Values and Reflective Processes, Empowering Exceptional People
We’re like to fund ways to pull people who don’t run for political office to run for political office. It’s like a MacArthur. You get a call one day. You’ve been selected. You’d make a great public servant, even if you don’t know it. You’d get some training, like DCCC and NRCC, and when you run, you get two million spent by the super-PAC run by the best. They’ve done the analysis. They’ll provide funding. They’ve lined up endorsers. You’ve never thought about politics, but they’ve got your back. Say what you want to say, make a difference in the world: run the campaign you don’t mind losing. And if you win, make it real.
Great idea, at TFG we have similar thoughts and are currently researching if we should run it and the best way to run a program like this. Would love to get input from people on this.
