There is a small part of me that thinks that what this country needs is more progressive women in politics and that I have the time now in my life to get more involved. But there are two things I lack that seem to be required: a lot of money and a religion. I can see the following dialog:
Reporter: I can see from your Facebook account that you state as your religion "none". I take it from that that you are not a Christian.
Me: I feel that my religious views should not be part of this campaign. Do you have other questions for me?
Reporter: Are you a Muslim or a Jew or an Atheist?
Me: I feel that my religious views should not be part of this campaign. Do you have other questions for me?
Reporter: Do you support prayer in the schools?
Me: People can pray whenever and wherever they want, as long as it doesn't involve innocent bystanders. It can be a completely private activity. Do you have other questions for me?
And so on.
And the money thing is a problem, too. My husband has a job, but I don't. You can't get elected to anything these days without money. Sigh.
Guess I will remain an unknown.
