Jalonnie’s Advice
I've learned that everybody feels that you can be too young in order to run for office. But at the end of the day, a lot of these people that have been running for office, their ages don't really mean nothing. Because you could just be alive for a lot longer and be wrong for just as long. Just do your own research and do your best to try to help out everybody that you can. Just give them a little bit of time because I know it took me a minute to finally get my head straight being a former Democrat and gang member.
