Shaking the Mayor's Hand

Dreamer30 here with my BEST idea yet! Well, actually my ONLY idea (LoL), but bear with me here. Yesterday, I was driving my brother home from school. I asked him how was school and he said it was fine and he learned about goverment. At that I had an idea pop up in my head; Whyville should have a government system!
Well, at that I thought, we could have people vote for candidates. The people that are candidates should have AT LEAST a good record, a medal, and know a thing or two about being a mayor. Then when voting time comes they vote. Candidates can also convince people to vote for them by making speeches, flyers, AND you can make promises, BUT you MUST fulfill them if you become mayor (I suggest people that earn A LOT of money promise money... Editor's Note: Here's hoping you don't mean bribes! We can't have that in Whyville!! ;-)).
Also I think to liven things up a bit, we should have sponsors for the government. I think that the people in the government should have a house and fancy things. The mayor's term would be, say, 3 months. Then after that time, there would be another election.
Well, City Hall, Bigfoot, Cyranojoe, Jen and other City Hall members, please consider my proposal.
Logging Off,

Howdy Whyville! =D
This is veronica1, proposing a idea. I thought of the idea of having a form of government in which the citizens could be involved.
In this government, City Hall would be at the top still, but Whyvillians could be something. Like some schools have student council, why not have a "why" council? To run for this, however, it would not be a popularity contest. City Hall could pick some people who could run. People who she knows are responsible. City Hall could pick up to ten people. We could have a whole election! =D
To vote, you would say "vote veronica1", just for example, and that would be your vote! Also, we could have a spot in the poll booth where we could vote and see what the people running have to say; if you want to vote for that person just click on a button.
The top 3 people could be something. Let's say this:
- The person with the most votes could be head of this "why" council. This person could also receive a 1 month why pass, so they could get started with ideas and sharing them, etc.
- The second person would help suggest ideas and so on, and just help.
- The third person could be backup. Just in case some on did something bad, wrong, etc. then got booted from the "job."
I think this would be cool. The head person could meet with City Hall and tell them what they want to do. This was a idea I got while reading the Politics section in the Times! ;)
