Those you view as leaders are just people who thirst for power or who have some desire to help. They come and go. They are no wiser than anyone else. They don’t hold answers for anyone, and you can see who tries to help and who is only focused on their needs. The principle of good and bad is relative. People see through their own lenses and view of the world. You assume people care about others. Don’t assume anything about people. Watch what they do. How do they vote on issues and why? What are their actions and behaviors. Only believe words, when the actions match the words. Stop making excuses for the behaviors of others. You are responsible for your words, actions, and deeds.
