ASUCD Mock Elections!

[aggienaut]

   Ladies & gentlemen, no longer can you say ASUCD has done nothing for you!! I have recently learned that ASUCD is going to probably the most awesome thing they'll ever do -- have a fake election to run-through their software ... and I'm a candidate!!! (Other candidates include Darth Paul "thinks he's the Pope" Harms & Kyle "Kris has never heard of him" Flick)

   So of course, I made a FACEBOOK GROUP asap, which you should all join. Current information is:

Accomplishments / Qualifications:

Jedi Powers - The Senate on 03/10/05 determined Fricke to have dangerous jedi powers.

Reverend - really.

Survived three impeachment attempts - and various assassination attempts as well no doubt

Politically slaughtered countless enemies

Destroyed whole politcal parties that annoyed him

Is the real Pope of ASUCD*

Can speak Swedish!

ASUCD Chief Justice

Platform:

Judicial dictatorship in ASUCD!

Reinstall the ICBM in the campus Silo

Kittens in the MU Lounge!


*The ASUCD Papacy
   The thing with the title of Pope of ASUCD is, kind of like contending for the real office of the Pope, actually declaring yourself it (or a contender) is considered exceedingly bad form. As such, though I have been the undisputed ethical authority in ASUCD for years now, and have even issued judicial encyclicals and appointed secret legates to do my bidding, actually declaring my title would have made me unfit for it.
   Harms had declared himself the pope once already but he quickly found himself booted out of his ASUCD position, something I believe even he himself attributed to appearing far too ambitious. But now he's gone and made a second attempt, and thats just too much. Anyway, declaring himself first (and second) invalidates his claim, and forces me to show my hand to put a stop to this foolishness.
   So I'm Pope Kristov IIIVX of ASUCD. Yes thats wrong Roman numerals, but Kristov II didn't look as good. (There's already a Pope Christof I you see)

In other news I totally can't figure out why this text is avoiding the right of the screen. )=

HTML TABLE

Kris, the text is the way it is prolly cuz the picture is considered one cell, and the text on the left another cell...

but its not a table - the picture on the left is just [img src="" align=right], and usually it has no problem wrapping all around that. )=

Where will the antagonism go?

[durraniaur.livejournal.com]

If you get appointed to the mock senate who will fulfill the role of the Senate Antagonist?

Re: Where will the antagonism go?

[emosnail.livejournal.com]

I don't need to be elected to do that!

Though admittedly I think I'm getting old and uncantakerous -- actually been getting along with the Senate alarmingly well this quarter. Maybe my successor will bring the fire back

I think the reason you've been getting along with the Senate as of late is becuase there has been no cases recently where you had to be all like OMGSTFU, Stop being Stoopid!" I'm sure a couple cases like that will get the antagonism back up to its old levels.

That and they're all my puppets now. I mean what? O=)


I don't suppose you know where a bigger version of the dictator icon can be found? I couldd use it for campaigning purposes.

Re: Where will the antagonism go?

[cedyeus.livejournal.com]

The only one I know of was from the "Clinton declares himself El Presidente for live" article on the Onion a couple years back.

To do list

[emosnail.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think that is THE original. I'm too lazy to go lookin for it though d=

Thinking about also editing together a picture of "kittens in the MU Lounge" and/or making a picture look like there are giant posters of dictator me plastered across the front of the MU or some other prominant campus building.

You can be the President, I'd rather be the Pope.
You can be the Side-effect, I'd rather be the Dope.
I'd rather be the Pope.

And it looks like the Mock Election race is widening, with Jill Weinstein and Laabs.

[emosnail.livejournal.com]

And this girl Chantha Neung? So thats six people I know of. Laabs said they were aiming for 12 people, I hope they at least break six so there's some kind of challenge, and preferably at least nine. This is going to be max awesome, max.
