In Politics Cream Rarely Rises
You live a good life. You treat others with respect, are honest, never
cheat, never say a bad word about others, never lie to hurt and are
recognized as trusted and accomplished in your community.
All around you, that know you, know that is so. They would love to have
you as their voice somewhere in this democracy.
But neither you, nor the thousands like you, will run.
You know that your willingness to serve would pit you against those who
cheat, will slash at you and your family with their willingness to lie, and
hurt you and those you love.
You would have no defense, so the cheating and lies would win the day.
Unless, of course, your cream soured and you would lie and cheat better
than they.
So why would anyone honorable with a sense of dignity ever run?
There is only one defense: to create an independent, accurate source of
information that any employer would demand for any other job, that
conservatives and liberals could turn in absolute confidence for the facts,
one which would allow that cream to rise.
