Carmi jumped onto a tall rock, eyes wild as she stared at the cats below. They cleared their throat, before mewing loud and clear, "Fellow clanmates, have you ever been ignored, pushed aside because there wasn't a place for you? Well, fear not, for my glamorous plans will make sure you're always listened to!" she chuckled. "It's about time leaders listened to their clan. If I become leader, my den will /always/ be open, until I sleep. Feel free to come by, chat, complain, ask for relationship advice, I'm here to help! That's not enough to satisfy your hunger, well, the Gathering of Voices sure will! When me and my future deputy are faced with a challenging decision, I'll host a clan meeting. Tell me your stance, what you want the clan to do, and I'll make a perfect solution that will satisfy ALL of you! Have my opponents considered that? Maybe, maybe not, oh well!" they paused, catching their breath. "Now, for one of my favorites, your ambitions! Once you're a leader, feel free to come and tell me exactly what /you/ want to achieve, and I'll do everything in my power to help you! After all, I believe that all cats should have the opportunity to do what they wish. That's enough about the entire clan, let's move on to clan politics!" she let out a small giggle, continuing. "Once I'm leader, I'll choose the best of the best warriors to take under my supervision and specially train them! The best of the best will become my amazing deputy, and the rest…well, that's for later. Who knows, maybe I'll even tell you some of my top secret ideas. The rest of you will become part of my Inner Circle, who will be 3 cats I'll choose to be my advisors. You may argue that strong leaders don't need advisors, but wrong! Advisors are basically the voice of the clan, in case I need a stronger voice in my decisions. Finally, before I hand the stage to my competitors, I'd like to tell you about my training reforms and patrolling schedule! When you're a kit, me and my inner circle will watch you, see what your interests are, and tailor your training to EXACTLY what fits you best! No more having to sit through boring classes about stuff you don't really care about! Ok, I'm running out of time here, so enough about that. Every few weeks or so, I'll assign mandatory patrols with set partners. You must do them. Well, why? Simple! You'll make new connections, and connections equal unity! After all, in the case of an emergency, we must all be united, am I right? Well, that's all for today, and thank you! Make sure to vote Carminecrescendo as your leader, but only if you agree with my ideas." she grinned, jumping off the rock and retreating into the crowd.
