I live in a deep red area with a communist run city council, I've decided to run for my district to do my part. I visited my county GOP office to ask for advice, he said "she's crooked with big money behind her, the election is in 2 years and you need to start Preparing right now."
After he probed me trying to find out my genuine political affiliation he promised "$1,200 to my campaign" then informed me I would be dedicating a majority of my life to this, I needed to ask my wife if I have her full support, and that I would go through the gauntlet as far as my past, and I would have to raise money, knock doors, surround myself with like minded patriots and garner their support.
I was shocked that this is what it takes to run for city council in a city of 70k. But I'll do it, because I don't want a communist takeover, and I think you should all do the same thing, if you don't run, find a local patriot group and go to the meetings, and support them.
Thats all, Me for city council 2022
It's what it takes to run for the smallest office, and the largest. Because anyone unwilling to walk a mile will always be beat by whomever is eager to walk two - doesn't matter if the end of those miles is a pot of gold or a two day old sandwich.
Either spend every free hour on the campaign, or be beat by someone who does. And that's why a supportive wife is critical, not just because you can't be distracted by divided interests and goals derailing things half way in, but because you literally need someone pulling the slack and happy to do so on the homefront because you'll be completely indisposed for a year or more.
That all being said, you're right. We have to do our part. I see too many willing to sacrifice their lives, and too few willing to sacrifice a few years. We don't need people willing to die for their country right now, but we do desperately need people willing to live for it. Those unwilling or unable to run should be lining up behind folk like you to help you in your run. There's no "I" in WWG1WGA
No poor dumb bastard ever won a war by dying for his country, he won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country.
