Tamara Wolson's Final Speech

A very confident Tamara Wolson took the stage, her voice belting out each word in her District C brogue.

"I'd like to talk to you about the future of our education. Friends, like it or not, education secures your children's and your children's children's future." She paused, listening for the  polite applause to settle down. "The public education system is a mess! There is too much government involvement in public education!" More polite applause. "My solution is to take government out of the public education system completely, other than using it to standardize educational curriculum." She paused, again, listening to the applause, this time more raucous. "The Mutant University is a MESS!" She said, gripping her hair to laughter. "There is, however well-intentioned, much too much government involvement with the University!" Applause again, louder than before. "The only thing the government will do in a Tamara Wolson presidency is recruit teachers of new courses and new majors!" Thunderous applause. "These are the simple solutions that we must make to ensure our offspring's future!" A loud burst of applause, riding in intensity, exactly as Wolson had planned. "The future is bright! Stick with me and we will go far! We will take education back from the abysmal failure it threatens to be, and Mutanatia's future will rise again! Thank you!"
