The 'brilliant' ones that have so much 'intellect' embedded in them come on social media and national dallies to write nice articles and show their writing prowess.

The 'crooks' with no iota of 'sense' in their head take up the challenge, step on toes, dare the devil, make compromises.

The 'brilliant' one says to himself, "I don't want to get into politics, it is a dirty game, I don't want to get my hands dirty". He is not ready to make sacrifices. All he knows is to criticize and show his command of the Queen's language on national television. His views are always insightful but he does not ever want to go into politics.

The 'brilliant' one wants to remain a saint forever in the eyes of his lovers so they can continue to hail him, "Nice one, prof", "You are too good, prof", "You write so well sir, will you take this knowledge to heaven?".

The 'crook' doesn't care to get his hands dirty, he makes compromises nonchalantly, he makes difficult decisions in a split second. He doesn't care about what they say about him. He tells them to rant on, it doesn't do him one thing.

Then on it goes, the clueless 'crook' with no sense of reasoning continues to rule the 'brilliant' one who only sit at the comfort of his keyboard criticizing policies and actions of the government. On it goes, same process every election year. The cycle goes on sadly.

Are you still confused on how we are here as a nation?
