I'm not going to disagree on you there. But no sweet talk and no bull**** might produce some good results. Like I said, if there's no campaign to try to convnce people that it would be better, they would have to convince the people by making it better. Re-electing would be a mattter od actions in the last 4 years and not the words of the last 4 weeks.
To put in an example. Last year we had elections for mayors of municipalities. We had behind us a mandate of a very competent mayor- Leopold Pogacar. Under his mandate the entire infastructure was being overhauled. 50% of all roads have been replaced anew, sewer system to every house (previosly only the newer parts had sewers, we had a septic tank), fiber optics to almost all houses plus a new advertisement campaign that tripled tourist visitations. His re-election campaign was almost non existent. A coule of posters, one picnic. He was re-elected by 78%. It was his 4 years that convinced us, not the 4 weeks before an election. Oh, not to leave a loophole, he was elected in the frst place for having an honest and hardworking reputation, also had a modest election campaign.

Thank you and good night
