I said this above but I'll put it here as well: People with integrity in that sense is not really what I meant. How I see it is the current system is almost entirely full of people who were paid off by evil people to pass laws that push towards the elites goals. While it would be nice to have someone who is honest and straight forward, that will never solve any problems because the evil in charge will never allow it. What I mean by integrity is someone who will stay on the path to fixing these major issues and not get paid off or scared away, and if they have to play the system, hide their true intentions and lie to the evil that is in charge I have no problem with that. If you could cure cancer but was only able to do so by lying about your research to the people giving out grants, I think that you would be dishonorable not to do so. I also wouldn't care if someone used pop culture fame and made politics their career if it was for the right reasons. Our enemies do whatever it takes to keep control, it would be nice to take the high road but I'm not sure if that will work. You mentioned working with some politicians before, what do you think were their biggest pitfalls (in ideology and strategy) and their biggest successes?

Whether running as a democrat/republican/other ego - hands down the narcissism was the biggest pitfall the pay people treat others when they're campaigning is a good indication of what they will do if in office, especially if those they mistreat have no money or political clout/capital to shower on their campaign strategy pitfalls vary depending on the district, but i 100% guarantee you if it's a grassroots candidate the over-reliance on career "political animals/actors" is a big pitfall too, the minute you declare candidacy so goodby to your inbox and get a bigger mailbox because there is an ENORMOUS industry behind our uniparty duopoly in America, and they want you to piss off the people so that they get paid - plain and simple - it's not about the policy for them, just whatever pitch they can give to get you to sign in many ways this system in which we are presently selecting electors is every bit as bad as the Slavic oligarchy or Chinese Communist Party's system of selecting junior party leadership - the end result is evil parasitic bureaucratic fucks running the dissemination of public funds for their own private benefit at the expense of the common people
