    I wish there was a decent politician that agreed with my political philosophy.

    But there just isn't.

    Think about it. Our best politicians are Ron Paul, Barack Obama, G-Dub and whoever the really far left roll out.

    What a bunch of crap choices.

    And don't give me some Hillary bs. Hillary sux. She's horrible.
    thank you weso1!

    Any decent politician will "agree" with your philosophy and then walk around the corner and agree with its complete opposite. Good politicians are mostly concerned with their careers, not policy. You want a statesman, but those guys get eaten by the sharks on day one.

    That's truth right there. I'm lazy, but I'm going to lift a finger and like that crap.

    The only ones who don't care about power are the crazies. Why do we support these people? we are all sheep or we are crazy.

    I feel like there should be some in betweeners, but there just aren't.

    Think about the ego needed to be a politician - "Hey, vote for me because I'm great and I need to be your leader."

    Isn't it the same as looking for the perfect women? They don't exist. Finding a politician that you agree with 100% is like finding the perfect wife. You just have to line up with whatever one you like the most

    I would be the best, because I am the antithesis of both parties because they suck.

    I only have few 100k in savings and others so I have no chance to run.

    Just start small in your local district. Work your way up like most of us do at our jobs. Small steps in the right direction eventually lead you farther, as long as you keep on walking

    Sorry guys. My 5 year old took my phone when I wasn't looking and typed the OP last night. Gotta watch what your kids are doing when they have your phone. Either that or my account was hacked. I certainly didn't post that.
    thank you weso1!
