To get a feel of
what it is like to be the Youth Governor, we sat down with Monte Cole to ask
him a few questions.
Q:
What inspired you to run for Youth Governor?
A:
The challenge to see if I could do
it. I feel a lot of what happens during the program is based on the Governor’s
efforts and how everyone works together.
Q:
What do you enjoy about being Youth Governor?
A:
The office is very nice, and you are
fairly free. You can choose where you want to apply efforts to improve the
program.
Q:
Are there any hard parts about being Youth Governor and what are they?
A:
You have to make all of the meetings
and you have to judge between the House, Senate, and Supreme Court.
Q:
How is this year’s program different from last years?
A: Our school delegation from Livingston is much more
determined this year to make a good impression and a change.
Q: What
are you most excited about this year?
A: Being another year older and being
more confident. I am more experienced this year in knowing names of people and
not just faces. I also want there to be good music at the dance. Disco Pogo
must be played!!!
Q: Do you
have any advice for future candidates hoping to run for office?
A: Know that to be elected, you need a
sense of humor, but you also have to be determined to make the program run
smoothly and efficiently.
Q.
There were a few more controversial bills this year including gay marriage
bills, what is your stance on that?
A. I believe
that gay couples are equal and they should be allowed to marry.
Q: Do you
have any advice for future candidates hoping to run for office?
A: Know that to be elected, you need a
sense of humor, but you also have to be determined to make the program run
smoothly and efficiently.
