thanks for the reply, politics is definitely an interesting subject for me. I have a political blog, I could probably name all 100 senators off the top of my head because I keep up with the news, etc. I don’t think the internship itself is going to get me in anywhere, but it could help start a ladder to something that could get me in to top colleges, something my dad is probably too shortsighted and impatient to see. You are right about the menial work: phone calls and mailers are insufferable. However, it feels really rewarding the times I do get a big project to do because of good work on the makework.
