Where were you?
You can also watch events on Help.com as they happen
Ummm… How about you just elaborate on what you just said?
haha that could work. i really wanna cuss him out, but i don’t think that would really be appropriate.
If you want to be taken seriously, then be mature.
yeah well I live in Las Vegas! Sin City Baby! And we have had that problem since I started middle school 4 years ago! No never held back! Writing to the government, talking to them, cussing at them, or screaming at them doesn’t help! Just get used to it sweetie!!!

true! I understand no teenage girl writes proper on an evryday basis but if you want anyone to take you serious saying thanks to our suckass governor and WHATS UP WITH THAT!!! aren’t going to help!
i figured that cussing at him wouldn’t work, and it’s not that i seriously think that just because i told him that i think should do this, that he is going to give the schools back our money, but it is more because i feel like i should say something. ya know?
make some sort of a statement
haha yeah, i wouldn’t seriously call him a suckass.
Just give your reasons with backing, in a well-written format, and you’ll have done your part. If you want to go above and beyond, you can ask others to do the same if they don’t like it. You could organize a protest, get news crews there, make a big scene…
But enough about what I would do.
Actually… do keep in mind that he isn’t taking any pay for this. He is running your state for free.
i probably wont go all out on the protest thingy, but it sounds like a cool idea

are you sure he doesn’t get paid?
Last I checked, he was refusing to accept pay. Of course, last I checked was when he first got the position.
But he is a multi-million dollar movie star.
I was also going to suggest getting a rally of interested students, teachers, parents, community members, etc. together to show that this is really a big issue. If I lived there I’d come, Music was what made my HS days worthwhile :)
Tell him how you feel… like what you said to us, but make it sound more adultish.
Write your letter from the heart, use appropriate language. You might want to have some of your classmates write as well. The Govenor has children your age, you may want to speak to him as a parent of children who currently attend CA schools. Try not to be too harsh in your tone, but appeal to his parental nature. Address the letter to his wife as well, sort of like a letter they may get from their children’s school. You can really make your letter stand out by approaching the issue from that angle. It wouldnt be offensive, and it would show creativity and it would make him take a more human approach to the situation and not just a governmental approach. Good luck…I can see a future in politics for you…
