POLITICS
****************************
When Gandhi, Einstein, and Thomas Mann
were offered the presidency of India, Israel, and East Germany respectively,
they said, no thanks.
Which reminds me of Plato's dictum that
those who seek power are the least qualified to handle it.
That to me might as well be the most convincing explanation
as to why world history is an endless catalog of lies, disasters, and tragedies.
