The question I want to ask is: why should politicians wear business clothes? Politics is not business. Politics is statism. Throughout the pre-colonial non-Western world, people in government did not dress like businesspeople (and would have been aghast at the very suggestion of doing so) because they trivially understood the above. Only from the colonial-era onwards (when the colonialist East/West India Company owners, who were businesspeople, were the true overlords of the colonies which they exploited for profit as businesspeople would) did it become fashionable for their local puppets to dress like them also:

Therefore to continue to do so is to continue to symbolically affirm colonialism. True Leftist Gaddafi understood this (see pictures above). Similarly, I hope to see Bush (and the rest of the Squad, and eventually all Blue politicians) working for America in non-business outfits in future.
