and interest you have for your people

Politics has always been an evil deed which transform the good to bad,The good man who determines to do what right ,his Good intentions later changes to bad intentions, it not really the fault of this prospective politicians when new to the game ,when they get to the office it a different ball game entirely,politics in different nations are almost the same with selfish interest ,only few stand out but yet still get a little bit corrupt..it is said that if you want to attain greater heights then join them ,if not you will remain stagnant, if not careful even left out ,politics has it own effect on society be it positively or negatively ..an example of the positive effect on the society is good governance and welfare of its citizens ,it considers the interest of its citizens while the negative example of politics Russia leader who do not consider the interest of its citizens mainly for self interest to start a war that will at the end affects its citizens..
Politics was actually interesting but greed and selfishness took over many hearts and have eaten deep in our society today and only few can stand out to overcome which is very difficult.

The system always influences people who are into it , politics is not for cool and gentle people. Politics is a tough game for strong people who can do anything for the sake of their ambition.

Politics have an effect on human mind,this effect can either be positive or negative depending on who is playing the game. I can't neglect the fact that human selfishness and greediness has a major role to play in not only the outcome of their political race but all aspect of life. For instance, Nigeria politics is nothing to write home about,our leaders are so corrupt and self centered, should we say ' politics change their mindset' NO, I believe they were self centered as a human and politics is just an avenue for them to showcase their character. Also I don't believe the system is corrupt,what is the system without human?. To rephrase the statement, we human are corrupt.

I don't blame politics for any reasons, most people don't have good intentions in joining politics, because they believe politics is a place where free money can be generated. But if one has good intention to join politics, politics can never change such set of people.

Politics is tool of managing societies. Success of societies greatly depend on their political systems. There is autocracy, communism and capitalism , socialism, each having their flaws. We currently live in age of hypocrisy. Where politicians use us as tools, they mold societies for their own gains. No one stands for old principles of honesty and truthfulness. We are on a degradation path with politicians leading us from front.

One thing people dont understand about handling a political office is that, they seem to forget its there tenor. Your the one in the fvcking seat and not some guy by the corner that gives you directives or advices or wants his or her will to be done because he or she happened to have assisted your coming into the office in the first place. It's your signature and as such, every ills that could befall the public as a matter of your approval is linked directly to you. There is no need being a puppet politician. You came by the win means, its okay! Now that your there, right the wrongs and be known as the man who came and changes things for the better of the public and not be controlled by some puppet master.

Average people need to look at politics for one major reason. So they can see how they are being stomped on by the politicians. Maybe they will learn how to protect themselves once they see who is harming them. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

It is possible that politics can change one's mind,yes.Most person's that were good before changed because they have joined the political system,and that has had something to do with the way they think.The moment one gets into that office,their mentality changes,the things they said they will do,they no longer do them because their mindset has changed.Politicians are always lieing most of the times about what they want to do,they lie to get money from the government to settle their own problem and for their selfish interest.

I don't think so from my understanding, I see politicians as people who are not qualified to be leaders,meaning they are incompetent of the public offices they are holding. They don't know the duties and responsibilities of the office they are been voted for. For instance,if you are going for an interview, you will be interviewed base on your field. A pilot can't say he is a pilot when he can't fly a plane,or not knowing how and when to land.He will end up crashing himself and the passengers on board.This is how politicians are,they think that how to lead people is by looting public funds for themselves and their families alone. They don't have the proper knowledge of a true politician. A true politician will always think put his people first, he will do everything to satisfy them first because he knows they are his duties and responsibilities. These present days politicians are scammers, robbers and criminals in disguise but we all think they are politicians. We pray to God to give every country leaders that will liberate the people from hardship and poverty.

This happens when the system is bad , when their is no strong law people must obey. People feel politics is a life opportunity where anyone can come and mismanage public fund. When the political system is controlled by a strong law it can't be possible for politicians to change , not to do what they are supposed to do.
