So, have you ever thought of running for elected public office? . . . you can, but how do you begin? Before you make an announcement, you must examine your motives. You can save yourself a lot of heartbreak by doing so. You must enjoy teamwork, you must have the consuming drive necessary for door-to-door campaigning for hours and days on end; you must be willing to live in a fishbowl with your entire life, past and present, open for inspection to all, you must be willing to attend endless fundraisers, make appearances, give speeches, smile when you don’t feel like it, be nice to people you don’t really want to be nice to. You must be able to attract supporters willing to work on your campaign, doing hours of such types of work as addressing and stuffing envelopes, finding locations for and putting up and taking down lawn signs, running from house to house for literature drops and spending countless hours on the phone at the phone bank asking for votes and money. You also need to study up on the issues. You will run into people that have very different opinions than yours and come out of the conversation with their vote . . . do you think you can do that? This blog site is a perfect place to practice. . . .
