This is absolutely nothing to do with his colour, or religion, or sex, or orientation, or anything other than .him deliberately seeking a position of extreme power.
I trust no one that seeks power and am immediately cynical about their motives.

that's a very dull view. how would you prefer it?some nobody gets power thrust upon him purely because he doesn't want it?
of course he wants power but that's no reason to be cynical, i do agree with the view that a lot of people seeking power are doing so for the wrong reasons, but sometimes you have to suspend dis-believe to allow for hope, otherwise what's the point of participating in society? you might as well become a hermit, only then you'll still be subject to the laws, but with no way of affecting change in them.

I agree that people are capabale of despicable and disgusting thingsand the people most likely to commit these despicable and disgusting acts are people in power ... I just don't feel that one follows directly from the other and that using the death of a beloved relative for political gain is low even by the low moral standards of the political classes.
