Running for Speaker of the House at school.

<p>So we have a mock congress for all the seniors at our school, and I want to run for Speaker.</p>

<p>However, there are also 3 other candidates far more popular than I am...</p>

<p>What to do/ any good campaign slogans since people start campaigning and putting up posters soon.</p>

<p>shameless bump</p>

<p>Go out and talk to lots of people, smile and ask them if they’ll vote for you. You have a while, right?</p>

<p>It’s this Thursday. Nominations were counted today. Had to wait for confirmation that I was on ballot before I went about campaigning.</p>

<p>posters everywhere, esp. of you looking flirty and stuff.</p>

<p>put them in classrooms of teachers who like you. Bored students will see them and vote.</p>

<p>It happened in my school (albeit it was much smaller, and the non-popular seemed to have wanted revenge against the drug abusing jocks that have since become not popular at all. School is like a Marxian society)!</p>

<p>cool. I only have white paper with black ink. </p>

<p>But I must admit, some of my posters are pretty awesome with iconic figures/quotes twisted to support me.</p>

<p>Ha ha, the candidates are all making facebook groups now.</p>

<p>Have someone else make the facebook group so it doesn’t seem like you’re self-promoting lol</p>

<p>Ehh too late. All the other candidates made the group themselves.</p>

<p>Lol, these things are tricky. No matter who you are, you just have to make the most dramatic speech you POSSIBLY can. I was running for student council vice president as a junior. I was the sensitive bookish Asian kid. My opponent was a senior, football jock pimp extrodinaire. My facebook group had 67 members. His had 455. Here’s how I won (yes, I did win).</p>

<p>I parodied Martin Luther King Jr. in my speech while combining elements from Barack Obama, Voltaire, etc, etc. “I came to America from china in a barren blizzard. The first thing I saw through the snow was the Statue of liberty. It symbolized everything this country had to offer. Although I’ve only been at my high school for a short time, the teachers have become my friends and the students my family! Let freedom ring from the darkest depths of sunshine hallway… Let Freedom Ring!!!” etc etc etc. </p>

<p>Plz don’t copy from my speech lolz, make your own haha, it’s easy enough. Try to use that stark prowess and be a debonair gentleman of intellectual superiority and you’ll pwn your jejune, hedonistic, “popular” opponents haha.</p>

<p>Also, if worst comes to worst and there’s seemingly nothing you can do to win, another idea is to make an epic video and air it in the school (if the administration allows you to do so). Use EPIC, heroic music. Consider looking up the following songs:</p>

<p>Prolog Auf Erden- Equillibrium
Sanctitatis- Future of Forestry
Navras- Juno Reactor
Epic Orchestra- Rig
Touched- VAST
Chariots of Fire- Vangelis
Wake- Brightwood</p>

<p>Trust me, you’ll be sure to find something you can use, just make an epic video. If you make it epic to the point of foolishness and people laugh after seeing it, you know it’s gonna work if it stands out. And better still, people are going to be laughing at the sheer bathos of your opponents, simply because they can’t stand up to your crazy charm. If worst comes to worst, make the video, it’ll turn things around like Washington crossing the delaware river did the american revolution. So go for it and take your best shot!</p>
