Default What Politician Fits Your Bill?

I am curious.

Would you rather have a politician who truly represents what his people want? For instance, if a politician passes legislation that a majority of Americans approve of regardless of potential outcomes?

Or would you rather have a politician who will ignore what the masses want, and pass legislation he/she feels will ultimately serve their people better. IOW, someone who will do what is best for the country regardless of what their constituents say.

Yeah, a combination of the two would be nice. But I am not asking that. Choose one of the two options.

(I guess, I am sorta asking if you prefer a true representative government versus a philiosopher-king type approach.)
