To the candidates for Judge Advocate:

1. How would you conduct yourself should charges be brought against a good friend of yours that you consider baseless?

2. The vast majority of JR's this term passed without any public comments. What do you plan to do bring more citizen participation to these review?

3. Why should I vote for you?

1. Before any sort of trial gets into motion, where I would be acting in an official capacity, I would defend this friend and try to resvole differences outside a trial. Of course, this goes both ways: I'd do the same for someone I may dislike if I feel the charge is invalid, or politically motivated. Though, if the general public still felt some action was needed, I would take it.

2. I can't say I have any plans. It's rather difficult to get people to participate in something they don't care about, or find rather dull. Short of forcibly shoving such matter down a citizen's throat, there's not much one can do.

3. Experience may the word. I've been the DG bench before, and have a good idea of what I'm doing.

Besides, no one else is running. :p
