Well, I'm running for student council this year (vice pres, not bad eh? :D )

 

 

 

The school allows me to post 4 posters in the school.

 

 

 

I need a bit of help. Can anyone think of a few really funny slogans for a poster?

 

 

 

Restrictions:

 

No politics

 

no offending government officials

 

No negative campaigning against other candidates

 

 

 

Suggestions:

 

Maybe the use of a popular company slogan? I am currently thinking of a use for Geico, but there are a lot of other companies too.

 

 

 

Thanks! (btw for anyone who tries to say my thread is asking for people to do work for me, its not. I just need a sloga, I'll do the rest :D )

A little hard to come up with a clever campaign poster without knowing your name, isnt it?

my name's warren *point's to screen name* :D

 

 

 

Rhyming Warren with "borin'" is a bit cliched, so i didn't want to use it.

Just be funny, outgoing, and say your name a lot in speeches I suppose :-w .

 

 

 

Most people don't care enough (or don't have the brainpower to) to pick a good Student Council. Most students just act like morons and pick the name they remember, or whoever was the funniest or something, regardless of what they're planning to do the following year or whether or not they actually have a brain.

 

 

 

Well, that happened to me anyways... class frikking clown won the election. Stupid freshmen voting for him just because he was funny -.- . We had a great group of smart, amazing candidates against him, but he ended up having five times the votes of the person who came in second (about 600 votes).

 

 

 

Well, that's for if you have a speech. If you have a poster, I dunno, make sure the text is big.

 

 

 

Or just put your face on the poster, and be screaming or something with the words "VOTE '_____' OR ELSE!" That'll grab they're attention, and they'll at least remember your name and face :P .

SEX (IN big bold letters)

 

 

 

Now that I've got your attention, Vote for Warren

sadly that would probably work :uhh:

 

 

 

Lmao that's GOLD!

*Quickly fires up Photoshop*

 

 

 

The Lenin and Pedro ones are awesome. :D

About the sex one... this is a grade school (im in 7th grade, campaigning for the younger grades...

 

 

 

 

 

LOL I'm definatly gonna do the Pedro one! Thanks!

Fixid'd.

 

 

 

Anyway, I have a question. Are the majority of students who will be voting the kind that do not really care and vote for the first person that comes to mind, or are they the kind that will actually take into consideration what you have to say, and your ideas? My whole "campaign for president" if you would call it that, is based around the idea that the students need a voice, instead of twenty or so people making their decisions, but only because that most of the students are the kind that will care about having an open meeting every month where they can "voice" their concerns. If you need a catchy slogan to attract attention, be sure to back it up with a few good ideas, then, even if you don't win, some of your ideas may rub off onto the other "candidates."

 

 

 

My idea for a catchy slogan:

 

He's Not Foreign, Vote Warren. (Sucks, doesn't it?)

 

 

 

Good luck with your "campaign"

About the question: I'm in a k-8 grade school. Most people look for comedy, which is why I want a funny campaign banner.

 

 

 

And the catchy slogan: uhh... in my school those rhymes ain't the most popular any more. besides, to put it in a poster, what Am I gonna draw? that funny loomking old asian man that appears in ads on these forums?

 

 

 

 

 

Hey... thats not a bad idea!

It's a popularity contest. If you're not popular, you will not win.

 

 

 

I realized this in 7th grade when we did stuff like this. One of my friends could have easily been called the most "popular" guy in our grade, and he ran. His speech was, and I quote "Vote for me, because I rule." everyone clapped. A kid who was kind of dorky got up, gave a few minutes long speech and actually had some pretty good ideas...He got a mediocre applause. Noone voted for him. Everyone voted for the popular guy, even though he was stupid and didn't plan on doing anything with his position. He just went to the meetings to get out of social studies class.

 

 

 

So yea...Your poster might as well just say "I'm running." if you're a popular guy, and if you're not, it might as well just say "I'm not going to win." because, well...You won't. :P

True, but I knwo from past elections that the advertisments is chosen over popularity. Some of the most popular kids in jr. high who were running were pwnt in the elections because of someone with an ad that made people laugh.

They will vote for someone who has the right mix of funny and seriousness.

As soon as I read that I imagined this as a poster:

 

 

 

"If you don't vote for me, I will eat your firstborn

 

Ha ha! Just joking!

 

But seriously..."

Here are the things needed to win a class election: 1. You must be funny

 

2. You must be popular 3. You got to be popular and 4. You got to be popular. Being good looking helps too :P Intelligence, good ideas and leadership are unimportant.

 

 

 

Please don't do that. That would make me not want to vote for you. Way unoriginal.

 

 

 

Zon, lmao at that Lenin one!

I think it would really depend on the intelligence of your grade.

 

 

 

Until you find out, don't go quoting any 19th centure russian philosophers

Do a funny speach, but with seriousness thrown in there

 

 

 

Start out with a good officer barbrady spin

 

 

 

Take out a dr. seuss book (Go dog go preferably) and read the passage he read, say it played an important part in your life, and brought you to where you are today :P

 

 

 

thats what I did in my VP speach and I won by a landslide.

 

 

 

i also ended it by saying "In all seriousness, im the man for the position, im friendly, and i am a good listener, im willing to listen to everyone's concerns and work to change them, i feel a person who isnt willing to do something like this is a [bleep].....(tator). Thank you all and good day"

 

 

 

get it? dictator? *Snicker*

 

 

 

 

 

I dont think you would get away with that in a primary school though.

 

 

 

But keep it funny, with a little seriousness thrown in, and you will most likely win. If you give a speach that people remember, they will vote for you, and people always remember the speach that made them laugh there butts off.

Yes, I'm sure that no one will get the funny part on the Lenin poster because they surely think that Stalin is some human parody of Mario (the nintendo character). If that would be, try using some more famous like a dollard with someone famous like Hitler..Errr...

 

 

 

Oh, it might be this:

 

 

 

And image of yourself with some photoshopped stalin/roosevelt/hitler moustache and the phrase:

 

 

 

"Vote for Warren...

 

...Because good leaders have cool moustaches"

A lenin poster will be very geeky. It doesn't work. I've seen posters with gandhi etc..
