Actually, Nicollo Machiavelli did believe nice guys could gain power.
His personal political theory was based on an idealization of Cicero. It was probably unworkable.
The view you are referencing comes from In Principia or On Principalities, known in the west as The Prince. That work details not Machiavelli's own precepts but those of Cesar Borgia, the fifteenth century warlord son of Pope Alexander XI and brother of Lucrezia Borgia.

“A. Weiner was born this way, and needs to be accepted for his sexual orientation. Acceptance must be without judgement, both from his wife and the public.”
No. Sane and rational people do not need to accept the trappings of mental illness.

FYI...it was Pope Alexander VI. The Showtime series The Borgias portrays many contacts between Cesar Borgia and Machiavelli. They hatched more than a few plots together.
