Presidential candidate well qualified ton D.C. He is able gèt some of the most important people in the United States to listen — and act—on issues that Clackamas cares about. LeDoux, if elected, will follow a long line of tremendously effective stu dent leadership here on campus. A year before I was on campus Amy Lundy was acting as president. Then came Mike Caudle and now Jacob Boenisch. All three have risen through the ranks of ASG and have proven to be great student body presidents.

David has a firm commitment to developing the leader ship possibilities for the students of Clackamas Community College. David has the uncanny ability to create situations where students are able to take an active part in their educa tional development and academic careers. David LeDoux is truly impassioned about students and this college. Since I have known David I have seen him grow from that first-term, timid college student into a nationally re spected figure for student advocacy. David has been able to represent students across the country all the way up to the steps of Washington D.C. When David speaks out on be half of students, people listen. Not only has David been a key component in furthering the student cause on the national level, but here at home on our campus as well. David has fought to ensure that student representation is present at all levels of the college’s deci sion-making processes. David shows that it is a key piece in making the Clackamas Community College experience the best that it can be for all of us. When talking with David as a close friend of his it amazed me that he wanted to stay at Clackamas for a third year. He has had offers to come to OSU and work on a nationally recognized student government, he has been accepted to George Fox university, and has had offers to intern in Wash ington DC, but has passed all of this up to remain here at Clackamas to give back to the college, and students that have provided him all of these other great opportunities in life. David is not out for a position and title to add to his re sume, but rather to give all he has to offer to the students of Clackamas Community College. David is willing to work for you, for me, and for a better quality of student life on campus. That is why David LeDoux has my vote for student body president, and I hope we can count on you to make the right decision and vote LeDoux on May 4Ul and 5th. Thank you, Joshua D.
