Generous freshman would like to rule the world, see White House painted pink
WILDCAT: So you want to be a big business woman?
RODRIGUES: Yes, that would be nice.
WILDCAT: I agree. Women need to rule this world.
RODRIGUES: I wouldn't mind doing that actually.
WILDCAT: What's the first thing you would do as president?
RODRIGUES: That's a difficult question.
WILDCAT: Yes, I know. I often lay awake at night wondering what I might ask the next day. But, I think that I would paint the White House pink or something, just to be non-conventional.
RODRIGUES: I think that wouldn't be bad, actually.
WILDCAT: It's definitely a statement. Although it could be the wrong statement. So is there any specific bill or law that you would have passed? Like, making every third Thursday national hug-a-pig day?
RODRIGUES: I think maybe we could do something for the tuition because it's really high.
WILDCAT: That's so noble. So you'd grant more money for financial aid.
RODRIGUES: Yeah.
WILDCAT: So what if you found the seeds for a money tree? Would you share it with your friends or save it all for yourself?
RODRIGUES: I'd share it.
WILDCAT: You're a generous person. I would go on a shopping spree myself.
RODRIGUES: I'd share.
WILDCAT PHOTOGRAPHER: Hi. My name's Randy, if you ever find those seeds, let me know.
RODRIGUES: Sure. Absolutely. It's like first come, first served.
WILDCAT: Then I'm next in line.
RODRIGUES: Do you want to join?
WILDCAT: Would you rename money if you were president? Maybe call it Christina bucks?
RODRIGUES: I haven't exactly thought about it.
WILDCAT: Now's a good time.
RODRIGUES: I think it would be cool if my face was, publicized everywhere.
WILDCAT: Maybe on one bill you could have your elbow and on another your knee and people could collect them and put them together like a puzzle.
RODRIGUES: No, just my face is fine.
