Governments are political Institutions with Power; People are Real and they 'run' for political Office.

Nations and Governments are absolutely 'necessary' political Institutions. They have, and they need, Political Power, to function. But, the Individuals they Govern are Real. When you weigh the difference between an Institution and a Real Human Being, the Institution has to take 'Second Place'. Human Beings are more important than Institutionalized political ideologies. Why? Simply because no Ideology, of whatever kind, ever created a Human Being; human beings create Ideologies. Humans were here before Political ideologies arrived. True, a Human Being is 'born into' a Political ideology, or a 'form of Government', but the 'human condition' never loses his/her 'humanity'. It is equally true that any 'form' of Government can be Democratic, if it so chooses. But, is that ever the case? Does an Autocratic Government respect, defend, and organizes itself, around the 'Freedom and Equality' of 'its People'? Does a Plutocratic Government do that, or, does an Oligarchic Government do that? In the interest of fairness, does a Democratic Government do that? Unfortunately, they do not! Why not? The age old saying "Power corrupts; absolute Power corrupts absolutely" is true. Also true, 'economic values' have taken over the 'political system'. How sad. The problems of Governments are due to the 'weakness' of the Human condition. All Heads of Governments are Human. All Governments have Power at the Top. All Politicians seek Political Power. Evidently, Human Beings do not 'understand political power'; and they cannot 'handle Political Power'. Can a 'Political Institution' be 'purged' of its 'economic infections'? How sad. Where are the "Real States-persons"?
