An announcement(about me)

[Gamefreak]

In 2009, I will be running for my city's City Council.  

I'll be using 2008 as a planning year to gather information, raise funds, and other political what-not for my campaign.

My first goal is to establish a base of support in the Juniors, Seniors, and teachers at my school to convince them that I'm electable.

I might also have the American Legion vote handy, since I'm on very good terms with them politically and personally.

Wait, wait, wait... What about College? I think running on a city council and being at college can get... err... iffy.

[Hi no Seijin]

Considering that this is in the General Discussion board, there's a very good chance that you're serious.  But then again, in 2009, you should be around 19, 20 years old, and that seems a bit young to be running for a public office.

Gah!  Should I be joking around or should I be serious?! D:

[Gamefreak]

You can joke around or be serious if you want.  I'm serious.  I know that much.

We just had a local 18 year old win President of the School Board in a neighboring city.

[JDog]

Oh, well, I could never do stuff like that because I am not that organized but either way, that sounds pretty cool.

[Commodore Axilon]

Yeah, like we need more Republicans in politics. :P

But, yeah, good luck, I suppose. Though a city councilman without a college degree is unheard of!

[JDog]

That my friend is another reason why he is gamefreak. lol

[MagmarFire]

Good luck, Gamefreak! And when you win, I hope you don't forget about us!!!! ;)

[JDog]

Yea, you better not be like jack and leave us.

[Gamefreak]

Don't accuse Jack of anything.  I'm sure his reasons were good.  Anyways, don't think badly of him.

[JDog]

I wasn't accusing him, I was just sayin don't do what he did and leave us, I know he had a reason, but yea, don't leave us, if we're still around by then, which I am sure we will be.

[Zoratunic]

Dude, that's awesome! Hope you do well!

[Hi no Seijin]

I wasn't accusing him, I was just sayin don't do what he did and leave us, I know he had a reason, but yea, don't leave us, if we're still around by then, which I am sure we will be.

Don't even ask Gamefreak not to leave.  If his life becomes so busy that he can longer visit TDC, then it's going to happen, whether he (or you or anyone else) likes it or not.  It may be sad, but what do you expect?  If he gets elected, he's going to be entering a public office, and his job is going to have to take priority.

[JDog]

yea, but I hope he doesn't get to busy to where he leaves.

[Gamefreak]

Well, reading up on the position(which I should have done in the first place), meeting only take place twice a month at 8:00 pm.  So, as far as I know, it won't eat up to much time.
