Should We Let Politics Become Personal ?
Lesson 3 " Off and Running "

To the Editor :

As a high school junior , I have seen three school elections , and this one is definitely the best . Most students seem involved in one way or another . Election meetings and activities occur almost daily . Classrooms are with posters . Huge banners have us to vote . And everywhere , excitement hangs in the air . What's the difference ? This year , the election is part of the curriculum .
For those of you who have been sleeping for the past two months , let me explain . This year , we are not simply electing a student council , student body president , and
other officers . Day by day , this election is teaching us broader lessons about government . That's because our election includes many elements of local and national elections . Unfortunately , however , we're imitating one element that doesn't belong in either arena : negative campaigning .
At first , I to write this letter . After all , the election began in such a positive way . The school created an election committee , and , by my social studies teacher , I decided to join . The committee had each student participate in a on school and national issues . Each candidate remained positive through this process .
However , this positive process has , bogged down in discussions that have nothing to do with the issues . Anyone who has this very newspaper , the Lincoln High Chronicle , has seen negative reports . At a recent event , a reporter questioned how much Steve McFee's membership on the basketball team has taught him leadership skills . Your reporter repeated his slogan , " Team McFee : A Slam Dunk . " Then , she asked , " Isn't it true you're just a bench player ? "
McFee looked . Things only got worse when the reporter her lungs and asked , " If you've exaggerated your teamwork experience , what else are you exaggerating ? " The next day , one of his opponents displayed a new poster that read ,
" McFee ? Not On My Team ! "
A few days later , McFee fired back with this ad : " Rachel Brown says she'll improve the cafeteria . But is she qualified for the job ? " The commercial claimed that campaign workers saw Brown purchasing junk food at a convenience store . The ad
concluded , " For a Healthy Election , Junk Rachel Brown . "
Positive slogans have given way to sound bites that spread petty , personal attacks .
People are already saying that these things do reflect what goes on in real elections ? which is what our own election is all about .
Well , as students , we're taught to look at everything with a critical eye . We can learn from our mistakes ? even if our leaders can't . So , let's do better than real politicians : Stop the negative campaigns .
Sincerely ,
Mia Marshall , 11th Grad e
