Ponies for President

Softly, a single spotlight hit the sight of a fair mare standing with a proud demenour about her. She tossed her curly crimson locks back once, seemingly to calm herself but only having it come across as an act of stoking her own ego. After a pause drawn out by her own conditions, she finally spoke in a tone befitting a stage personality. "Equestria needs a president. No getting around that. With our rampant changeling outbreaks, uncontrolled chaos, and horribly planned musical choreography; Equestria is being run into the mud. But, we here at Ponies for President do not blame our rulers Celestia and Luna. We blame our government system. A government drummed up by the democrats--"

Out from the side of the stage the mare stood upon, a little gray colt poked his head into view, sporting on his head a mic set and a green cap. "We don't have democrats yet..." he reminded her in a hush.

"Drummed up by the republicans--"

"We don't have republicans yet..." he added again.

"Drummed up by the buffalo!"

"...Sure?" the colt shrugged once and bowed himself out, unsure if he should rebuke that one.

"So we have enlisted as many pony candidates as we could find to run for president. How did we do it? Well, Equestria has no law saying I can't do that, so I did just that. And how are we going to pay for these campaigns? With tax payer money."

Yet again, the colt from before poked his head within view and interjected, "We don't have tax payers yet..."

"With television broadcasting--"

"We don't have TV yet..." he mumbled, starting to worry in his voice.

"With illegal embezzling--" the mare's own agrivation started to show as she grit her teeth together.

"When is embezzling legal...?" the colt pointed out.

"With the help of a benefactor."

"...Alright?" seeing this was going nowhere, he submitted once more and drew out of sight.

Noting her own agrivation building, the mare combed her mane back and struck a charming smile. "Yes. We here at Ponies for President are happy to announce that the DAPC foundation has graciously paid for all our campaign needs... As well as putting televisions in every ponies house... And supplying those houses with cable... And telephone wires... And telephones to be connected to those wires... BOTTOM LINE! We shall be streaming all your Ponies for President needs all day, everyday, until we have a president to call our own. This has been Fox Trot and Cue Card. And you stay questing, Equestria."
