Making Money off Presidential Elections

[foadi]

2016 looks like it will be a blockbuster year as far as campaign finance goes. Billions will be spent to sway a few thousand people in a select few states. Just wondering if any of ya'll have any ideas on how to get some of that moniez? In the past I have mostly done small time stuff during the lead up to federal elections (voter outreach for GOP during midterms, selling political merchandise on the rally trail during presidentials, etc) but I would like to step it up a notch next year. Every election cycle we see new companies get six or seven figure contracts to essentially do nothing. I've worked on enough campaigns to know that there is almost no oversight and the vast majority of the money is either wasted or ends up with the top people. So what do you guise think? What's the best way to get some of the Koch brothers millions they're going to blow?

Yeah, did lots of campaigns in college. For a student, the money I made was alright, but if it's a career, it's some real top down shit. The senior staff make close to 6 figures for the cycle, the top consultant makes way more, the midlevel people make like 2500 a month or less, and the junior people are lucky for a meager stipend, with much of the work done by unpaid interns.

On an individual level it seems difficult to make more than peanuts doing field work.Feel like you'd have to start a company or something,

The best racket for a side income seemed to be the guys who were highly influential in a niche demographic (orthodox Jews for example) and could just charge a nice monthly consulting fee to do absolutely nothing but their blessing would get a candidate the votes in those communities. Straight up gangster shit. But that's really local elections. Don't know if there's an equivalent for president.

Newspapers, Radio and Television will get a good piece of it. The people who import the Chinese made yard signs will get a portion. Of course, afterward the moving truck companies will make a small fortune moving all the old politicians out and the new ones in.

Send a resume to both of the Koch brothers. Keep your Mexi background on the down-low though.
