"I know what we need to do!" Megan looks up from the papers she was planning, excited that she has a plan, or at least the beginning of a plan. "We need to create the illusion of an investigation. We need to convince people that there has been serious misconduct and the best way to convince people of that is to make them believe that there an investigation going on. And thanks to the wonders of the internet this should be less of a problem, a couple tweets from the right accounts, a couple messages on Facebook and it will work." Megan has been working on this plan for a couple of hours and then it hit her all of a sudden.

"How do we do that without getting caught? The most important part of this is that we help fix the system, but we do it without ruining our chances at a future in politics?" Marc may be just as enthusiastic about this as his friends, but he is also the only one interested in becoming a politician and therefore wants to makes sure that nothing will ruin that future.

"We will use fake accounts, we have a big enough network of friends that we know what hashtags and things they follow, it is entirely possible to do this, and when it comes out that there is no investigation people will still believe that there was misconduct and demand an investigation."

"It's not a bad idea, it isn't an entire plan, but it is certainly the beginnings of one, and one that we can implement while we work to finish the rest of the plan, because really, we have to get started soon, otherwise there will be nothing that we can do. We are on a serious time restraint given the whole convention and election process." Sarah was the first to jump on board of this plan already thinking about what they can do.

"How about Megan and Marc work on creating the accounts and getting the followers needed to make a splash while Sarah and I keep trying to find a strong third party candidate to run?" Scott has always been more organized than his friends and therefore is usually better at the little details required for good plans.

"If you and Sarah could agree on a candidate to run then I am pretty sure that candidate would be elected by everyone, given how opposite you are." Marc just laughs at the idea that the two of them will be able to agree on a candidate.

"And that is the exact reason why the two of us should be the ones to try and find a candidate, because if we can agree then it would be the definition of a strong third party candidate." Sarah just glares at Marc.

"Okay guys let's get to work, Marc come on we have to create a whole bunch of accounts, Scott, Sarah we want a candidate by the end of the week if possible to give enough time to campaign effectively." Megan laughs at the look on everyone's face that she took back control from Scott so effectively.

And so the four friends separated and got down to work.
