Its your forum. You don't need to apologize for hijacking. And neither do I. Welcome back.

I've worked a few non profits in government affairs and left my most recent job because it was far more admin then what I was looking to do.

So now I'm a 27 year old with a BA degree in Communications pretty much "starting over". I have been dabbling with the idea of doing campaign work for the 08 election but I've heard a lot of negative experiences from various people. Plus the fact that if I went that route I would just end up starting over again most likely after the elections.

To wrap it up, any political career advice for me? Where should I be looking? [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

The Iliad and the Odyssey. My reasoning is that it would be futile to try to get people to really understand something through two books. What you're more likely to get is a bunch of people who think they know everything, but really only understand a small corner of whatever subject the books are on. So, might as well get them started on understanding Western literature.

Last time someone asked a similar question, I suggested "think-tank" and he liked it. So I'm gonna go with think-tank.

I'd be tempted to ban an anarchist whom I dislike, but that would be petty. I think I'd probably ban someone awesome like Andyfox or DVaut1 to teach an object lesson about the folly of entrusting arbitrary power to the hands of one man.
