I know it sounds cheesey, but I really love America, I love Texas, and I care about what happens in them. (Yes, school finance is screwed up here, and no, I don't have a solution for it, or even an idea about what a solution would be.)
From an early age, I really liked history. In high school, I went to Washington to work as a congressional page, and was fascinated and loved it. However, politics aren't an easy way to make money, and not many politicians have political science degrees, just those who work for them. So I went to law school, worked for awhile, and became jaded. I still have dreams of running for office one day, but not for a long while.
