Credentials Are Essential
The only interest I have in politicians,
Is how accomplished they are,
Some country's definitions,
Fall short of this by far.
They vote for future presidents,
For their charisma and charm
Without looking for evidence
That lack of government knowledge
Could cause world wars and harm.
Once voted into office,
All management will go askew
Because they are wet behind the ears
With no idea of what they are supposed to do.
What is their reason for applying for this position?
Ego and greed is a dangerous addition;
To add to this sad state of affairs,
Who cares?
Nobody, it seems,
The whole world is in a mess,
Because the powers that be won't address
The fact that is essential
To employ people with the credentials.
