Being involved with politics and conservative activism since. Really it started on 9/11 when I was still in High School. But as a voter it started in 2004 when I went door to door and worked the phones for President Bush.
I have to say that being involved with politics in turning into a nightmare in my life. I am truly thinking about living how my grandfather lived. Just tuning out and focus on nothing but raising my family, working hard during the week a then going fishing on the weekends or something like that. The man was one of least informed people I know. He never let anything bring him down and maybe that is why.
I have dreamed of how great it would be to serve in congress or be a governor. I love my country so much. But if the politician I admire the most is chased out of her statehouse and then rejected as a fool by the American people. What kind of chance would I have ?
No. I am not obsessed with Governor Palin. I see a lot of me and who I want to be in her. I have been rooting for her because I wanted to see if a kid born into a middle class family in some little town like myself could ever have a chance to become a leader and make our country better. I feel like the answer is becoming clear.
and I feel like giving up.
