First of all, I don’t agree with my husband. I think that some politicians are decent human beings. I do think it’s very difficult to become president (as opposed to a lower-ranking politician) and remain a decent human being, but I think it’s possible. I was simply quoting my husband b’sheim amro. (My mother, incidentally, agrees with him– she’s fond of saying “They’re all crooks!”)
Second of all. I think that the inherent immoral temptations of a career in politics are significantly more dangerous than the inherent immoral temptations of a career in acting.
