Think it’s douchey for young guy to be in politics?
Long story, short but this is my cousin. Who is mayor of podunk Kansas town. You think it’s stupid for young guy to be In Politics? I don’t like him so don’t care. Just curious. Look forward to smart debate.
I think it is great for a young person to get involved in local politics. One of my best friends ran for the school board of my small town and won election while he was still in college. After about ten years of that, he ran for mayor, won that election, and was re-elected for the next more than 30 years. Individuals can make a big difference, both positive and negative, in a small town. If your cousin uses his political skills to benefit the community, he could make a positive difference.
I guess it depends on where he's coming from. If he's smart, wants to make people's lives better and could do it better than others there, it can make some sense. If he's some ideologue who's in it for himself or just wants to sell horseshit to idiots then it's a joke.
@RylanTheHusker I'll take your word for it but 10,000 people is still a lot of people. There's real consequences, good or bad, that one person could have over a lot of folks. Towns don't run themselves.
They always promise to make things better,to improve the world..but very seldom do. In fact they more often than not make things worse for the common folk. Then again that's what its all about. Bullshitting the public and suckering them out of as much cash as possible.
