Character
Hello all, Yusan Fenn here to say hows it going and give a shout out at me running for Supreme Chancellor. I will not lie that i am posting here due to seeing Jack Sparrow doing so and as such i found it as a good idea. Down below is the complete copy of Yusan's speech, enjoy and good luck to the others like mister Sparrow.
Yusan cleared his throat, taking a drink of water before looking straight forward and breathing in. "Senators, People of the many systems that reside in Republic Space, and those of you who are watching this speech. I am Yusan Fenn, born as nothing more than the child of an Echani warrior i stand here as a Senator and hopefully in the future your supreme chancellor. I run for one simple reason, and that is the fact that i am disappointed in the recent happenings that have occurred and want to have a chance to change things."
He paused and let his voice hang in the air for a moment, his expression a mixture of sincerity, worry, and seriousness. "The Shepard City Ship, though it was a weapon of great power and a symbol of the things that we could accomplish, it was given away to the Confederacy of Independent States. Yes, it secured peace, and yes it possibly saved millions, but think this was not the problems. Every time we are bullied with war, will we just pay the aggressors off, just give them a fleet next time. The problem isnt that the ship was given to the Confederacy of Independent Systems, it is that it was given to them quickly without any input from the rest of the senate. Yes the former interrim chancellor POSSIBLY saved millions, but there were other ways we could have prevented war instead of giving away a symbol of the strength and marvel that the Republic could accomplish when united.
Now, with the topic of foreign relations brought up this poses another question for you all that are watching. I come from a world on the edge of republic space, and i dont want to see my world torn asunder by the mechanisms of war. With that, i plan to fight for galactic peace, not between just the republic and other Factions. What i mean is that say war breaks out between the Mandolorians and the Sith Empire, yes this does not effect us, but the innocents on the planets devastated by war need a voice and i want to be that voice." He stopped and looked over everything infront of him, thinking for another moment before speaking again, his tone completely calm and serious now.
"Next is the matter of Jedi, or former Jedi, in the Senate. The Jedi are knights of the republic, they should not hold the power of office as it sways the favor of orders in their favor. As such, the Republic embarrassed itself and almost started a war over the loss of Artifacts and Relics. Do you all want a war started over Relics of the past, the lives of billions lost because of an artifact? My point is, our former Supreme Chancellor's ties to the jedi created a political disaster for us, and now her successor must repair the damage. I do not, no i will not let it happen again, whether i'm elected at all or not, i will not let our beautiful republic be destroyed by the actions of a Jedi or Former Jedi." He slammed his hand down on the podium in front of him to illustrate his words, his tone worried, strong, authoritative, and certain. Though he immediately straightened up and looked forward again, calm and serious.
"Let me take a break for a moment to say this i come from a border planet, with no representation here until i was elected, i rose from the common people without someone to help me. I hold no companies in my name nor do i buy stock in any of the companies that many current Senators do. And as such i am not influenced like others are, i cannot buy your votes, i cannot sway you with promises that i can protect you all with a guarantee that my company will be solely for the republic. I am not rich, i am not corrupt, and i am not driven by money like many Politicians are. As such i can distance myself from them and do what is best for the Republic and its people, and i won't let the greed of those company owners destroy the Republic, to destroy your home. My Home. As such that is why i run today." His expression grew soft as he changed gears, letting a moment of vulnerability over take him.
“Now to bring up funding, honestly, i would keep the funding plans now except move some the necessary budgets that have corrupted our republic to help those in republic space. How many worlds were devastated over the past century because of war, pirates, virus, and natural disaster. Our republic has spent trillions on making weapons of war and not improving the world that our citizens live in. We are not the Sith Empire, we are not warmongers that are spreading to create an empire. Long ago this republic did not go from planet to planet, conquering and taking control of said planets for resources and other influence. We were content and if systems wanted to join us we accepted them in open arms and helped improve the condition of their people.
The Arms races and creation of massive weapons like the Shepard are mistakes, ones that i will not see remade. I will push for billions of credits to be spent improving the condition of planets torn apart in war or civilizations destroyed or lost by the greed of pirates, slavers or warlords. I will purpose money into medical research to find more effective ways of curing diseases and saving those who are scarred forever by the evils that plague this galaxy.” He breathed in once more, raising himself to his full height and letting a genuine smile stretch across his face as he stared forward, his face calm, his tone soft.
“Thank you all for your time, i hope to one day make a difference for all of you, with that i leave one message. I will not slander my opponents, i will not lie to you, and i will only keep the secrets from the public that will harm it. I will leave no stone unturned in my quest to stamp out corruption and greed, and i will bring peace to you all if i can. I will not promise though that i can solve your problems, i cannot promise that war will not come. But if it does, i will gladly work day and night to stop it if i can, as it is not just your lives that are at stake, but also that of my own people. They are a border world as i said before and if the Republic fails my people will be right in the forefront of the disaster, which i will not let that happen to them or any of you.” With that he stepped back, gave a slight bow and left.
