Politician from party C:
I have just secured millions of dollars in funding from the central government bean counters, but instead of using it on expensive pre-packaged software, we will use it more wisely. We will also provide a more open and diverse education system, making our kids both more knowledgeable and adaptable to varying environments, but also generate local jobs, making our economies and communities stronger. Not only that, but we still end up saving money and stay competitive in the long run.

Thinking Voter: ???

And exactly where is party C's candidate's constituency? Fantasyland?

My snarly comment isn't meant as an attack against lacostej's, but rather at the sheer unlikelihood of his/her scenario. It would certainly be nice, though, to have candidates like party C's.
