How to Influence a Politician
1. Make yourself look and sound like a given politician, only significantly older. If you can't pull it off, find someone who can whom you trust. Let's call this person X.
2. Make sure that X knows a lot about the politician's history, just to be safe.
3. Optional: Dress X in a way that you imagine old people will dress in however many years. Otherwise, a standard business suit should do.
4. The hard part: Get your hands on an amazing invention that very few people know about yet. If necessary, invent it yourself.
5. Have X approach the politician in private, claiming to be his or her time-traveling future self. The little-known invention serves as "proof."
6. Have X advise the politician in whatever ways you wish, making up future disasters if he or she asks why.
