no, dude. it's not. the platform statements of other candidates read
something like "I will bring the campus more free food." this is different
than "If _you_ vote for me, I will write you down in my little list and
give _you_ free stuff."
it doesn't read anything like any of the other candidates promises, nor is
it anything like a 'tax cut.' it doesn't matter if he gives you the money
before or after the elections. and it doesn't matter where the money comes
from.
it's plain and simple bribery, folks.
