I'd like to apologize about the weather, I promise you elect me I'll try to do something about that.

Or

Hello Students and Teachers of Culver City,

I'd like to welcome you all today, a day of momentous importance, to give a final address to the Student Body as candidate for the office of President. This is not a position to be taken lightly and definitely one not to be wasted or abused.

I came to this school only knowing one person. I'll admit, I didn't have many friends my first few months here. I had come from a tiny private school and had to adjust to this grand institution. However, that fourteen year old boy from St. Augustine is not the same man who stands before you today, asking for your vote. Today, I an aspiring leader of the Associated Student Body.

Many of you are just regular students. You never get involved in school spirit events or any activities of the like. It'd be interesting to know that until this campaign started, I was the same as you, never joining any class council or a related group. I wholeheartedly understand every reason you have not to care and with that understanding I know exactly how to get all of you involved in our school. It does seem intimidating to go up to ASB or the Administration to propose an idea or make known a complaint or grievance, I will not argue that. However, I will make it my main goal to end this perception of ASB. Under me, the lines between ASB and the general population will be blurred; therefore I will create a more personal community and government within our school. Any student will be able to contribute as they please.

CCHS sits in the center of Los Angeles, but we have no direct ties to any schools in the area, let alone the city. We must be vigilant and work towards building these ties, which we will work to construct with my Documents of Los Angeles Unity

No longer will the ideas of creative students be ignored

No longer will the complaints and grievances of students be brushed aside

No longer will we remain an isolated community, but become a leader to the schools around us.

No longer will ASB be a separate clique from the students and it WILL become the Vox Populi, the voice of the people.

Culver Rises!
Culver Prevails!
Culver Renews!

Well I am running for President of the Associated Student Body at my school. I'm sorta the underdog, but I do have A LOT of support behind me. Here is my speech I'm going to give on April 2nd. I'm planning on either running with this or writing a different one, but I'm not sure yet.

Also, I apologize for speech misspell :P

In the first two paragraphs, get rid of all those uses of the word "I" because, whenever you are trying to hypnotize a group, it is important to settle into their experience... pacing and leading their attention... using rhythm... entrancing the group!

Say the same thing, but say You! You! Not, "I"!

"I" is boring. Name names. Make the audience feel your presence up there...

Do not call them this ---> Many of you are just regular students. You never get involved in school spirit events or any activities of the like.

Do not presume to understand them ----> It'd be interesting to know that until this campaign started, I was the same as you, never joining any class council or a related group. I wholeheartedly understand every reason you have not to care and with that understanding I know exactly how to get all of you involved in our school.

No unnecessary words---> It does seem intimidating to go up to ASB or the Administration to propose an idea or make known a complaint or grievance, I will not argue that.

Your job is to ge them excited. Before you compose this speech, make a list of words that feel good to hear. You can get very good at this!!
