"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch." This quotation has been attributed to Benjamin Franklin, though some contest this. Personally I don't care. It's true. Smart, competent, selfless, courageous people seek power largely because stupid, incompetent, selfish cowards seek it also. I'm political because I choose to ally myself with the former group and bitterly resist the latter.
