How do I become a Congressman? I'm a 26 year old paralegal.

Be rich. Suck rich old white man dick. Praise the free market and Jesus all the time. Preferably combine them into "Jesus would approve free market."

run for office and win, obviously.

>paralegal

glorified secretary

Use all your free time working for your local campaining center.
Learn the game
Eventually get paid for campaining
One day enough people will own you enough favors and you ill have made enough friends and then, just then, you MIGHT have a shot, but beware of this, because it could happen at your 30s or at your 50s.

it could be a hell of a ride or a soul crushing path.

Sadly, this is true.

You could be the perfect guy or gal with the greatest ideas. But to get into positions of power you need to play the game and kiss the right ass.

So say you, you want to change the world for the better. You want to get into politics. You need money to do so. So a corporation raises money for you to run, and you win. That's pretty much a bribe. They own you a little, but you do it anyway because you still think you can change things, you just have to look out for your donors a little. But then you realize that no one else works with you unless you work with them, so you find yourself betraying your ideals just a little bit more in order to push them forth. Just working with others.

After a while you want to make a stand, and tell the common people what you stand for. The media ignores you completely because the media is owned by the same corporations that own your rival candidate. So he wins with his smooth talking lies, and there you are standing with something you actually wanted to say. Ignored, and forgotten.

You have to be bought and paid for by Wall Street.

Unkess you want to run as an independent, first you need to secure the nomination of a major political party.

Frankly, I'm going to stop it here. I'm not going to hold your God damn hand. You can find this information on your own, but suffice to say it will involve either engaging your local community directly or working reliably to support candidates running for office in your party to build connections. If you think a thread on /adv/ is going to get it done then you are severely mistaken.

Why would you want to become a congressman?
Do you like sitting on your ass doing nothing while being despised by the american public?

>>16823179
At least he/she can take a nice bath in dollars afterwards. It's relaxing I heard.

>>16823181
No, you only get to bathe in dollars if you're corrupt or already rich.

>>16823167
It's just one fag with multiple trips and too much time (and semen) on his hands.

Be nice if the mods mods would do something about him.

Holy kek! Where did Pegasus touch you?

Not him, but fine, TECHNICALLY you're a namefag. Big fucking deal. You might as well just throw on a trip. It won't make you any less retarded.

I was born in this, molded by it

Go out and buy a table, then pull your pants down and bend over the table. Every rich person on the United States must rape you in the ass repeatedly before you can become a politician. Once you've sucked all the corporate dicks, and taken all the corporate dicks up your asshole, you can become a politician.
