New Orleans' Politics

New Orleans politics is like none other. Here you will find politicians changing their race or creed. For example, you might read, information online, about how some politicians were the first black to accomplish this or that; later you might read online articles about how some politicians were the first Creole to accomplish this or that. I know this may be confusing but only in New Orleans will you find politicians being immortalized as black when they want to push the agenda on how they aggressively broke down barriers in order to get to where they are.

Then when they die, somehow they have now become Creoles---as if to say----look at me---I wasn't really black after all. Thanks for voting for me anyway---you black fools---who otherwise I would never have anything to do with. You see, my main purpose was to represent the Creole folks of New Orleans and help them move up in the political arena.

A Wanna Be Politician

Are politicians made or is it that being a politician, you have characteristics, from early on, that determine your destiny? Sometimes people try so hard to fit into that mode but it only leads them desperately in that circle of politicians trying to fit in.

That wanna be politician will find himself desperately trying to climb the political ladder, however, that climb will eventually lead to his demise and the world will know that he is only a pathetic wanna be politician who will only find himself in legal trouble.

Effective Governing vs. Vindictive Governing

When a politician leads with an iron hand, he loses support of the people. Sometimes the people are prevented from eliminating a noneffective politician until his terms runs out. As a result, the City suffers because of the vindictive politician's actions.

The people can later take control when they send a powerful message, to the vindictive politician, that they will never allow him to serve in any future political positions.
