    "I also think that you might just have a little trouble stopping once you get started."

    For the power-hungry know no limits.

    "How about the Runner up Ms. California and the politics being used by the gay community to destroy her name because of her stance on marriage....."

    she's politicizing her position as well though, she's a spokesperson now for an anti-gay marriage movement while still fulfilling her role as Ms. California (and she is kind of a bigot when you read her interviews)

    "John,
    Anyone who opposes or supports any moral or apparent moral attitude on any topic, can be accused of being a bigot."

    People deserve equal rights

    it would be hard to call that statement a form of bigotry.

    Power does corrupt...Almost always, however the implementation of heightened morality plus the induction of purpose and resolve and training plus empathy diminishes it.

    Although sometimes there are exceptions to that rule.

    As for the topic, why not focus on one form of corruption and speak more on certain examples...Like bribery, you could bring to light the issue of the former Lords getting bribes from lobbyists for influence.
