Doubtful, I see no difference between an ex-convict and a career politician. I might actually have a little more trust for a convict that has served his time. But this is not about convicts getting jobs in government....this is about people who have never been charged with a serious crime getting jobs in government (in the eyes of the law they should have the exact same rights as anyone else who has never been convicted). Arrest does not equal conviction. Simple as that.
