This question was kind of inspired by a friend of mine on here. Have any of you ever run or considered running for public office?

[Beckybooboo]

Maybe some of you have actually served! Which I think is cool. I just thought the replies might be interesting. And NO, I’m not very political but members of my family are.

[MiddleAgedClimbee]

I have never served any political office. Only been on a few committees back in the day when I actually worked for somebody else. I try to get the boys out to volunteer for a trail cleanup a couple times a year. That's as close as I will ever get :-)

[Beckybooboo]

I think you would be a good voice of reason! You seem really grounded and like you would only do what’s best. You kind of remind me of my dad, no offense! 😜 You just seem like you would bring calmness to a debate.

[MiddleAgedClimbee]

That's high praise :-). It's easy to be calm and relaxed on this platform, but we both actually have tempers that we have to control at home. Parenting can be hard!

[Wallythewalrus2]

Psshh! If I was elected to office, I would be dead in a month! Either a drug overdose, surrounded by chicks and a couple gay guys or killed! No thank you! I got enough fucking problems!

[Beckybooboo]

No one would vote for you, Waldo! Too many skeletons in the closet but I’m happy to see you’re slowly coming out of the closet! I’m sure the women throughout the great state of Kansa are celebrating. Celebrating 🥳

[PBandJ_Nerd]

Nope. If I did, I'd have no clue what I'd be doing. lol

[Beckybooboo]

That would make two of us! I’d probably cry a lot too when people talk bad about me.

[PBandJ_Nerd]

I'd either cry or become an unintentional bitch. LOL

[Beckybooboo]

😂😂😂

[exitseven]

Yes, i thought about running for state rep. The one we had was a complete boob.. I thought I could debate him anmd make him look like a fool. Then he died in his swimming pool. Hios wife ended up finishing his term. She was just as dumb but I was not going to be the guy to run against a dead guy's wife.

[ChicoFromThe305]

Nope I refuse to sell my soul, I know that's what it will lead too and let's be foreal, I know I won't really have any say in anything, I'd just be a puppet.

[Beckybooboo]

That’s kinda what I’m wondering if someone had served. Would they feel pressured to go against their conscience or even get bribes. 😂

[ChicoFromThe305]

It's not bribes becky, they are threats 😂

Only selling your soul involves money and sometimes I think even requires sacrifices, possibly a loved one, I think a few artists sacrificed their own mothers for fame, doing rituals and shit, they can keep their political job tf 😂

[NathanDavis]

I've been invited a few times, to get into politics and no... nope, no way

will never happen

[BoopBoopBeep]

No I've worked on putting in or removing enough elected people to have lost any taste for doing it myself

[andreasderjuengere]

When I look around and see the folks I'd have to represent,

... and what kind of person I'd become myself...

I'd rather find me a job as a lighthouse keeper somewhere in Siberia.

[SotiCoto]

Nah. Politicians are scum. I'd like to start a riot though.

[BCA6010]

Probably nothing "higher" than city level where I could have a direct impact.

[AviatorTom]

Nope, I'm too smart to run for a thankless job.

[RedInnocent68]

Yes. Often when I was younger, but can’t be bothered anymore. Now following politics is more of a hobby.

[worldscolide]

Oh god no. I dont want that kind of microscope applied to my life.

[HouseMoat]

I'm going to be 35 in an election year. I'm seriously considering throwing my name in the hat for president

[Lyndsielee666]

I’d rather pluck out my eyeballs and eat them

[Worst]

I'd rather die then join the political space

[MikeTheBartender]

Hell no! Too many sex tapes would surface!

[Sparkie460]

I. Not into politics so no I wouldn't

[Staximus]

Hell no, fastest way to make enemies

[Kelly6]

Nope

Never

[Anonymous]

I have. Nobody voted for me.

[LavLavLuv]

No☝️No☝️
