Quote:Serving in Congress, like serving in the military, is a job. Should being a doctor not be a life-long career? Why should that be different? Or would you rather be represented by people like me or you; many seem to think anyone can just walk in off the street and be a good Congressman/woman. But people want to complain that "those politicians" don't know what they are doing.

 

Feel free to run against Corrine Brown any time. I'm sure you know what's best for the people in her district.

 

Any specific reason you mentioned Brown but not Ander Crenshaw? 

 

Serving in Congress and serving in the military is like comparing apples to oranges as far as I'm concerned (by the way that you describe it).  While yes, in the military you are given a "job", but you are also serving your country by performing your duties as directed by people above you.  There are also limits regarding how long one can serve in the military, and you are not elected to serve, you are under contract to serve.

 

I want to be represented by someone who is qualified to perform the duties of their office.  Background, education and experience are important factors for me when selecting who I would vote for.

 

As far as running against Corrine "go gata" Brown, I have no desire to enter the world of politics, though I do think that even I can do a better job than she has/does.

 

I mentioned Corrine "go gata" Brown because I happen to live in her district.

 

Any other questions?
