Why politics Matter/examples: Politics matter because of two reasons who should govern, and the end towards which they should work. We want to know who should govern because we believe that those who rule - their personalities and beliefs, their virtues and vices will affect what they do for us. We want to know the ends toward which they should work because it tells us how the gov. affects our lives. Politics: self/class interests: Most people holding office our white protestant males who are middle class and aged and we cannot assume that the government will only adopt policies for those who are male white protestants. If we did we wouldn't understand why the rich are taxed more than the poor and why the war on poverty was declared. Women and blacks were given rights.
