Has anyone here ever run for public office or held a public office position?

How about just thought about it?

I'm not quite old enough to do so yet, but maybe one day I will.

I was just told last night by a gentleman of the US House that so far I have "made all the right moves". Now I know I don't have a chance at a position like that, but it got me thinking.

I have done lots of volunteer work in both areas of the country I have lived in, I know a lot of community leaders and powerful people all over the country, etc.

A curious thing to think about, especially since none of that has ever been done for the purpose of running for office in the future.

I've thought about doing it as a lark, but not really as running as a serious candidate. More of a "DJ Davis, He Won't Save Us" campaign for you "Treme" fans.

Do you remember for what office? I would most likely start with a municipal office, county/parish is a big first step.

Ran for commission in the last primary. By far, the most qualified, but too young and lost to the guy who had been foreman for the past 8 years.......because no one "knew me". Lost by 400 votes.

When you are young you either can't win or you have to spend 50% more on a campaign than the people you are running against.

I would rather be a Community Organizer. More money, more women, and you can get away with a bunch of illegal activities easier.
