Politics Starts With A Business Card

My race for U.S. Congress officially started yesterday. I (along with my wife) am a precinct committeeman. I think we ran unopposed. And in this day of communications, we were notified by email. Wonder if JFK was notified by email when his political campaign was launched?

I asked my wife if I get a badge and a gun. She said, no, just a business card. I at least was hoping for a badge; she informed me I was not the sheriff.
