When legislators want to know what students think about an issue, they, too, often first ask the student body president. The student body vice president is in charge of the cabinets that are in charge of programs for the student body. This is the person to talk to. But again, if you didn't vote for the person in office, your opinion basically is not heard. And once again, by failing to cast your ballot you have waived your right to complain.
Voting is a very simple task.
It takes all of 10 minutes. Even the busiest students can take the time to look up the polling place in this newspaper, grab their IDs and choose the candidates they think represent their views best. Today at 1 p.m., the presidential candidates will debate in the Plaza of the Americas. You pay them. They work for you.
