by In a way, this article can be helpful to people who run a business because the image is everything. It will also give you ideas on how to market your business because in the case of politicians they are the product. Many countries around the world have high poverty rates because of corruption. Even in a developed country like the United States, there is a high poverty rate because the number of the middle class is decreasing. A lot of politicians don't want people to become smart that's why educational systems remained dated to modern times.
Some politicians have a clean track record, Good credentials, great integrity, and have all the qualifications in the world but cannot win top positions in elections because they lack charisma.
Politics is like American High School in Hollywood movies, Jocks and Cheerleaders are the most popular kids in school while the Academics are seen as nerds.
The masses rather see someone who looks cool and relatable than someone smart. The common denominator is allergic to someone smart. When they try to be relatable they don't connect because no one can relate to book smarts. They are smart but they end up sounding Nerdy instead of articulate.
A lot of countries right now are on the verge of electing dictators and genocide doers because they have the machinery of a good PR team, they make unrealistic promises because it is flashier.
In one country I won't name, The election is between a spoiled brat nepotism politician and an honest self-made person. The Nepotism politician is leading on surveys because he manages to talk the language of the masses while the other one focuses too much on the greater good. Sad as it may sound people don't like what is good for them, that's why most people prefer junk food over clean and delicious meals.
The non-corrupt politicians can't win elections because they can't let loose, they speak in a language the masses cannot understand and they are boring.
Corrupt politicians also play dirty as they take advantage of people's anger even if it's wrong. Countries with low poverty rates have better politicians in power because people who are not starving and financially struggling have better critical thinking. A lot of people in developing countries suffer in a sandwich generation. They have to take care of their children and also take care of their parents. It gives them no time on making deep research on who is better for their country because there is so much going on with their lives.
A lot of corrupt politicians have better marketing right now because they act like influencers. So even if there are craptons of evidence against them, the masses still worship them like God.
Even in the world of business, Charisma is everything. I know there is a saying that we have to be ourselves but to get a market or following, we need to let loose so we won't be like those unpopular nerds in Hollywood movies.
If you want to end the reign on corrupt politicians, You will need long-term planning. If you are doing well financially, support scholars because if they get rich they will support scholars too. Pay it forward!
Also, Help small businesses because if small businesses grow, they can provide jobs. Less poverty means smarter voters.
