I think it is unfortunate that you chose silence as your platform, |

Richard. In an election with so many options, expecting people to ask you |

why you stood means you want others to do work just to get to know your |
4 |
option. That is neither fair nor scalable. |

The result represents that. If you do something or want something, please |
7 |
understand that it is your job to do express yourself, not the community's |
8 |
job to pull from you. |

Unspoken expectations are most likely to lead to disappointment, I suppose |
