    I don’t want to hold power i don’t want to be the one. It’s not something I want to do. BUT if the fucking people i choose don’t want to do what I ask them to do i guess I will fucking do it my self.

    I imagine a lot of people were supporting people in power currently or thinking the people they were electing were more qualified and were trying. The democratic party with their move to the right shows they don’t. This inspires people to do it themselves. There is lots of self doubt and reflection in leftists lives. Someone can do it better someone is more experienced, more qualified, deserving or older. Until people drop the ball enough or rage and revolutionary fires are sparked that is when people do things.

      I studied politics, and even then I never wanted to run. I just wanted to be a staffer and work on policy and tactics.

      I left politics because I felt I couldn’t help people, and inter party politics were not something I was interested in. I went back to school so I could help people more directly as a nurse.

      I don’t think I’m a great candidate, but I feel like I have to do something. No one is coming to save us, we have to so it ourselves.
