Very true, we are all flawed humans.
It would do us good to examine why democratically elected positions don't often attract the right people, I suspect some mix the right people are often too busy, don't want to deal with the harassment, can't afford it. And that last point is critical, greed as a character flaw skews to the wealthy.
Then there is marketing/charisma angle, even if you objectively have the best person in hand... they still need to be elected, which is tougher to solve
