More accurately,
Judge a politicians beliefs by his actions.
His or her actions are dictated by his or her beliefs (most of the time).
They are linked as one is the result of the other.
We use one (actions) to determine the other (beliefs) thereby understanding how the person will represent us.

Well, according to the current rate politicians' beliefs start at $100,000 and go up from there. Senior politicians charge a premium, so you may want start with a couple of the newer politicians. Actions start somewhere around the $500,000 mark for small favors. Occasionally you can get a good deal on the auction sites like p-ebay. Usually all the really good political actions are bought up by the oil lobby and media lobbies though. Keep an eye out for the free agents, as sometimes they can get surprising results.
If you're cash poor, that's no reason to lose hope. Small favors can now be had for around $250,000 if you throw in a hooker and a trip to foriegn nation.

Try as we may, you cannot separate a man from what he believes. His convictions govern his actions. His beliefs make him what he is!! A scuz ball, will behave like a scuz ball! An honest man will behave honestly! A crook will behave like a crook! And a saint will behave like a saint!!! There are no exceptions!!! Sometimes it takes a while for a mans true colors to show! But they always do sooner or later!!!!

Only if those actions are limited to his political voting record. I couldn't care less about his personal life so long as he obeys the law.

It works for me. One must also include changes in opinion due to a change in beliefs. In other words, action of saying oops I have learned from my mistake.

Well, I would imaine his/her beliefs would in some way dictate his/her actions...that's why the "choosing judges" issue is so large.

If that's the case, then I don't like any politicians.

Yes. Voting records tell the tale.
