True. But it tells of a power structure based on laws that is rotten, as the laws preventing the power structure turning into one of absolutism could easily be dismantled by a lesser appointed official and a secret army. If Jar Jar could get the job, imagine how many other idiots would have been representatives in the Galactic Senate, that were appointed by people from the galactic senate themselves. It's a classic case of nepotism.
Star Trek on the other hand thought that utopian socialism was almost upon us, with a world war repeat in between, as social democracy was implemented in the US out of fear of a socialist uprising.
