If You Hear "They have Political Ambitions"

In the upcoming weeks if you hear some one say, Yeah they are only bringing up these matters because they have "Political Ambitions", or they are "Politically Motivated", ask yourself a few questions before you agree or disagree with the speaker.

Regardless of the Messenger is the issue being raised related to the good governance of the community?

If the answer is yes, then you may want to ask:

Who's "Political Ambitions" or "Politically Motivated" not to have issues discussed in public or have an informed electorate.

If the answer is no, than you should investigate the issue and the motivation of the speaker at the same time. If your asked to vote for a person who ONLY has their own interests in mind of course you should not vote for that individual.

It should concern the voters more when a person says, that an issue is a non issue, or no big deal, it is the way we have been doing it for years. These are all phrases used to smooth over hidden problems. They are also ways to continue to hide problems and if elected cause future problems to be perpetuated within the governance of our city.
