Well, this is a liberal arts college, right?
Where from the clash of ideas, truth emerges.
Well, really?
This is what I call Harvard's
not so subtle means of candidate suppression, not voter suppression, candidate suppression.
And everybody can vote, but not everybody can run.
It ill becomes a liberal arts college where the clash of ideas will produce the truth.
We'll worry about the clash of ideas on the board of overseers.
The board of overseers is important.
It doesn't have the same power and authority as the Harvard Corporation, the so-called president and fellows of Harvard College, but it's very influential.
And very important, and it would be a great perch for me to try to exert influence for the university to get back to where it was before it was taken over by the administrators.
See, the alumni were educated in an era when these concepts were taken more seriously and before the administrators took over.
So I do think if I get my message out, I'm going to win the seat.
And if I win a seat,
I will have a great perch for trying to convince the real power, which is the Harvard Corporation, to do the things that I'm suggesting.
Get rid of 95% of the administrators, get rid of the speech codes, reduce tuition by 40%.
All of these salutary benefits.
Can you imagine if Harvard became the most affordable college in the United States?
It would have a tremendous effect on the whole country.
You can vote online or you can vote by paper ballot.
