Moving From Business to Politics



It seems that practically every politician recently moved from business or law into politics. In college I considered majoring in Political Science because I eventually wanted to be a part of the political world. However, after studying various politicians and their rise to power I realized one thing. You have to have money to get into politics, and there isn’t a lot of money available to students who graduate in political science. President Obama was a very successful lawyer as was his wife before they entered the political arena. The Bush family has a ton of money as well. When it comes down to getting into politics, it doesn’t matter what you major in, rather how much you can spend on a campaign.
