Your Camp is My Camp

Since Camp Reilly is complaining this blog is pro Camp Carmen I'd like to add a few lines about why each camp is retarded.

First, if it's one thing I've noticed listening to all of these candidates speak its that they love to take credit for shit they haven't done. The audience may not know any better while you're speaking, but you're pissing people off and they are letting students know afterwards.

Second, stop making blanket promisses to students about decisions that aren't even made by the President or VP. Students don't need to know every detail, but you're not going to put in the blue lights by yourself. Tell students why you have the ability to work with others to get your ideas accomplished. Otherwise, it sounds like you don't know shit about how the system works.

Lastly, nobody has shown why their team of candidates is going to represent students better than any of the others. Tickets have the potential to make a positive difference within ASUN, but they mean jack if there is no reasoning behind them. Bring together a team of students with different skills and tell students the varying strengths of each member.

There are two things that candidates need to show students:
1. You have good ideas that resonate
2. You have the ability and means to get them done

Aside from the fact that the elections rules aren't being followed by ANYONE including the Elections staff, the campaigns are barely scratching the surface on what they need to show students.
