What are you doing Eli Reilly?

A source of significant confusion for me has been why Eli Reilly would put Jeremiah Todd on his "ticket." Todd, while being a great Greek leader, hasn't shown much desire or initiative within ASUN (not that I can blame him).


This is nearly completely opposite of Eli, who has thrown himself completely into making ASUN better. Eli was a great chair with great ideas on last years Flipside and this year he is doing a fantastic job of keeping great programs going and a decent job of finding some new ones (Howl at the Moon, the Speakers Series).


Todd has shown a propensity to not give a flying fuck what is going on in ASUN (again, not that I can blame him), which means he probably won't have the drive to be a good VP. The VP is such an open ended position with no real obligation laid upon. Therefore, a VP with initiative could really accomplish some shit. Todd is not the man for the job.


On a complete tangent, neither is Michael Cabrera. I'm really tired of hearing diversity repeated every five minutes. We all get it; you're gay and like minority issues. How about you start doing something about diversity and stop paying it lip service (more to come on this)?

Im pretty sure that Michael does not just pay diversity lip service. Maybe somebody should do their reserach and see what he HAS done!

What is Eli going to do in the general election when he has big signs all around campus with a guy's name on it that got knocked out in the primary???

Eli wanted the extra money that comes with running with another candidate. Eli's signs are impressive, especially compared to Carmen's - special thanks to the Justin Joe for VP of Programming '07 campaign.

Still, come March 7th, Eli will have a loser on his signs - while Carmen will have at least painted over one.
