Expand all |Collapse all

I’m am the person I keep thinking we are electing. I’m the frustrated citizen who feels voiceless when I realize who I’ve voted for sold me a bill of goods. Im me. Im not a career politician. I have my career that I love but j am willing to sacrifice this small window in time to pursue what I believe needs to be restored while we push for generational representation so we can build a future along with those in office, with an actual understanding of what it is we need and want going into it.
Healthcare. Preventative healthcare. Mental health. Local economy. Education reform. Our working class as we adapt to automation.
Aside from my faith as a Christian, I’ve looked up to people like Jackie Robinson who recognized and welcomed the resistance knowing his movement was bigger than him. Extremely admirable.
Morals, ethics, and not having a fear of saying “I don’t know”. Lying and giving a political run around to give an answer without an answer is learned through being a career politician. Transparency and honesty are missing and we need them back.
I have not just a willingness but a desire to communicate and listen. That sounds so basic, however, I don’t see this being a requirement anymore. The current atmosphere is very much “listen to me and how smart I am”.
To represent. To be transparent and honest. To not take from America for self gain but to give to America as to better it.
I want to pioneer the next generation of politicians and be a motivation for those who maybe lacked the initial gumption to get up and try. The current system is built to be intimidating. We need to change this for our citizens. People should want to provide a civil service.
I was a golf shop bag attendant for 3 years.
The Boys of 62 (currently un-published). it’s my fathers memoir.
Reality is too entertaining to want to be a fictional character. But… Deadpool seems fitting. And yes…I am smirking. *Boop*
I’ve always been an underdog. I was never the most gifted in school, sports, social settings and growing up was a bit difficult because of it. I set goals, however, and I would not stop until I achieved them.
Accepting that the future is here, now. Our leaders have done a great job in pushing the future further away as it arrives. It’s time to adapt. It’s time we reach out to the innovators and start accepting the changes so we can enhance America.
Absolutely needed. If the highest rank can only hold a 4 and 2, that should be the maximum for all offices, including the Supreme Court.

Getting in, getting things done, and realizing that our world changes decade by decade. Welcoming fresh ideas because those ideas are manifested from the evolution of the world should absolutely be adopted.
It’s supposed to be composed of both likeminded and opposition minded people who are able to work through issues and get things done. Real things that matter and impact those who have voted them in to represent them.

The ability for them to be vessels from citizens to communicate to their colleagues about wants and needs.

It’s an admirable seat when it’s treated as a privilege rather than a “deserved” position.
No. I believe most come through “the system”, starting off with potential for good intention and then become tainted by the system itself.

The longer you’re in politics, the more tainted you become. “Owing” favors and “protecting” the donors who “helped” get you their.

It’s supposed to be a civil service, not a career.
I think it’s absolutely insane that we have leaders in office who are incapable of leading by example. It’s baffling to know that these same leaders are incapable of budging to move America forward, putting ego and pride behind them. This isn’t just a Right Vs Left issue either. It trickles downhill.

Leaders lead by example. Those who watch, exhibit the same behaviors. We see nothing but hate from our leaders. What kind of America do we live in where the opposing party roots for their own president to fail?
Morals. Ethics. Character. How long they’ve been in actual politics. How well they get along with other world leaders. Communication. Not surrounding themselves with yes people. Recognizing that no one on earth has all of the answers and not pretending to be someone who has them all.

Common sense and relatability.
Simple. Their morals, character, and their willingness and ability to not bury their past but explain how their past help build them into who they are.

100% of us would have avoided doing some of the things we did had we knows they culture would change down the road. Hindsight is always 20/20.

Mutual understanding and a willingness to speak in layman’s. Comfortable, non hostile and determined to get things done… on BOTH sides. Easily approachable from BOTH sides.
There will always be a give and take. However, there is no reason why “additional” items should be ADDED as part of a compromise. A natural compromise would only relate to the removal of items in a bill to ensure its strong as it passes through to law.
