[quote=Edward Warren]Ladies and Gentlemen, we are faced a difficult dilemma in this election. All of us can agree, we must pick the candidate who can do the most good for London. But we must also pick the one who can bring about the changes that will last the LONGEST.
As sad as it is to admit, Our Fair City has fallen far from the greatness of old, and I don’t just mean figuratively. Crime, poverty, and the moral degradation of society are all crucial issues to tackle. However, consider this: for all the power the Mayor of London holds, he/she will only be in office for a year. Should we not approach this dilemma in a sensible way, reforming our city will prove a Sisyphean task, one that can never be completed.
The Campaigner and the Detective both face uphill struggles, facing a myriad of organizations and institutions who will no doubt vehemently resist their efforts to bring about their reforms. And that does not even begin to factor in the power of the Masters, who both enjoy the honey trade and the corruption of government officials. How much will they be able to actually do for London, bogged down by a constant struggle against the considerable forces arrayed against them? Even if by miraculous chance they manage to enact their reforms near the end of the year, they will soon be gone anyway. And then it will be a simple matter for the powers that be to reverse these changes, loosen restrictions, and reinstate certain corrupt parties.
We must come to terms with a rather sad fact: neither the Campaigner nor the Detective’s goals will do much of anything to improve the lives of the downtrodden in any meaningful capacity. It is sad but true. Their intentions are pure, but less honey in the dens and fewer judges on the benches will do little to impact the lives of the downtrodden everyman. If they had more time, perhaps we’d see some benefit in the long run, but time is sadly a luxury we sorely lack.
However, all is not lost. There is still a candidate with a real plan for change, who’s daring strategy can make a meaningful change during the mere year of his term.
Where his opponents stand to face a lengthy legal battle, Feducci offers the people of London the chance to elevate themselves now. A chain that can be climbed by all! Where fortunes, wealth, and a better standard of living can be won by all people willing to seek them. By the time Feducci’s term ends, who knows how many of London’s corrupt elites will be in the gutter, how many good and decent people who never had the chance to prosper will have newfound fortune?
Citizens, I implore you to choose the candidate who’s plan will touch the most lives! The plan that gives the people the fair chance they need right now! For a better London, for a Fair London, I implore you!
VOTE FEDUCCI![/quote]
If I didn’t know better, I’d almost think your implying Mr Irons would be upset seeing the navy’s officials cleaned of the New Sequence’s influence.
Or having our enforcers of the law be cleared of internal criminal and revolutionary elements, thus enhancing their efficiency and credibility.
