"You don't run for office as a 25-year-old because it is your next step in your career or it is the thing you've been planning for since you were a kindergartener or a college president," Litman said."You run because there is a problem that is so fiercely driving you that you can't imagine doing anything else with your time," she added.
"I think some of these more progressive candidates are just a reflection of the system that exists and it's the exact system I'm trying to fight against," she said. "We come to the negotiating table not already at the compromise, which is usually what Democrats tend to do," Frost said."I think this is part of the reason why the Republican Party has these long-term plans that a lot of times come to fruition," he added.
