Politics serves the purpose in America that the Catholic Church did in Europe in Medieval times. It is the place that wealthy family send their lesser sons, and now daughters, to keep them from screwing up the family business.

Just as our best and brightest no longer become teachers, so it is in politics.

(Perry5, to save you the trouble ... that's poli meaning many and tics meaning blood sucking parasites.)
