It's not a toothpaste

A pointless Facebook detail: Some Senator has approved the addition of one Butch Oxendine to the ASUC Senate Facebook group. A quick Google search suggests that Oxendine sells books on how to win student government elections, and runs or has a hand in some national student government organizations. Or something. If you like boring, formulaic student government, Oxendine is apparently your guy.

Perhaps you should do your homework before you draw conclusions. Our national organization, ASGA, is changing how student governments operate, helping them grow and improve. I personally am interested in "facebook" as a way to keep in touch better with our "constituents."
 
If you want to argue that you aren't a boring, formulaic student government supporter, it would help to not use boring, formulaic statements like "changing how student governments operate, helping them grow and improve."

But it's good to know you're interested in this "facebook" thing to deal with those "constituent" concepts. I dunno why you consider them strange words that require quotes. Perhaps your nationtrotting has exposed you to an overabundance of drooling idiots who don't understand such concepts, which is all the more reason for us to be concerned that a national organization is trying to do something with our student government.
 
ASGA, SG Consulting Group, Student Leader magazine, Florida Leader magazine, Florida College Student of the Year-- 25 YEARS of SERVICE to nearly higher education institutions (yes, there are a few beyond Cal, incidentally). Our work changes people's lives for the better and we make a difference in tangible ways you'll never understand because you're an outsider "gadfly" who doesn't do anything real.

Justin Azadivar accomplishments: zero, aside from "complaining," cliche comments from a frustrated losing candidate.
 
"butch",

First of all, calling Beetle a candidate reflects so poorly on your knowledge of the situation, you have no idea. I would also shy away from calling Berkeley grad students people without accomplishments.

Congratulations on forming your "student government consulting programs". I hope you have a comfortable life fleecing money away from student groups. Well accomplished life you've got there.
 
What an immensely illuminating response, Butch. You may find out why it's illuminating here.

25 years of service, eh? Perhaps you could explain why you're as defensive as a fifteen-year-old. (Nuh uh! I'm better than YOU!)
