    If anything, watching these people in our government do what they do gives me hope that more people will feel encouraged to take up running for government office.

    If that’s all it takes to get in the bar for entry is lower than any other 6 figure job in this country. All you need is a platform, a high school diploma or ged, and enough people to see the letter R or D next to your name and think that you’d do fine. Might even go the extra step for a name change. First name “Congressman”, last name can stay the same. I’m sure there are districts this would absolutely work in.
