Lawyers, or legally educated people, form a large portion of people that run most western democracies. This is the necessary outcome of having any proper governance system that observes the rule of law. Law is very difficulty, it takes a lot of training to understand the Law. The law is probably the most complex "purely-man-made" science. Our laws today is the product of 1000 years of legal thinking of past lawyers, judges, and politicians.

25 past US presidents has passed the Bar, that is about 60%. that list includes most of the better ones such as Jefferson, Lincoln, FDR.
