Fellow Ocians,
Tomorrow is indeed a historic day; tomorrow will be a new day for a new Federation. The question we must ask ourselves before we head to the polls is this: Shall we elect another politician who will simply maintain the status quo? The ability to provide a philosophical synopsis of election events should not be what constitutes a moderate leader. My fellow Ocians the President does so much more than just sign documents; he is a symbol of unity, strength and hopefully charisma. You all know where I stand; you know I am charismatic, active and bold. However I must warn you against those who believe that they have already categorized me as "confrontational." I am willing to work towards a government of brotherhood and unity, and I am fully willing to appoint my opponents to positions should I be elected.
Secondly, before voters go to the polls I hope that they will look at one last thing. Despite what many would think, I did not run a smear campaign, I ran a campaign of honesty and integrity and I did nothing but lay out the facts for the voters. However, I was definitely disappointed when a friend of mine had heard that a certain candidate "Does not even want to be President." And instead is running for the office merely so that I do not become President. I do not only question the motives of one of my opponents, but I question his maturity and his integrity. My opponent however, ran a smear campaign from the start.
A national leader must not only be charismatic, but a national leader must additionally make decisions he can stand by and not change his mind several times after the decision is made. I will not only be a decisive leader I will lead this nation with a great passion. My opponents think that they have already categorized me, but I ask you to allow me to push Ocia forward together and prove them wrong.
Lets change Ocia together
