"This do‐it-yourself kit for aspiring amateurs who want to become professionals gives the formula—volunteer and work. What you have to do, the two authors say, is to start at the bottom at the precinct level, by doing the chores—stuffing envelopes, making up lists, typing, answering the phones, making calls. Both parties need workers who are willing, able, cheerful, resourceful and intelligent. You don't have to be a lawyer or rich, although it helps. For men and women with ambition and foresight wild are willing to work, the United States Senate may be in the offing, according to Mr. Safire and Mr. Loeb" (Harold Faber, The New York Times).
