“Absolutely, positively no, because the system is corrupt. If the system is corrupt, in order to be a politician you almost have to be corrupt.”

Ray Robinson

Placentia

“I really do believe there are still honest politicians. I can’t judge who they are and what they do and what their issues are and what their beliefs are, but I do believe there are honest politicians.”

C.L. Harris

Buena Park

“Yes, I do believe there are some honest politicians. However, it’s kind of sad when you see others that you respected not be so honest.”

I still do think that there [are] honest politicians. But I think that one person messes it up for everyone else. To me, you have to feel the person out and get to know the person.”
