After garnering more votes than Matthew Slovik and Taylor Collison while losing my race in the Duke Student Government election, I felt I should become DSG president.
Unfortunately, that position has not been offered to me, nor will it, as the run-off is today and my name is not on the ballot. I would however, like to support Taylor Collison. Why you might ask? Well he asked me to, on the telephone no less; not over instant messenger or email. This shows me that he's a people person.
Even with the political kiss of death (that is, the Duke Conservative Union endorsement) I still think he will make a strong president, able to bring about the radical changes necessary within DSG and throughout the University.
So while you are stuffing your faces with Alpine bagels or 'Dillo tacos, take a moment after you are done reading this to find yourself a computer and vote for the next DSG president. I highly recommend Taylor Collison to those who voted for me, and for those who didn't, I'll forgive you if you take my recommendation.
