Running for Student Council

Here's a copy of my speech. I tied for second but then I lost.

I would like to be your representative on the student council. I would sacrifice my recess and lunch to help coordinate and plan fundraisers and field trips on your behalf. I have a lot of great ideas and enthusiasm. For example, I’m going to try hard to get us more field trips. Also, I’m hoping that we can get a class pet which would help us learn responsibility. Some traits that I have that would help me be a good candidate is that I’m good at planning, problem solving, good at speaking to adults and I’m polite.  I would try my best to help change the school for the better of the students. I will listen to your ideas and I’m looking forward to taking them to the council. I’m not promising anything, but I might even be able to get more salt on the French fries.
