Well said, and I agree. I have done a lot of community work but backed out of actual political work when I had the offer because I know how gross the game will feel to swim around in it. I have mad respect to the rare political leaders out there who retain their values and sanity while dipping into a world that treats all our lives and futures like pieces on a gameboard, where you have to be willing to sacrifice pieces to win.
