Political Science Research Assistant

I am hoping to find one or two of you might be motivated to work with me on ideas related to the national crisis created by Trump.
   > Over the summer and possibly more
   > action and analysis relating to the challenge of our new three party system, with an emphasis on how to confront authoritarianism
   > $20/hour, from 12 to 40 hours per week

Skills: email, word, excel, internet research
   >You control your hours
   > You pick your topic within a range that includes the national campaign, the local campaign, the MAGA Trials database, the All Interests Coalition for a national movement, the briefing database for trained progressives to talk to swing Republicans, working with Indivisibles, and thinking about post-impeachment politics as it could influence impeachment.

   You would be doing both objective political science and advocating for the Constitution, freedom, and democracy. There is a widespread misperception that to recommend some political action, you must be biased or partisan. Should political science only be objective, like cosmology, with no ideas about how to improve the heavens (society)? Or should it be like health science, with objective science used to promote health (a healthy polity)?
