- How to Become a Politician?
A politician is a participant of politics. Participation in politics may be permanent or occasional. Officials from public authorities and authorized persons of political parties participate in politics permanently. Citizens participate in politics periodically. Example of periodical participation of citizens in politics is participation in events during the preparation of elections, participation in voting, participation in events after elections till the date of announcing the results of voting. If the number of public political events decreases, the periodicity of citizens’ participation in politics also decreases. For this reason, Politician is a permanent participant of politics. Unlike politicians, citizens are not politicians. To become a politician one should become an official in the state body, for example, the President, or an authorized person of a political party, for example, the leader of a political party. The number of vacancies in the authorities is limited. For example, the position of the President is one. According to this criterion, not all those who want to be politicians can become them. There is an opportunity of constant participation in politics in the role of a leader of a political party. Thus, to become a politician it is enough to become the leader of a political party.
