High School student sworn in as Mayor

I think this is pretty neat. He must have worked his ass off to get this spot. Its nice to see this type of action taking place.
 
Looks like he may have bigger plans in store for the future.

I wouldn't write him off just because of his age...

Maybe not, but I'd write him off because he's still a senior in High School. Being mayor or a student, one of them is going to suffer this year. Yeah, it's neat and all, but it probably would've been better for him to at least finish High School. Maybe get some kind of minimal degree in business or law.
 
One would think having a high school diploma (or GED) would be a requirement to run for office.
 
Not at all. Many politicians in the early days barely had any formal education. I wouldn't write him off either, I have seen many bright and mature young people come up with much better governing ideas than thier elders. It's all laid out so we'll just have to see what happens.
