I remember in school, reading about the founding fathers and early American government. It seemed like serving in office was a part-time job that successful men did, bringing their experience to the table.
And I compared that to what I saw (1980ish and included a stint serving as a WA state House page) where most politicians seemed to be professional politicians. Little did I know back then as a teenager.
When I heard about Ron Paul (1988), who-hoo, that's when I really started to find out!
This is an amazing time. I hope this is the end to professional politicians.

Yep, public service was a sacrifice you made for your community.
Make term limits great again.
