fandomhigh | FANDOM HIGH STUDENT COUNCIL DEBATES

Good evening from the Fandom High auditorium. I'm CJ Cregg and I'll be moderating the Student Council debates.

Our Format tonight will be as follows:
Students and teachers alike will ask questions of the candidates. [Please submit your questions to the moderator via the appropriate thread] Each candidate
will respond to the question in turn, and I will call on each for their response.

After each candidate has gone, any one may request a further rebuttal to address
a point made by an opponent, the granting of which is at my discretion. The press will have full access and are also encouraged to
contribute questions.

In the case of no opponent, the same format will
apply, although the rebuttals will be unnecessary for obvious reasons.

I ask that anyone who wishes to be a write in candidate remain in the audience, and feel free to question their opponent...making clear the potential as a candidate. All responses, please be concise. This is a venue to discuss qualifications, not to sling mud. Let's have a nice clean debate. Let's go gang.

Thank you. Now, another from the audience.

We hear a lot of talk about diversity, but what about action? What have you actually done to reach out to the different kinds of students in this school and what will you do if you get elected?

"That is an excellent question. As many of you know, I'm seen as a bit of a loner here at Fandom High. Such a perception couldn't be further from the truth! I am constantly engaging with my fellow students, watching out for ~~spies~~ their needs. As President of a diverse Fandom High Student Council, I would encourage activities that would broaden the horizons of the student body, and make each being, be they human, vampire, demon, alien, or undefined feel welcome to share with one another."

Very good, Mr. Six. Now, if you please,

*clears her throat and attempts the accent*
Ye be talkin' about how wonderful all yer ideas are. Give us three things about why yer opponent be not Satan.

"Why opponent is not..." Number 6 peers at Ms. Cregg. "Ah. Mr. Malfo has brought a wonderful artistic talent to the race. His ideas of non-partisanship are fair -- ideas should come from all sides. Ms. Halliwell is a lovely woman, from what I can tell, and works hard as a journalistic assistant. As you know, I find the truth to be very important, and so I salute her in that. Furthermore, both of my opponents are fine, upstanding members of the Fandom High student body, and I would be happy to work with them no matter what the outcome of the election."

Veru good, Mr. Six. What level of responsibility and accountability do you feel your position will owe to both the student body and to the administration?

"The President should be responsible for the well-being of the student body as a political body. That is to say, he should fight every day to ensure their safety and freedom ~~from the tyranny of the administration.~~ Every student has basic rights as a free person, and I see it as my duty to make sure the Student Council hold the administration responsible for upholding those rights."

"As for the administration, ~~fie~~ as President, I would personally ensure that their grand designs for us are met with the enthusiasm they deserve."

*Nods* Thank you.

Should some horrifying cafeteria concoction cause ye to exaggerate yer most annoyin' characteristic, what would ye be doing?

"I suspect that I would be very afraid for the minds and hearts of my fellow students. I would not wish them to come to harm. It is my greatest fear that my friends in the student body do not think with their own thoughts."

How do you feel about Barry Manilow? Kenny G? That one annoying white-boy band who think's they're reggae and ruins perfectly good Cure songs?

"Frankly, madame, they aren't worth they vinyl they are printed upon. I prefer Vivaldi, Bach, Beethoven, and Chopin."

How do you propose to solve the problem of the cafeteria food attacking students?

6 chuckles dryly. "I suppose we should open communication and determine its needs. As a sentient creature, it deserves the rights and freedoms of anyone at Fandom High. Unless it refuses to cease its attacks. Then we attack with Baking Powder."
