Upgoat - "where a goat can be a goat"

The answer to all this fuckery is if you guys start running for Congress. It's the one office where you can personally go around and knock on enough doors and windows in your district and make a difference to actually get elected instead of the hand-picked guy from one of the different parties.

You can literally go around to your neighborhoods and say you're somebody who's never been in politics you're not associated with anybody in politics you're a regular average guy and you believe that Congress is better run by people that are really just a random pic of individuals like yourself rather than people that the parties themselves pick. And you could go around and say this and I think you could make enough difference to actually beat the hand-picked representative for your district. I don't think that was possible a couple of years ago but I think it's possible now because everybody knows that the handpick people with a Republican or Democrat are probably evil and probably corrupted and probably blackmailed and are just not going to do the job and they'd be willing to take a chance at the Congressional level on just a normal average joe.

All these other ideas people have about how they're going to solve the problem and voting doesn't matter in all this other stuff but if the congressional district level it is still possible for a regular person to knock on enough doors in their neighborhood to win because especially in off years not that many people vote. They just don't. And you don't need a lot of money because if you've gone to the door once and you saw the people once and you left them a little card with maybe you're black and white picture on them and just said to remember to vote for me in in the voting booth but you actually don't need a lot of money you don't need tv ads and I don't know that you need any roadside ads any of those placard things. Because one in person meeting with people is going to make a lot more of a difference. And you can just say you don't have to agree with me on all different political principles and positions but just elect me because I'm a normal average guy who's never been in politics and therefore you know that I'm not corrupt and I'm probably not blackmailed because right now that's the most important thing far and away aside from the different political positions that people swear they have and then they go into office and they don't vote for them anyway.

I think if somebody asks you what party you're with you say I'm not with any party and that's why you should vote for me say I'm just a normal person who sees we're all getting screwed and I'm going to do the common sense thing which I get when I get in there and I'm a vote for the common sense thing and I'm not going to be beholden to any party politics or any party funding or anything else and I'm actually going to be the guy that Congress was intended to have in it. Just a normal regular person who's in the government. And vote for me because what do you have to lose because the Republicans and Democrats have cheated you and they've never done what they said they were going to do anyway. So use the Trump line what do you have to lose? If somebody came around and knocked on my door and did that and I could look them up and see that they were an average Joe with a very average job and absolutely no history of politics at all then I would absolutely just write them the f*** in if they couldn't get on the ballot. And you know if you don't raise money and you don't do a lot of that of the stuff then there's not a whole lot of legality to all this stuff did you have to follow. I think you really start getting into trouble when you start raising money so I think unless you're going to be willing to pay somebody to raise the money and do all the reporting then you just say you know you're not accepting any money that you're not knocking on doors. That alone might really impress people as well. You have to make sure you don't accept money because if you accept $1 and you don't report it then if that the other side finds out about it you'll be harassed and it'll be over and it won't work. Anyway I don't know the law about all that stuff I'm not a lawyer but it just seems to me that a whole lot of people would be willing to vote for a normal average Joe who went around and did that and then be happy to do that.
