A Politician has the ability to stage a coup on the Daedalus. Once the respective action has been performed, the player will become the 
Commander upon the next cycle change (or, if the ship is not yet full at that time, when titles are first assigned).
The position is held for the rest of the game or until the player dies, at which point the old hierarchy is restored.
Needless to say, this is a very dangerous skill in Mush hands, as it gives them another way of moving the ship to abandon an exploration team or fighter pilots to their deaths (besides using the less reliable 
Hacker Kit or setting up a 
Transfer into the acting Commander). Two more, in fact, if you count taking over Kuan Ti's body first.
- This basically forces away teams to take any existing or potential Politician along in addition to the acting Commander whenever they start an expo, launch only at times that will let them come back before a cycle change, or at least guard the rear/front corridor to restrict NERON/Bridge access.
On the other hand Politician can be a useful tool for the human team to relieve an unwilling or incapable Commander of his duties without killing them or waiting for inactivity to kick in. Or to perform an important action at a critical moment when, for some reason, the Commander is not expected to be there in time.
In any case, it can be expected that this skill is only picked when it is about to be used. - Do not trust a KT with inexplicably open skill slots.
