One night, In the heat of our current craziness, I had a realization. Our house is going to burn down and we can’t wait on someone to come save us. We, the people, must take action- NOW.
Our current class of political elite have largely convinced us that even though they’re the ones who have gotten us into this mess, they’re the only ones who can get us out. I wholeheartedly reject that.
They have convinced us that we’re incapable of serving and of making a difference. In Brutus no.1, he explicitly warned about our exact situation we find ourselves in. A disconnected group of self serving elite with no sense of reality for the majority of the people. I’m not running for the prestige or the status, I much prefer the quiet life. I’m running because I don’t see anyone else doing the right thing. Ronald Reagan said “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction”.
I refuse to be the generation who lost the next their freedom.
