And THAT is exactly what i have against most politicians today.

I want principled people who can articulate a position and then make their decision based on that basic philosophy.
Its one of the reason I actually like Hillary--I disagree with her, but I KNOW where she will stand on almost any issue. Same, in a grudging way for the President. he is doctrinaire, and will always take a radical position.

Most of the repubs i see, are not concerned with overall philosophy, and I see that as a fault. As it says in the Bible, ( or nearly so) I would rather you were hot or cold, but instead you are lukewarm ( tepid) and I will spite you out of my mouth.
