Region: Libertatem
I'm strongly against the idea of the Departments of Internal Affairs and State merging. It's a very bad idea. These two departments work on two very different things.
Post self-deleted by Smanatchenka.
CI expressed interest in the Board, should he decide that he would prefer to do that, Anhka will probably be his selected replacement as he is a strong Attorney General and has proven his ability.
By having both those merge, it may cause some chaos.
But they both have one set job that could easily be handled by three people.
Also, that was a good speech Pev.
Would it not be better, then, to leave them as they are?
We already have one man that looks over internal and foreign affairs, and even then he cannot do so without three advisors and a Board of five.
Indeed.
Er, four advisors.
Technically five if you count the vice-president, but in all honesty that position doesn't actually do anything anyways.
If it was that much of a bad idea, then I'll drop it.
Great speech Pev. I actually don't think anyone except Humph could replace you and do as well as you have. We all know I haven't agreed with you on everything but you were a GREAT president.
Aw, come on, I wanted to get more discussion than that.
But, seriously, it basically just makes the entire existence of the office itself pointless; why have one person looking over both foreign and internal affairs when he himself needs advisors to do thus and help him advise the president? Yes, it'd make things cleaner, but I think it would just be a lot easier on both the Managers and their Deputies if the two offices remained independent.
In totally unrelated news, I promise there will be a new RP coming up soon. I just need to figure out if I should do it through the NS forum or our offsite forums or something else.
I'd like to say Pev's retirement was a surprise, but, no, not really. I just wish more people knew beforehand so that we could collaborate on a surprise retirement party. He's served our region well.
These are some solid people for the positions you've picked out. I can attest to the ability of each in their respective fields, and am pleased that you would consider me for Attorney General because that would also permit me to run for the Board as well. There are many in this region who understand the seductive properties of power and seek not to be in its presence for too long, but I understand that the responsibilities that come with it are also a humbling experience. These responsibilities may be burdens, but they're character-building - you can consider me the man who will never retire until he quits outright (and such a day would be a long way away).
Take it from someone who has worked in both; they're not nearly as different as they appear.
I got a room for him in the old folks' home a month ago.
Nobody knew about it. Surprise.
Naw, just kidding. I got you a beach house, Pev.
It's been great to serve on the Board with you as President, Pev. I look forward to working alongside you as an advisor to Humpy if the people should have him.
I'm glad you're on Board and approve of my choices, CI. Pevvania came to me a little while ago saying that it was time for him to leave, so I've had some time to think about these people. There are people that I wish I could keep on, like Minerva, but I saw Pev's work in the War department, and I wouldn't want anyone else leading our forces. TNUS has proven to be very well-versed in the workings of the Internal department. And Hallo Island is in the Diplomat Corps and has proven himself to maintain the ability to represent this region. And, I mean, come on, CI of course. I've already been questioned about my proposal of Hallo Island, but I answer this with one statement: When it comes to the serving of the region, party banners shall not wave, only the flag of Libertatem.
Get it?

My first act, if elected President, shall be to convert the Presidential Mansion into a brothel. The income will be used to invest in private companies who will be commissioned to build an Orphanage.
...
YES DISTRIBUTE IT PRIVATELY!
I will be unavailable for the next few hours. Like I said Mien and Pev know everything about my campaign, so you can ask them questions. If you stump them, I will get back to you later. If asked a question, I will answer to the best of my ability.
And before anyone asks me about the campaign banners which, yes, I did; and yes, I have completed; No, they will not become public until August.
Okay, I lol'd there
Fun fact: There is a room in the Raven's Palace (the mansion occupied by the President of Miencraft, formerly by the Emperor of Miencraft) that is used as a publicly accessible brothel. It's directly on your right as soon as you enter. It looks like a closet because it is. If you turn the lights on in that closet you'll see a door, and beyond that door there are stairs that lead downwards into a brothel. It used to be a wine cellar.
No offense meant CI, but the IA job has changed quite a bit since you held it.
Thank you all for the kind words. Some of you may have forgotten that I was actually the Manager of Military Affairs before becoming President. I would graciously accept the role, and would continue to work closely with the higher officials in the Department of War in continuing our crusade and taking it to new levels.
Now for some non-NationStates political commentary.
I think the open carriers who are showing their metal in stores are really stupid. They have every right to be open carrying (unless the property they're on prohibits it) but doing this is really harming the gun rights movement and making 2nd Amendment supporters look like jackasses.
Y'know, when I move out of Liberal Heaven, I'm probably gonna just go get a rifle and just walk around with it all nice and visible and everything just to screw with everyone who doesn't want me doing that.
Because, hey, how do you tell someone who clearly has a gun out that they shouldn't be going around with a gun?
Hello every people, United States (Not America :P) Is eliminated, so, DEUTSCHLAND WILL DO IT!!!!!!!!! WE CAN!!!!!!! OOHOHOHOHOOHOHOHOH
Brasiiiiiil, Decime que se sienteeee
teneeeeeer en casa a tu papáaaaaa!
Te juroooo que aunque paseen los añooooooooooossss
Nuuuuuncaaaa nos vamos a olvidaaaarrrr
que el diego te gambeteó!
Que cani te vacunó!
que estás llorando desde Italiaaa hasta hoyyyy
A Messi lo vás a ver
la copa nos va a traer
Maradona es más grande que Pelé!!!!
If the store has a problem with it then fine. Otherwise I'll open carry where the hell I please. (I can too, my state allows open carry). But I will definitely protest (peacefully, likely by boycott) if they kick me out of the store for open carry then allow an armed officer inside, shiny badges don't grant extra rights.
None taken; I've noticed (and voted for) many of these changes, and still believe that it follows a similar structure - interestingly, that structure is akin to a real-life managerial position.
Depends on the customs of the area it happens in, I think. People should definitely be more considerate about that kind of thing, whichever party they are.
Indeed.
Hi everybody, GID is in the hospital tonight after vomiting profusely all over everything. He has a very high white blood cell count and possibly appendicitis, so he may not be able to be on the jury.
Ouch. Thats not good.
Yikes.
My bro had appendicitis. Itr wasnt good.
Oh I'm sorry.
Very sorry to hear that.
I wonder who will run against humpy.........
I think RRRG said that he would run as an Independent and I imagine Hallo or Anhka will probably make a go at it. But I don't know. I will just stick to keeping to my own campaign. That other stuff isn't any of my business.
If only you knew....
I think I'll be able to do it.
I will run against humpy.
Youd be in very high competition for my vote. I think you already beat RRRG and Humph in my books though.
Humpheria is an esteemed nation, and I think the next Presidential term will be his time to shine. I can't think of very many citizens here who could beat him in an election, aside from the incumbent (a dedicated President who is retiring from the Presidency) and myself (a long-time resident who expressed interest in the past, but not the present).
Libertatem, where we put the resident in President...I don't know.
Woah what how are you even on the internet right now
Congratulations on your candidacy. With you being the other candidate, the region can't go wrong.
Not very surprising.
Whatever the case, he's brave. That's what I call dedication.
Grandma's phone/iv painkillers.
What's that supposed to mean? Why so cryptic?
Sorry to hear about your hospitalization.
Nothing to important at the time.
That's alright. I'll be fine maybe.
How assuring.
This will be what i hope will be my Administration if i win.
Vice President: The Simply a of Lack there of
Manager of Military Affairs: The Libertatem President of Pevvania
Manager of Internal Affairs: The Morrissey of Hallo Island
Manager of Foreign Affairs: The Free Democratic Union of Albenia if he gets unbanned, it will be Ankha if he is not
Attorney General: The Industrious Philosopher of Conservative Idealism in Libertatem
Why do you do that? I'm starting to think you do it just to get to me. Is it the same thing we were talking about earlier or is it something else?
Nope. Different thing. very different
Good group. Look's like Pev and CI are set. Wish I was one of them, huh.
Well, why be so secretive?
Because I dont want to tell you..(cuz I dont want to get hated on for it.)
Yeah in this election even. I don't agree on a lot of things with Humph however he's the best man for the job.
If you're going to be hated on for saying it now, you would probably be hated on for saying it later, as well.
True, but then Ill be ok with beig hated on for it.
Indeed. Many of the other potential candidates are pretty good, though, but Humph has my vote.
I don't think I will ever understand your secretive personality. Secrets don't make friends, Anhk. But question: the way you phrased that it's probably some dirt on me to hurt my campaign or something. Why would you get hated on? Or is it something like you running for President or going back to the UCR or something?
Thank you both, I really appreciate it. Especially you TTA, it means a lot in the way forgiveness and such.
Oh it's nothing.
Should my administration be elected by the people of the Republic, I shall seek, with consent from the Cabinet and Board, full support of the super-region merger of the IRU and various other allies. Thoughts?
What the hell even
Like, them moving here?
No as in us creating a new region to accommodate the foreigners.
sounds good.
I feel like referring to them as "foreigners" would not be productive..
Truth hurts.
In honesty they are.
Just no religious regions, because I might kill them all.
Humpheria has my full tyrannical support for presidency. I'd make a speech, but Humpys actions do all the speaking for me. Good luck everyone.
You want to kill religious people?
I don't mean letting them here or moving with them, I mean providing logistically and moral support for their endeavor.
Well, thanks. But, you're still going to be involved right?
Not necessarily, but if that is what they require, I'm prepared to help this region's friends.
Only the ones that are annoying about it. *twiddles thumbs*
As a critic, sure xP
Well, yes, to some degree. If situations change I may run for the board again one day.
Ah you said merger so it sounded like combining regions into one.
I guess so
what is the date of the election anyway?
The term begins September First.
We aren't. Some of our smaller allies are merging into a Federation. CI is heading it up.
Well, I hope that you don't go away.
Ah okay. That makes me feel better about that situation.
Nah, I'm not that easy to get rid of. Lol
Support and advice would be accepted, yes. Participation is not required.
I need some help. About ten minutes ago, my computer started running slow. Then my chrome browser randomly closed. I re-opened it and it took awhile to open it. And I have no idea why, but now I don't have NS++. I'm back to normal and it won't let me re-download it.
try restarting your computer.
That didn't work.
Scan with Malwarebytes or something.
Might be the result of a virus. Run your antivirus software and see if it picks up anything.
Step by step we are loosing nations. In less than a month we lost about 15 members, or about 12% of ours.
Maybe the board can approve a bill to make a recruitment officer to manually recruit people.
