Poll question: Which job would you want most

I'm trying to understand the attraction of politicians going from one job to another other than to stay in power.

Edit: I had to change the poll upon knowledge that you could only vote once.

1. NOTA

hard to be irresponsible when you're responsible for so many

[Bombtrack]

2. somthing out of the spotlight but with power

like a major state governors chief of staff or something

[eyesroll]

3. Nah. I'm strictly support staff, politically

Maybe a campaign person, press secretary, or someone's brain (kinda like Karl Rove but female and not evil and hopefully advising someone smarter than *, so OK nothing like Karl Rove).

4. I wouldnt want any of those jobs..

for any reason..

5. I can't vote in this poll.

The idea of being a politician makes me physically sick.

6. Vice President

Apparently, all you need to do is show up for the State of the Union speech and maybe to break a tie in the Senate. He doesn't pay rent, collects a fat salary, and can travel anywhere he wants for free. And everybody's just fine with all this as long as he's in "a secure location." I'd trade places with Dick Cheney any time.

7. You don't even really have to show up for the State of the Union...

They can say that there's a possible security threat, claim you're going to a secure location and plump the President Pro-Tem in your chair.

8. NPS Super

National Parks System Superintendent would be fun. I could get paid to visit all of the national parks.

Betcha I could get some sweet backcountry permits, too.

This is assuming I would be in an administration that actually supports the park system. Whoever holds that position now has a shit job. (Probably a former/current lumber lobbyist)

9. Deputy Director, National Security Agency

The Director of NSA is a three-star figurehead. The Deputy Director is the guy with the power in that place.
