Yeah, I thought it was a pretty interesting point considering how Jimmy reflects on Derby after taking over the Preppies by saying that he would likely end up in Congress with his kind of money. I see what you're saying though, Derby would likely continue his family's machinations but actually take it a step further by trying to get politicians in his pocket.

Also, I figured the state's districts would be redrawn by the time he reached the minimum age to run for Congress and Huffman would lose Bullworth with that, but gain another town he could easily win over. However, Bill would likely lose a colleague since he had declined in popularity with the town due to the fact that he cared less and less for it as the years went by. There's more about Bill's plans to keep himself in power for as long as he wants I want to get into, but that's for another time.

In the sense of real-world politics, it's unfortunate lobbyist groups can influence politicians to turn a blind eye to obvious problems. When I was saying that message a couple days ago that I was getting into things I want to be a part of, I was referencing how I joined a campaign recently. I'm sort of a "Community Director" for this congressional candidate's campaign and also a delegate for a gubernatorial candidate (the gubernatorial candidate is the same state senator I talked about). It's pretty exciting, but I'm doing it to do something about what I want to see a change in.
