Quite interesting reading. I was surprised to read there are many psychopats in prestigious professions and tested the idea while reading Hare's list. I focused on a local particularly evil politician while reading through the list and he did have most of the traits. Until now, I wouldn't have used the word psychopath, just a bad guy. Thanks for sharing.

Yes, most people still associate psychopaths with cold blooded killers. However, even though they might do that, most psychopaths are successful and seek power. So, it is no surprise that there are a lot of psychopaths in politics. Real assholes are often not p-paths though. P-paths are often very charming and disguised.
