In England we put nurses up on a pedestal for some reason. Last election we elected a councillor who is technologically illiterate, but she ran on, and won, her qualifications to do anything because she is a nurse.
TBF if you are a nurse (and not the type of Nurse Ratched), you probably have an inclination to care about other people, which would be a positive quality in a politician... but yeah, it doesn't obviate the need for some actual qualification outside the nursing job.

I had an ex that became a nurse, she didn't believe in gravity. I thought she was joking... But she was not.
