Is it a good idea for Christians to get involved in politics, because if they are involved in it, they tend to lie, make promises they can't fulfill and sometimes get their hands dirty which is sin.

And ministers of the Gospel, are they suppose to endorse any candidate to their congregants. What's your take?

There is no obstacle that anyone can enter politics, but politics must be done honestly. But present day honest politics is most lacking, you mention any country you see ministers are doing most bad deeds. Every person wearing the mask of politics is seeking support from public and when they get support they start doing dirty work. This is not the fault of the Christians, the fault is their character, the more character people have, the better for this society.

Yes I agree with you politics is open to all, only you do such things that your society or country moves forward.  Politics is not only about politicians and governments but also about the collective action of individuals within society to bring about change.  I don't think religion is an issue in politics. Whoever of us participates in politics and works for a better future for all, we can contribute to the progress of our community and nation.
