    Good men like Jon don’t seek that kind of power. They don’t want it. That’s why it’s only ever assholes that get it.

    You have to step on people to make it up the ladder as a politician. Jon Stewart is not that man.

    Go watch the show VEEP and look at literally any character that has some amount of power. It’s a pretty good look at the kind of person you have to be at that level of government.

      Do you have experience in government to be able to claim that veep is a good example of how it goes?
