Trying to nail down the definition of a politician.

Here is my definition of a politician, what's yours?

This could have gone into a couple of different forums but I figured most answers would be of the ranting variety so here it is. I look forward to your feedback!

A politician is the mirror image of how keen you are in utilizing your democratic rights.

Pauly Shore explains it best imo. A weasel and a joke.

I think there are some in Florida who may disagree with you.

And a lot of people felt their voice was suppressed at the RNC:

Could it be that the guy does not belong in that party?

Not the point, the delegates in Maine had their vote thrown out when they had their credentials stripped. Rules were changed in order to silence anyone who wasn't going to vote for the guy previously selected, remember the conventions are suppose to be where the party elects the candidate not before. This destroying the voting process, disenfranchised entire states in the GOP and showed how corrupt our political machine is.

My definition:

spoiled child incapable of reason or compromise.

Of course it's the point. What if the guy had been a pure Democrat? It's not democratic to change a party to something it isn't. That party has the right to exist. If you don't fit in there, create your own.
