I think it’s best to have people aware of the flaws instead of hidden from the people like it is with 0bambi and his ilk.

I agree. I'd much rather have it out in the open.

Certainly some transgressions are worse than others. So if a politician has some particularly bad ones, he'd probably be wise to keep them secret. (This wisdom is not lost on the politicians.)
