This sounds like a set up. When things go south, you'll take the blames.

Because politics isn't easy and the higher you go the more it requires in time and money. My new home state has yet to elect a governor who isn't white and male despite being relatively liberal after 146 years. The current governor is gay but very rich ($400 million) and can self finance. Further the most consequential legislation is at the state level. If you want influence, you have to control the state, county and city legislatures and the school boards.
