 I often think of running for county Sheriff.  
 You ser, need to watch a documentary on Hunter S. Thompson. He did just this and nearly one.

He ran on the freak power ticket in Aspen, Colorado in 1968 or so. 
 It seems very relevant given current state of American society to have a freedom oriented Sheriff nearby.  
 Better to infiltrate positions of power to be the change you want to see 🫡 
 No infilitration. Full frontal assault and let the community choose you over parasitic boomer class (current sheriff has bden sheriff for a LONG time) 
 I'd vote for you once if I was local and twice if I was a democrat
