6. Why doesn't he just run for something? I never understand this

if he wants to serve, why doesn't he just do it?

You know, Jerry Brown was Governor. He ran for President. Then he found smaller positions to fill so he could just serve the people. He didn't whine, he just did.
A mayor job here, a AG job there.

So why doesn't Weiner just take a position somewhere?
to serve is what is important, the title is not.

He already could have run for assembly or fill out some position or other, then run for the house again, or something else.

Same with Spitzer

Run for the election board.

Move to VA and run there.
Being that his wife is most likely going to do something in Hillary's administration in 2017, find a small position and by then work his way back up.

After all, in 2014, there are only a few dozen seats we need to win that are currently red, you mean there is not one somewhere he could fill, and win?

Surely there is some place he could win something at.

Nothing is stopping him, should he actually want to serve the people and act like a good adult
and not a spoiled brat teen.
