Why should politicians be politically correct?

Asked by josie (30934points) September 21st, 2015

It seems like every week Donald Trump is the subject of somebody’s demand for an apology for being nothing more than politically incorrect.

Dr. Ben Carson is being criticized for being politcally incorrect in saying that he doesn’t think a Muslim would be a good fit for the White House.

It seems to me, you would want to hear exactly what politicians think, instead of the usual ambiguous jabber that they usually engage in.

At least, when the time comes to vote, you know what you are voting for or against.

Isn’t this kind of honesty a virtue for the candidate, and truth in advertising for the voter?
