This has been my single biggest revelation as an adult... how few people are actually involved. It is now my new years resolution, every year, get more involved, to give back more.
Until last yer my wife and I were simply voters. Last year we got involved with the caucus in our local precinct from the very beginning. I'm glad we got involved but I must say I'm not a fan of having a caucus rather than primary elections. We will continue to be involved though.
I do like the fact that we are able to talk directly to many of the candidates.
