Local voting is how you get change in general to happen. The federal government is setup to resist change. The local governments aren't. If you want a young Presidential candidate in a decade or two, find a 20-25 year old you trust to be mayor now, and then either a state level senator, or governor.
Democrats are useless on purpose and intend to always be.
I hope Unions do the good that Democrats refuse to.
I'm not disagreeing. It just doesn't add to the point in my opinion. We are talking about now, and local governments (in my anecdotal experience) are in no way as old as recent national politicians.
