We managed to get an exclusive interview with a very busy candidate for the role of leader of parliament (LP). It was really easy to see how much hard work the candidates have to take up to compete with each other. But the ACP finally chose an LP candidate, Nicole Vournazos. Despite the long primary, the ACP had a wonderful display of unity at the press conference, where all candidates helped articulate their platform.
She asked me if we could go right to the topic and so we started.
The Petronian Tribune: Why did you propose yourself for the candidacy for the role of leader of Parliament?
Nicole Vournazos: I think I support what the party does and I feel that I have a lot to bring to the table as a parliamentary leader.
PT: Do you believe you are the best choice for being the head of representation of the parliament of the people of great Petronia?
NV: That is up to the people.
PT: Since there are three candidates in your party, which one do you believe to have the biggest chance of success?
NV: Again, I cannot predict the future. I know I have a lot of skills and talents and which I hope to utilize.
PT: Don't you think that having three candidates will only split up the voices that might have supported one candidate from your party into three?
NV: Dr. Ron Von Burg has suggested that we choose one.
PT: In what ideology or opinions do your candidates differ?
NV: We all support our party ideals.
PT: Since you say that they have the same ideological base and same goals, do you see any reason for having three candidates who all represent the same thing?
NV: I think that it is simply three unique people with different voices who want to run.
PT: What do you think about the other candidates running for this post?
NV: They are all great and I love working with them.
PT: Do you have any plan of you campaign, such as for example the candidate of MEAP, Nasser Siadat, has?
NV: Check advertising.
PT: What would you want to achieve if elected?
NV: That definitely depends on what the party presents.
PT: Do you have any preferences for the parliamentary buffet?
NV: Mmm, sounds yummy. Fruit is a must.
