Rosalie for President

1. What office are you running for?  Give a brief reason why you are running for this office and not another.
            I am running for President. I chose this over any other office because I believe I would be able to fairly represent our country and voice this to other countries as well as officials within our own country. On top of that, I’d kill to explore Air Force One, and that’s a really cool presidential perk.

2. What party are you running under?  Give a reason why you chose this party.
I am running under the Democratic Party. It’s a rather of flexible party that allows some individuality, and is filled with younger people, who are my ideal voters.

3. List three important campaign issues that you wish to address and your side of the issue.  What do you purpose to do?  Why is it necessary to do this?  How does this issue affect your voters?
Marriage Equality
            I believe you should be able to marry whoever you want to marry, regardless of sexual orientation. Almost everyone knows someone who is LGBTQ, and I think we’re not truly equal until you can marry the one you love.
Suicide/Bullying Prevention
            My home state of Alaska has one of the highest suicide rates in the country, and I’d like to prevent not only suicide, but also bullying. Almost everyone has been affected by suicide.
Funding NASA.
            If we gave just one cent per dollar of our tax dollars to NASA, there would be so much more scientific growth and discovery in our country. Many everyday things, from memory foam mattresses to scratch-resistant lenses for glasses to even the insoles in your shoes.

4. How do you purpose to reach voters?  (Think of what we've read about election campaigns).  Who do you think your voters are?  What age or demographic?
I would focus mostly on the internet and television because they are the most popular ways of obtaining information. The television would mostly be for reaching the 35 and older category, while the internet would be directed towards the 18-35’s.


5. How do you purpose to reach nonvoters (or do you)?
Many nonvoters are young people, and the majority of them have internet access. I would focus on an online campaign as well, being active on tumblr and twitter and trying to show them who I am and what I would do as president. From this they will hopefully think, “Huh, she’s not that bad,” and vote for me.
