Writing // Polit....ing?

Based on what I know from both half, yes. I know those who write who claim they want nothing to do with politics in any way shape or form, and the same for those who closely follow and enjoy, who do little to know writing. And while the people I know aren't exactly a great measurement of ALL writers and politicians. They don't seem to connect very well, if at all. Writers only seem to get involved in politics in their writing, based on what is going on at the time they are writing or what event is happening that could involve politics. Some would argue that politicians do write, the speeches and presentations they give are written beautifully. The point would be valid, if politicians actually wrote their own speeches. Writers and politicians do not cross paths typically at all, however as far as them disagreeing, I'm unsure. I think it's more of a case by case idea.
