If you can't write your own speech, you're not going to be a very effective President. You knew that was part of the job when you ran. Get busy and write it yourself.

I agree with the previous poster - what were you doing running for a school election when you can't even be responsible enough to write a speech by yourself? Personally, I'd be ticked if I found out MY class president was trying to plagiarize someone else's speech, which is HIGHLY illegal. Stop being lazy and take up the responsibility you accepted when you ran.

Start with this -

i) "In his book, The End of Sanity, Martin Gross writes that 'blatantly irrational behavior is rapidly being established as the norm in almost every area of human endeavor. There seem to be new customs, new rules, new anti-intellectual theories regularly foisted on us from every direction. Underneath, the nation is roiling. Americans know something without a name is undermining the nation, turning the mind mushy when it comes to separating truth from falsehood and right from wrong. And they don't like it.' ...Before you claim to be a champion of free thought, tell me: Why did political correctness originate on America's campuses? And why do you continue to tolerate it? Why do you, who're supposed to debate ideas, surrender to their suppression? Let's be honest. Who here thinks your professors can say what they really believe? It scares me to death, and should scare you, too, that the superstition of political correctness rules the halls of reason. You are the best and the brightest. You, here in the fertile cradle of American academia, here in the castle of learning on the Charles River, you are the cream. But I submit that you, and your counterparts across the land, are the most socially conformed and politically silenced generation since Concord Bridge. And as long as you validate that...and abide it...and you are- by your grandfathers' standards-cowards....If you talk about race, it does not make you a racist. If you see distinctions between genders, it does not make you a sexist. If you think critically about a denomination, it does not make you anti-religion. If you accept but don't celebrate homosexuality, it does not make you a homophobe." Charlton Heston, February 16, 1999, Harvard Law School Forum. (www.narila.org/ila/hestonhs.htm)

Thanks, everybody, for your support. I'll work hard to fulfill my campaign promises, and you won't regret electing (your name here) to represent you. I won't run on forever like a real politician, but thanks again, and I'm counting on you to support your student government.
