    I understand all that but instead of starting with ways to start naturally and get your name out there it was directly to money. No, conversation on anything else. Just a dollar threshold for us to hit or get out of their hair.

    This was with the “run for something” group while in Florida. But there was definitely people from other states and they were all equally disturbed at the immediate grilling for us to fund ourselves and to be in a major religion.

    I do get that it seems ass backwards and incompatible with how a person would actually run for a local position and it’s why a lot of people have become disenfranchised by the whole system and party.

        Oh sure. And I left but the group I worked with is national and as they brag the largest entry point for new candidates and they weren’t the state.

        Florida just ends up an easy excuse to ignore that it’s millions of people experiencing situations closer to mine.

        It’s not like Florida was a swing state or anything with a huge population and economy.
