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 full at that time, when the Mush are chosen).
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 dangerous skill in Mush hands, as it gives them a third way of moving the ship to abandon an exploration team or airborne pilots, besides using the less reliable 
Hacker Kit or setting up a 
Transfer into the acting Commander. A fourth, in fact, if you count transferring into Kuan Ti first.
- This basically forces away teams to take both the acting captain and any existing or potential Politician along every time, as long as either of them could be or become a Mush.
On the other hand it can be a useful tool for the human team to relieve an incapable Commander of his duties, other than killing them or waiting for inactivity to kick in. Or to perform an important action in a critical moment.
In any case, it can be expected that this skill is only picked shortly before it is used.
