Enlisted
enlisted as I understand is used for the army- I can translate it like she "raised him to her lines"?
"She enlisted John Hart, a veteran of Bill’s 1992 campaign, to analyze the logistics of a late entry"
On the book I remembered this phrase as well that talking about "raising people for supporting"
What is the diffrence between the both?
"kids and other first-time caucus-goers they had been recruiting like mad"
"She enlisted John Hart, a veteran of Bill’s 1992 campaign, to analyze the logistics of a late entry"

Hello Flowersea. The primary definition of enlist is: To enroll or be enrolled in the armed services. But the secondary definition is : To engage (a person or their help or support) : Example: The company enlisted the help of independent consultants.
