Have any forum members held office in RL?

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

I was a voluntern (TM) on a campaign for Congress last year (we lost by a fair but not bad margin) and later helped that campaign's field operations director manage a campaign for Mayor of a nearby city with a population of over 60,000 people. I had an unofficial title of Deputy Campaign Manager as kind of a joke, mainly because the staff consisted of the manager, myself, and in the last week or so a former intern from the Broward County Obama Campaign. Needless to say, since Broward County was going for Obama anyway, the girl didn't bring much experience to the table.

Oh, I was class manager for a week in first grade, but we get selected to serve in alphabetical order and can be recalled at the teachers pleasure if we misbehave. But I got to bang a gavel when the class got loud.
