You're one of the most popular students at Carver.
You're honest, you're straightforward,
And you don't crack under pressure,
As we all saw in an amazing fourth quarter against westside.
All the kids look up to you.
Now, what does that spell?
Student... Council... President.
Who, me? Oh, no. I...
I don't know anything about that stuff, Mr, I mean
I mean, besides, that's Tracy flick's thing.
She's always working so hard.
Yeah. no. She's a real go-getter, all right.
And she's super nice.
Yeah, yeah, But one person assured of victory
Kind of undermines the whole idea of democracy, don't you think?
I mean, that'd be more like a dictatorship like we studied.
But, Mr. M, there's--
Paul, what's your favorite fruit?
- Pears. - Pears. Good. Ok.
- Apples. - Apples. Fine.
Let's say all you ever knew were apples.
Apples, apples, more apples.
You might think apples were pretty good,
Even if you got a rotten one once in a while.
But then one day... There's an orange.
And now you can make a decision.
Do you want an apple or do you want an orange?
That's democracy.
I also like bananas.
Exactly. Good.
So what do you say?
Maybe it's time to give a little something back.
