After all, you have some of the same attributes as folks like Ben Quintana — though not necessarily all of them (visionary, passionate, dedicated, dynamic, enthusiastic, determined, innovative). You have widespread name recognition. You know where the problems of government exist and exactly how to solve them. You’re at a point in life where you could retire, live off the added income of a Council seat, and dedicate yourself to making things right. And undoubtedly the average folks on the street who compose much of your readership would gladly chip in to create the “war chest” necessary to run a grass roots campaign. As the old saying goes — “put up or … find someone else who can!” Think about it.
