I have been interested in politics for a long time and moreso recently. I think there are a lot of people like me out there - we are interested but don't know what to do. It is intimidating to start and it would be a lot easier for me to move past e-mailing my representatives to more involved participation if I had a little help.
One idea I have is the based on AA - what if I had a sponsor? What if I had a person in my city who knew more about the system than I did, that knew how to talk to people about politics, who could answer my questions and who could talk me through my self-doubt?
I live in Minneapolis - is anyone interested in being my sponsor? I could help, I'm just not sure how and I am having a hard time figuring out what is next.
I know there are people all over the nation who feel the same way I do. What do people think of a progressive sponsorship program?
Feedback is appreciated.
