Someone that young, my big question would be "who's advising you".
Still, good luck kid, it'll be interesting to see if he gets involved in politics on a slightly less ambitious scale after this effort fails. Hope he doesn't end up Vermont's Goodspaceguy. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodspaceguy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodspaceguy)

- CamelCaseName 8y agoI wrote in to Vermin Supreme asking for endorsement when I ran for hugh school president, promising to make a whole bunch of whacky and unsustainable rules. Unfortunately (and understandably) I wasn't elected, but getting to say that I was backed by a US presidential candidate over the PA system was fun. I still have his email printed out in a memory box somewhere.
- rosege 8y agoCheck out Rick Mercer - Talking to Americans. Its on YouTube. The whole show is great, but aging now. But he gets various members of congress to endorse Canada building a national igloo among other things.
