Wondering who to vote for in November? Afraid that our country will be devastated by either outcome? Worried about your safety and freedom of speech being jeopardized? Concerned that America will fall into the wrong hands? Have no fear, confused voter. Only one candidate has the experience, dedication, and organizational skills necessary to lead this country with finesse:
Leslie Knope.
Our other candidate, Michael Scott, does not show nearly the same level of promise.
While he has been a businessman for years and manages a regional branch of Dunder Mifflin, he is unprofessional on an appalling level and uses offensive language that would only be destructive to our country.
Leslie Knope is criticized by her opponents for her tolerance and organizational skills, but these are the very traits for which she should be praised! The accusations against Michael Scott, on the other hand, of vulgarity and an ill temper are unfortunately true. One would think that his many outbursts would deter voters, but it is not so.
Many voters are still waffling between the two, and we want to ensure that those votes go unanimously to Leslie Knope because she loves waffles!
Without further ado, here are all the reasons any voter needs to "Switch Your Vote to Leslie Knope!"
1. She is thick-skinned and knows how deal with the haters...
...as opposed to Michael Scott.
2. She knows how to rock the red pantsuit.
3. She is invested in fighting the obesity problem...
...unlike our other candidate.
4. She doesn't crack under pressure.
In fact, she thrives on it.
5. She is relentless in her drive for progress.
Hm...
6. She supports the LGBT community.
7. She doesn't stand for sexist comments...
Or ideas.
Michael Scott, on the other hand, perpetuates them in exchanges like this:
Or this:
Or this:
He doesn't have the best track record with women.
8. She's extremely organized and always has a plan.
Scott does not share her sentiment.
9. She understands privilege, but Scott clearly does not.
9. She saved Pawnee from a financial meltdown and has never done this:
10. She also manages to avoid lawsuits.
11. She is confident in her presidential abilities...
And she is likely already eyeing a second term because she has so much to accomplish in so little time.
12. However, she is still aware of her limitations.
13. She doesn't make racially charged comments like this:
14. She also isn't a public relations nightmare.
15. She is willing to pull every all-nighter necessary to improve the well-being of Americans.
16. She values her friends.
17. She doesn't admire or sympathize with dictators...
...nor does she aspire to be one.
18. She takes builds on the ideas and suggestions of others...
...rather than steal them.
19. She has focused every area of her life on her campaign...
...and has been involved in politics for most of her life.
20. Finally, she has a great victory dance!
Don't worry-- you'll get to see it again soon.
Leslie Knope is the clear choice in this election. Her dedication and experience go hand in hand with her organizational skills to create the perfect candidate. If you still have any doubts, just picture Michael Scott in the White House.
How about... Knope!
Author's Note: I personally love both of these shows. Michael Scott's actions and statements are purely comedic and are presented here as such because the American people would never really elect someone like him, right?
