Are you really that narcissistic?
I'm that observant.
Why is it narcissistic to believe that you have the ability to change the world? Why is it narcissistic to have ambition?
I'm a 21 year old, charismatic physically attractive political activist with a comprehensive, well developed political philosophy. I have a resume that includes doing volunteer work during Katrina and cleaning the beaches during the oil spill with political volunteerism dating back to being 12 years old. I have worked 12 hour days in the Florida summer heat with construction workers, in hardhats and steel toe boots in Northwest Florida. I have worked temporary seasonal tourist jobs in a city whose revenue is determined by tourist season. My current job is in the service industry for $7.75 an hour. I am my constituency.
I also have been doing minor consulting work for a Congressman since I was 18. I work an asst. campaign manager to a 200,000 dollar campaign when I was 18. At age 21 I am working on a book on George Washington, Alexander Hamilton and Marquis de Lafayette having been granted access to letters written by Washington that have never before been used in an academic study (thanks to a family connection). Ive founded a libertarian community activist group that places a strong emphasis on community education. I am establishing a free community college that allows knowledgeable citizens in the community to volunteer time teaching classes at a local coffee shop (I teach philosophy, political science, economics and American history).
I'm also a college drop out in an area that has a majority of families without college degrees. I've taught myself the principals of Austrian economics, developed a comprehensive understanding of objectivism and have fully formed political platform that is a unique mixture of extremism and pragmatic politics. I can preach capitalism as the economic philosophy of individualism on college campuses while demonstrating how the Founding Fathers would favor drug legalization at Lions Club meetings. I can hold my grounds on all terrain amongst any demographic.
I've been privileged to have a wonderfully special father. I wasn't born rich, far-far from it (my father blew most of his cash on a failed effort to develop to Belize and other exorbitant projects), but I have always had connections and privileged company. In working for him I've exchanged personal emails with people like Karl Rove and Newt Gingrich. I've known Spencer Bachus of Alabama personally for years, when I was 18 I had a conversation with his Chief of Staff and had my opinion treated as a peer, not many individuals have had that experience. More important than these connections, however, is my father's knowledge. He was Communications Chairman for the RNC in 72 and was in charge of the National Republican Parties nationwide campaign strategy...the election following Watergate. (He was extremely successful.) My father was one of the RNC's most successful political consultants and literally wrote the party book for campaign strategy. He was dean of the Political Consultant RNC College.
And I've learned from all of that.
I am confident because I appreciate how much potential I hold have. I understand it and refuse to run from it. I can be a leader who can truly breach demographics. I can speak policy with greater comprehension than any politician in Northwest Florida, I'm young and thus exciting. My campaign would become a national story due to the lack of people like me in the GOP.
And if I can get Glenn Beck's TV show I can build influence in the most important political event in decades: the Tea Party movement.
When he was 22 Alexander Hamilton became the Chief of Staff of General George Washington.
That is the standard I set myself to rise to.
(See how I am able to slip in Founding Father trivia in a personal message? You don't think Glenn Beck would become my number 1 fan with that sort of knowledge coming out of a 23 year old politician?)
