People just won’t vote for someone they’ve never heard of, and one cannot become known unless he has the money to spend to allow the sheeple to become acquainted with you. And then the sheeple may not like you after you do all that for them.
And that’s why I’m feeling a bit ‘curfuddled’. I prefer to just put my nose down and work the issue, but either we are beyond hope or we just need some folks to fix it and screw the politics. Someone said glass half full or half empty - I think we’re at the line on if we can head the right direction. I’m not an attention seeker but I can give a speech and put a team together with a set of goals. I can explain myself and I’m down to earth, but I refuse to promise things not in my power or inappropriate. I do appreciate the matter of fact response you gave me as it is similar to my own mental argument going for some time.
