A Political Top of Power without a 'Political Language' cannot Govern. Is there such a thing as a 'Political Algorithm'?

A 'Political Top of Power' without a 'Political Language' cannot 'Govern'; its Top will not be 'Cohesive'. But, 'The People' at the Bottom need 'Governing', and the 'Language of Economics' will not suffice. Why not? Simply because that will 'launch' the 'Bottom' of the 'Political', or Social, into 'Economic Principles' of 'Haves' and 'Have-nots', or, more generally, 'economic Principles' that 'characterize' a 'Plutocracy' and that have 'no business' being utilized in a 'Political Democracy'. Well, a 'Top without control' is a 'Political Situation', and 'must be' corrected; a Social cannot be 'Governed' or 'stratified' solely by 'Economic Principles' and 'still claim' to be 'Democratic'. The 'Two systems', Government and Economics' are 'motored' differently and hence, will never have the 'same result'. Hence, we must be very careful. Is there such a thing as a 'Political Algorithm'? 'Algorithms' work, function, in the 'Universe of Computers'; can they work, function, in the 'Universe of Politics'? I have to admit, I'm not a 'Computer Geek' by any stretch of the Imagination, but Algorithms do work in conducting searches for Knowledge in a Computer. In a Democracy the Top of Power 'Represents' all the 'Real Individuals' at the Bottom and certainly that can be 'quantified'. That resolves that ancient problematic of the 'One' and the 'Many'( The Top and the Bottom). Hence, a 'properly formulated' Algorithm. But, it must Govern with Equality and Freedom. Certainly, the Bottom can include 'each' and 'every' 'Real Individual' in its computation; that should also be easy to quantify. But, can 'Equality and Freedom' be computerized? That probably requires an algorithm that includes some kind of 'Institutional Set-Up' that 'insures' that 'Individual Freedom and Equality' to each 'Real Individual'. Oh well; I'll just leave this to someone else more versed in Computer Languages. Lets do it the 'old fashion' way, Where are the 'Real Politicians'? We need 'Real Politicians' versed in 'Democratic Principles' and not 'Economic Principles'. We need Politicians that can do the 'Talk' and the 'Walk'.
