Biography
McKay Roundy currently lives in South Jordan, he came to Itineris for his Junior Year and has not regretted a minute of it. McKay has a deep respect and love for his country and wishes to see it improved. Why I am a Whig: I am a Whig because I believe in meritocracy and respectful discourse and cooperation between all sides of the political spectrum. Our current political system has been in use for over a hundred years and it is breaking down. We are caught in the grasp of a two party system that perpetuates it's self because of the first past the post voting system. I am committed to change and reform of our current voting system to one that will serve the people and their true political stances. The two party system has obscured the democratic process and have made many people uninterested in the system because they feel they don't have any say in the government. |
Biography
Zachary Alvord lives in Riverton Utah, a small suburb of Salt Lake City. He is going to Itineris Early College High School and is on track of getting the Associates of Science Degree from Salt Lake Community College. Why I am a Whig: I am a Whig because of the centrist ideas and their independence values. They believe in trying new ideas and do them based on facts and knowledge, not political boundaries. They also reward people based on how they work for their life and their achievement. The reason I choose to run with McKay Roundy is because him and I have the same believes and agree with the Whigs politics. However, not every partner ship is perfect. I am a centrist person, but I believe in more "liberal" ideas than my Presidential running mate. However, this shows how people with differing ideas can work together. |
