Alexander Payne, Jim Taylor - Election - Campaign Promises lyrics

Poet Henry David Thoreau once wrote, 'I cannot make my days longer, so I strive to make them better.' With this election, we here at Carver also have an opportunity to make our high school days better. During this campaign, I have spoken with many of you about your many concerns. I spoke with Eliza Ramirez, a freshman, who said she feels alienated from her own homeroom. I spoke with soph*more Reggie Banks who said his mother works in the cafeteria and can't afford to buy him enough spiral notebooks for his cla**es... I care about Carver and I care about each and every one of you, and together we can all make a difference. When you cast your vote for Tracy Flick next week, you won't just be voting for me. You'll be voting for yourself and for every other student here at Carver. Our days might not be any longer, but they can sure be better. Thank you.
