I did Politics and Government at college, my Tutor told me it was an easy A’ Level to get in half the the time (1 YR instead of 2 YR), it was cool, although I studied Chemistry at University, I remember those lectures more than most. It’s a shame you can’t get more from it tho.!!!!

Sure. You can work as a campaign manager for a State Representative candidate or something along those lines.

Win. And then have a track record to move to a Congressional campaign.

Win. And then establish a career as a professional campaign manager.

Problem is: How do you win?

Not much.

You need to be an Attorney to have a shot at the kinds of jobs that you are talking about.

People with Political Science Degrees are a dime a dozen.

If you are serious about pursuing a career in Politics you need to go to law school, get your law degree and pass the State Bar exam.
