I ran for my party's nomination for the House of Representatives in 1988. I was hoping to restore the social contract which once existed between citizen and representative. Ten years later I ran for my party's nomination for a seat in our State's Assembly. I lost both contests.

No. Have given it some thought. But with a different accent in Australia, don't know how that would go down. Probably like a lead balloon.

No, but I was asked to run on several occasions
for a city council seat, once by the mayor.

No. The closest I came was being an election judge a few years ago.

No, but I did help on campaigns in my time. I was hoping to get better reprsentation for city, country.

You have got to be kidding me?
If I ever did try, I'd be put in the deepest part of the CIA jail.
