Ten Things That I've Changed Myself About Over Politics

 1.  The minute that some news media group goes to pronouncing some party or some candidate as 'Jesus' or 'Satan'....I've lost respect for their 'service' or 'product'.

2.  If a campaign speech or political ad sounds like a lecture....I'm gone.  

3.  I'm skeptical of just about every single promise made.....knowing that nine political promises out of ten....will never occur.  

4.  If you are pretty crappy at public speaking or debate....maybe you ought to find management work at some bank, or sell cars, or learn the bartending trade.

5.  If what you know about economics fills just a single 3 x 5 inch index card....you might want to avoid talking about recession, money woes, or fixing the economy.

6.  If you look like a male model....running for office.....it's a 50-50 situation that you've had some hanky-panky going on with five or six women besides your wife.

7.  If you are preaching wealth inequality....it's pretty good odds that you don't have much appreciation of capitalism, and you might be threat to society (instead of an asset).

8.  If you tend to see the US as a problem situation, where you act like a project manager, and have stake-holders and participants involved....you might have the right talents for the job.

9.  If your strategy is to preach doom-and-gloom to the voting audience....I'll exit a side-door rather quickly and find a local pub to sip down a beer.

10.  If you are too stupid to pick employees or hire folks for important jobs....then you better find one single person with this talent, and let them do the hiring.
