Hey, guys. I know we don’t talk much and that’s kind of on me. I’ll own it.
But hey, look. I’m not sure how to tell you this, but someone has to, so it might as well be me.
You’re. Doing. It. Wrong.
While I am far from being a Sweet Potato Hitler fan (thanks Titus!), he knows how to work the system. And you guys just don’t. You don’t need advertising bucks anymore, so stop trying to pick my pocket. You don’t need to race around being outrageous to score media attention or sound bytes or photo ops. Screw all that.. that’s the old way, the way that should be dead and buried, except you are all being blind and propping it up.
Stop. It.
Most of you are already in a position of power…. to get things done. Instead, how much of that power are you squandering by running around and doing the wrong things to try and work the system.
From what I see, kind of all of you. Shame! Shame! Shame!
Let me be clear. As a voter, I don’t give a damn what you’ve done. I don’t give a damn who you are. I don’t give a damn what you think you’ll try real hard to do if I elect you.
I care about the job you’re doing now.
If there was a single candidate that shut up, sat down, and got to work, then every week put out on social media exactly what they’d accomplished, I’d know that candidate was focused on the task at hand, and not on contributing to the noise.
Do the job you have well, and you’ll earn the job you want. You have the ability to speak directly to the voters, and you don’t need Old Media to do it.
If you do it right, Old Media will chase you.
Stop the noise. Start the work.
Do that, and you got my vote.
