I haven't met that many campaign managers and the ones I have met work on local races. It's freelance work and the possibility of future employment rests on how the candidate does. So the first thing a campaign manager has to do (before accepting the job) is to determine how committed the candidate is to make the effort to win the race. I don't believe that any reputable campaign would want to work for Trump, mostly because of dealing with Trump's personality. Making it a task on Celebrity Apprentice would just show that the candidacy is not real. I don't see using Apprentice contestants to open field offices either because it means having the contestants in different cities, which is a budget buster, and it's too difficult to come up with metrics to measure their performance. -- TV or Not TV ....
