Having gathered a bit of notoriety in this game, I often get people reach out to me asking me to take up their cause or "use my influence to gain access to powerful person X". They just don't "get it" that we're all individuals with limited capability and capacity to act. Offloading your cargo of hopes for a better world onto other people doesn't work; you have to take up your own power and steer your own ship.
It's a bit like “Don’t ask what JFK's return can do for you. Ask what you can do for JFK when he's back” — if you're sitting around waiting for a rescuer or icon to do the job, you've missed the whole point about returning power to the people and we have to take on more responsibility and involvement at a local level. If one problem is currently intractable, go solve another instead!

The weaker-minded always look for a stronger person to follow.
Independent, pioneering spirit has almost been bred out of the average American, it seems.
Glad most of the folks in the South don't think that way.
If you want to contact someone, WRITE to their website & don't stop until you get an answer!
I've done this... It works.

Me too!
I even comment on the article they've written, once long time ago it was from the Hill - "Our Town" Thomas Sowell was talking about the Boom & Bust of the housing market and we got into a dialogue ... he kindly, autographed and sent me his book, "The Housing Boom and Bust".
Really impressed me that he even listened to me, then I asked him to run for office, said no, felt he was too old to deal with the swamp.

Very smart man, w/ a good sense of humor.
I also liked Walter Williams, Walter E. Williams, (born March 31, 1936) is an American economist, commentator, and academic. He is the John M. Olin Distinguished Professor of Economics at George Mason University, as well as a syndicated columnist and author known as a libertarian ...
... however I thought more of a conservative by today's measure.
He would raise eyebrows of the leftists, but they didn't dare fire him. LOL
