@Wanderer- Thanks for the advice, and surprisingly enough, I'm a very good public speaker. I am on the debate team at my high school, and that's really helped me out. Thanks!
@ViceVirtue- I think I have the intelligence required to be a leader, and I think I'd be able to get things done, but I don't think I have the charisma to "inspire the masses"... or naturally gain followers. In order to become a leader, you need to inspire the masses with a political campaign.
@Michael- I will pick up that book. True, many politicians have gotten into office, but I think it would still be good to work on my leadership skills. I'm planning to run for a position as an officer in several of the clubs at my HS, so that will get me some experience.
@RT Wolf- I will pick up that book as well... looking forward to your replies.
Thanks to all, appreciate the help. Keep coming with advice if you have it, it's MUCH appreciated.
