Nation of Israel, we have just suffered a terrible loss, Avner has been brutally murder. Do you really want your next King to be a murderer? Yoav, David’s general assassinated our beloved general, Avner? Since David did not even punish Yoav, they must have been working together to try to kill Avner. Whose side is David even on?

Is David an enemy or a friend? Do you really want a traitor and a person who murdered one of your leaders to be your next King? While Avner was not only the best general of his time, he was an excellent leader, who believed in me as his King. We can not let Avner die in vain. After so much he has done for this nation, we can not give up now. We must continue what Avner has started, we must complete his goal, to continue the legacy of Shaul. I, the son of Shaul will be able to do just that. Shaul was a large factor in making this Nation as great as it is today. He was the first King to ever unite this magnificent Nation. In addition, Shaul was a skilled military leader, and taught me to be the same. When the Luchot were stolen, it was my father, Shaul, who returned the Luchot and saved Israel. Furthermore, when Yavesh Gilad was in trouble, my father rapidly prepared an army, and defeated Nachash, the King of Ammon. If you want this great legacy of military success to continue, I should be your next King, not David. Finally, like my father, I am determined and devoted to your success as a nation. My father, even with the biggest of obstacles, would
never cease to be a great leader. This dedication to the nation of Israel will continue when I am King. I would like to reiterate, if you want a murderer or traitor as your next King, you should chose David, but if you want a great military leader, a devoted and zealous leader, and a leader who will bring you success, chose me as your next King.
