Politics Explained
A little boy looks up at his father and asks, "Dad, what's politics?"
Dad says, "Well, son, let me try to explain it to you this way." I'm the breadwinner of the family, so let's call me "Capitalism." Your Mom is the administrator of the household, so we'll call her "The Government." We're here to take care of your needs so we'll call you "The People." The nanny works hard all day for very little money so, we'll consider her "The Working Class." And your baby brother... we'll call him "The Future."
Now, think about that and see if it makes sense. So, the little boy goes off to bed, thinking about what his Dad has said. Later that night he hears his baby brother crying so he gets up to check on him. He finds that the baby has severely soiled his diaper.
So the little boy goes to his parents' room and finds his mother sound asleep. Not wanting to wake her, he goes to the nanny's room. Finding the door locked, he peeks through the keyhole and sees his father in bed with the Nanny. He gives up and goes back to bed.
The next morning, the little boy says to his father, "Dad, I think I understand the concept of politics now." The father says, "Good son, tell me in your own words, what you think politics is about."
The little boy replies, "Well, while Capitalism is screwing the Working Class, the Government is sound asleep, the People are being ignored, and the Future stinks.

Politics is about power, power is the ability of A to make B do what B would not have done in absences of A.
Even a child which you refered in your text as nunny plays politics and has power.when a child cries in the middle of the night he or she will make the father or the mother awake.whether you will like it or not you will wake up and attend to the needs of that child.That is politics.when the people put demands on a government for their needs to be fulfil that is also politics.
In short, politics is the ability of one person to influence another person or a group of people for fulfilment of a need or needs.
