The Senate..........a 6 year term........then back home. There should be no career politicians. A career politician has bought their job by laying in bed with lobbyists, and buying votes with the peoples own tax dollars.

Well, since you are evidently a career criminal, why not?  Think bigger, though--run as a Republican for public office.

http://www.politics1.com/tn.htm\n\nOkay, if you go the above link, you will find first, your candidates for US Senator.  Then below that you will find you candidates for US House of Representatives. That is under US Congress, district four.  I don't know how to tell you about you state and local candidates.

I agree with you 100%\n\nThere should be some way that a third party candidate could make a credible run for the White House.  The last person to run a successful campaign of this sort was Teddy Roosevelt !\n\nThe problem is money and support.  How can an independent candidate ever raise the huge sums of money necessary?  Who really wants to fund someone with a 0% perceived chance of winning?  In other words, who wants to throw their money away just to make a political statement?\n\nSupport is the second factor.  Even fluff movies like "Legally Blonde 2" give an indication how thoroughly corrupt Congress is.  You have to play the game and make deals with the devil.  It's all nauseating.\n\nSo, let me put the ball back in your court.  Can you think of a viable way to run a third party candidate?

I think joining the FBI would squash your dream of becoming a politician.  People would look at you as a former federal agent, and they would distrust you both as a bureaucrat and as a sort of "big brother" part of the government.

You'd be surprised.  Members of Congress spend lots of time in their district.  All of them maintain homes there, and (unlike Senators who run for reelection every six years) members of Congress are continually involved in permanent fundraising and community outreach in their districts.

Start contacting some of your local politicians: assembley members, state representatives, state senators, right up to your U.S. Congressional representative. THIS is one of the reasons they are there. They have connection in a lot of areas, and can get things done quickly for the right reasons. \nYou don't have to tell them what party you belong to or anything, just let them know you ARE a registered voter, and that you would greatly appreciate their support.  \nGood Luck!

On a mayoral level, sure. On a senate level, best wishes. Talk congress and higher though? Even if you were as honest as they come you'd be consumed and eliminated by the 99% that aren't.

yes, unfortunately, not all current and aspiring politicians can be accomodated into the  parliament. Remember that in past presidential elections, everybody including lunatics file their candidacy for president.

Write letters to all the legislators, get your friends involved, organize an event at the state/national capitol.\n\nTheses are a few ways to start

Get involved. I've written my congressmen and 2 senators every time they voted on legislation involved with the war to either show my approval or disdain. Make sure they hear your voice. Some may write you back, Some may not. Register to vote or, if you can't, get involved with candidates (no age limit to do this) and maybe even join a Young Republicans or Young Democrats group. Volunteer for a candidate. Just get involved. As much as possible.
