Thank you for your thoughts, as I know that you are (were?) in law school and I've read some of your posts about your experiences there. To answer your basic question-- no, that's not the only reason I'm going to law school. The post here was me being fairly facetious. The reasons are several, the primary one of the moment being that I love my law class right now and love the stuff we're studying. But as I'm a fairly politically minded person, and intend to be active to some degree for the rest of my life, I see no reason not to make use of what I learn from law school to that end, nor do I think it's stupid to do so. In fact, I think that to have strong political opinions and to not make use of all the tools you have to work toward what you want, especially if one of those tools is a legal education, is a waste of the advantages and utilities you have.
