How does politics really work?
Even in universities, it works the same as how it works in national elections. Sometimes, i feel sad to think that these people with their young minds are already exposed to things like this – competition, power, fame…
But sometimes, there is a need to help look for leaders who could really render good services to the people. The betterment of the society relies on the people who run it, who govern it. So, it is really important that we choose leaders who work for the people and not for themselves.
School is the training ground for leaders. They are molded into good leaders if they are exposed to life’s realism. They can be good leaders if they posses “thinking minds” and “caring yet strong hearts.” They can be made into good leaders if they are molded through time and experience.
But before one could be a leader, he or she needs to run into office (in the case of student council elections but it is different in smaller organizations). There wouldn’t be a desire to run for a position but the desire to serve the students will prevail.
Now, how does politics work in school?
Just the way it is.
Popularity works in politics. That is why, those who are rich and famous end up victorious during elections. While those who are good and experienced, end up worrying about the students.
No doubt, it is a competition of who is more popular and who is not. But a good voter wouldn’t think that way. He or she wouldn’t consider the popularity of the person. It is what that person has done and what it could do if voted into the position.
I just hope everyone in my school could be good voters. I am worried of the student council. I hope, they will vote for leaders who could render good services for them.
He or she doesn’t need to be rich and popular. What is important is that he or she could is a real person and doesn’t have personal interests towards anything….
