Region: Libertatem
Provided I remain Manager then.
Awesome! Thanks.
Your welcome. Understand that is conditional, no more voter fraud.. 'mkay?
Ok. Will do.
What age did you guys get into politics?
12
How about your self?
11.
I was born with a copy of No Treason I'm my hand
11 over here. Been in the game for eight years.
Thanks to all that are voting and endorsing me in this Board election. I will vote for what is right every time. I refuse to make decisions based on prejudice, unlike others who probably do(not saying you Amarican). Let's fight this war, but let's fight it right. But let's fight it intelligently folks. We are growing so let's keep hittin' them dang commies hard!
Also, congrats to Lack for winning his seat back.

Cool.
The duty of a politician is to serve the public. I promise to follow my principles but do what's popular when the people demand it. I am a servant and you the people are my masters!

I got into politics at age 8.
Do I win?
Wut?!?!
How!
While you should stand by your principles, the members of the Board are there to voice the people's concern, not their own.
Yes, dear.

The magic of parents.
Were they Liberal or Conservative?

I LOL at your ass kissing skills. Doing what's popular does not mean it's right. By this logic, Amarican will simply do what everyone wants him to do to stay in office. A mere political puppet for the majority's cause. Does that sound right to you guys? I think not. But it's not like it matters because Humph and Muh are only not voting for me because we got into a fight the other day, let's be real, and NeoCon isn't because I called him out on his blatant arrogance and just being overly aggressive a while back, so whatevs. And they'll all try to rationalize that statement all they can but don't believe their lies. I block you out, I can't see the haters!

Vote for me so we can do what is right, not what's popular.
And sorry for all the deleted posts I kept messing up the formatting to bold "right" and then I found a typo.
right
:)
You should know, after being on the Board so long, what is popular with the people is what you must vote for. You represent the people' hopes and dreams, not your agenda.
I can't speak for Muh, but I voted for Amarican because I like what he has to say. He is trying to be the voice of the people, you are saying that you aren't going to listen to the people you serve.
What the people say is what is right. You opinion is not how you govern in a representative position.
Hi guys, I'm back. Sorry for not being here, I've been out of the house for more than 12 hours straight. Anyone want to update me on things?
Campaigning and the poll is only supposed to be for one day, not two. Pres. elections are tomorrow.
Updated the flag to be a slightly less eye piercing shade of blue: http://i61.tinypic.com/sv0u9g.jpg
About the same color as the old. More details in my factbook.
Ok, I'll edit it if I can.
I like it.
The poll cannot be edited, and must either run its course or be erased and replaced.
I am no "Vox Populi." And what is the point of elected officials if you can't have your own agenda and try to do the things that you want to do? That doesn't make any sense! So should we have converted to socialism when TTA was here? I mean, that would be listening to the people right? Right? Yeah, thought so.
And never nor ever will I say I'm not going to listen to anyone. That is stupid. If government is to exist it should at least listen, which I do.
And again, I guess TTA would have been right since he was "the people" and since the people are right he would be right.
Your thoughts are weawy nice and all but they just don't work in a place with a government. It is impossible. I do what is objectively right to do and that is what everyone should do.
That's also really funny coming from the guy who wanted to ban TTA just because he didn't like him either. I though our opinion's should dictate our votes on bills or bans? Guess not.
What do you guys think?
I like the deeper shade of blue it looks good!
Up to Pev if he wants to slightly alter the flag. I just did it so the deep red and blue would be softer on the eyes. :)
No harm in a change for a while. So Humph, should I scrap the poll or move forward with it?
No, "the people" isn't one person. During the TTA fiasco, everyone but TTA wanted him gone, so that's how I voted. I'm not saying don't use decision-making skills, but you have to listen to the people. That one vote that you have is not yours, it is the people's and it wouldn't be right not to vote for your constituents.
I'd just scrap it and make it until tomorrow. We need to get the election on time.
Aw, but it was looking to be quite the battle. :(
I will be busy and out of the house for the entire day tomorrow. I will have time to neither campaign nor participate in the election. I'll postpone it to Saturday.
[sarcasm]Yes, Your Majesty.[/sarcasm] It's not like that's a law or anything.

They're rather libertarian, but I think I beat both of them out on that front over the years.
But, one person makes up "the people" and if we are to ignore one, then another day we'd ignore another and so forth. Your "for the people" ideals just don't work. And if my vote is not really mine, again, I ask why do we even have a Board? The Board is basically just the electoral college. Who needs either? Let alone a government anyways? Why not just we all vote on bills we all make up. Everyone's vote will be even and everyone's voice will be guaranteed to be heard. We're Libertarians anyways why do we keep growing government by passing bills like VEEP, that just doesn't make any sense.
Ok.
Well, the Board exist because we are a bicameral house.
Stop acting like real world policies work in a game. You can't be an anarchist (not saying Libertarianism is Anarchism, using an example) government in here, the government doesn't work in-game like that.
VEEP wasn't an expansion, we've already had this discussion.
You are a representative, you represent. That is what you do. SO, why do you campaign against that fact?
My thoughts exactly. And why I am voting for him, other than being pretty consistent on the war.
That's cool. You can vote for him if you want. Not trying to stop you.
Well, I'm off to the Floyd County GOP Lincoln Day Dinner. Hoping to get the Chairman's Award, but I don't know yet. Won't be on for awhile. Please keep your effigy-burning and character-destroying to a minimum.
I have a sudden urge to burn effigies.
*Tells me real world policies can't work in a game
is a Libertarian and often uses Libertarian policies*
------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Acts like we don't use real world policies
Libertatem has a bicameral house* AKA US Legislative, UK Legislative, etcÂ
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please point out to me where it says I am a representative of everyone's thoughts and not just an elected official. Well guess what? I'm just an elected official. I campaign against it because it is really silly for a region of LIBERTARIANS to have so much government.
Of whom?
My brain does not specify.
I didn't say it doesn't work completely. You just can't have an entire Libertarian system, game wasn't designed for it.
Again, read my first line. This game is entirely unlike the real world, I was just pointing out that you can't play this game with no government.
Nevermind, campaign how you want, I'm not even running. I'm not going to destroy an already sub-par relationship over something like this.
See you in a few hours, all.
This game isn't**** entirely unlike
This is an online game.
So real world ideals and ways of doing things can't happen on here? You guys aren't making any sense.
Of course they can, but this game isn't built to perfectly translate political ideologies here.
Speaking of VEEP, congratulations to Humpheria on its successful passage as the Sixth Amendment to the Constitution. I will codify it in the laws as soon as possible, hopefully tomorrow.
And also there is no law saying I have to hold the Presidential Election tomorrow. The Fourth Amendment says that "These Presidential elections are to fixed, and held for 3 days in the later part of every month before a new Presidential term begins."
I'm voting for Amarican for a couple of reasons.
1. Clearly he understands that he is too be representative of the people.
2. His stance on the war vs yours.
Lastly, I decided I would vote for Amarican BEFORE we had a debate. It's not personal RRG. I just think Amarican would be better suited for the job. That's not to say I thought you did a bad job at all. Your passionate and involved, but my views more closely match Amaricans. That's it.
I agree with Muh Internal Affairs Manager. Grimes is openly opposed to the war, something irreconcilable with my beliefs. American seems to be pro-war, and on top of that is energetic, loyal and enthusiastic to serve the region. I like the cut of his jib. It's fresh, and I like it. I think it's time for a change to Seat 3, so I'm voting Amarican.
I am for war but my policy would be to be a little more hesitant on who we target.
Oh my god. It's like a broken record. I have never been anti-war, EVER. Why does everyone think that? I have my reservations about the way it is conducted and yesterday, I was saying that it is basically pointless, but let's do it anyways.
Gee, my exact thoughts! Something I've been saying for a while now, but nobody listens to me. I feel like everyone just reads my posts and completely ignores the contents of said post unless they spot something they don't believe in. In which case, your memories seem to be spot on. It's really annoying guys.
You are pretty awesome.
Thank ya sir!
You're welcome.
:)
As long as this scar of a wall is permitted to stand, it is not the German question alone that remains open. It is the question of freedom for all mankind.
I keep going back to that speech. There's just something about it that's so amazing.
hello fair gentalmen.
Hi.
what going on here seems pretty busy?
Pres. Elections Friday.
cool
Yeah.
yeah
Welcome to Libertatem Be happy!
It sounded like you said Welcome to Libertatem and Be happy!
awwwwww shucks your making me blush.

Again, really hard to choose between the two candidates; I know both of them so well, and they'd both do really well in a government position.
The search of my national anthem is complete. :)
Evening, Libertatem.
G'night.
I apologize for apparently creating so much hostility. I digressed.
Got back from the dinner, and I am the recipient of the Indiana Republican Party Chairman's Award for Outstanding Excellence and Dedication. Hate to toot my own horn, but, toot toot.
They'd tolerate a Libertarian? Jk
All the Republicans hate me. :(
What they don't know doesn't hurt them. ;)
My mistake, I was referencing the ELECT Amendment and got the dates mixed up. I apologize.
Congrats! Your really encouraging me to join the LP of Michigan and volunteer..
You really should! You get a lot of connections. Tonight the President of the Indiana Senate announced a plan to petition for a Constitutional Convention to add term limits for congressmen and limit federal spending. I am psyched.
I am apart of the LPNJ, but I haven't volunteered or done anything yet. I believe they are the state party that moons policemen, so I am not sure if I even want to, lol. :x
My belief about politicians can be summed up in environmentalist terms: reduce, reuse (the good ones), and recycle.
"Hello there!
You are not usually active nor do I know you well so let me cut to the chase: I need your help.
The government of this region is primarily led by the Reagonist Libertarian Party. They will never admit it, but they seek to monopolize the region and keep a tight hold on it forever. I and fellow nations that stand against this really want to get them out of power and make it actually fair and fun to be in Libertatem. There is two things you can do right now to advance this plan:
1. Vote for The Objectivist Empire of Ronald Reagan and Rick Grimes on the regional poll right now for Board Seat 3.
2. Vote for The Political Joke of Hallo Island for president on Saturday, Sunday, or Monday.
It truly is a crime that they are basically holding this region at a dictatorship. You may not care too much. That is fine. All I ask for is your vote. What do you have to loose? Thanks for reading. Vote now!" - Ronald Reagan and Rick Grimes
If you are going accuse me of openly attempting to create a Libertarian Dictatorship, at least do it for all to see rather than attempting to do some shady backroom deals with people who aren't really active. I mean come on, I am honestly offended by this. The fact that you would hold my honor so cheaply and flat out lie to Libertatem Citizens because a faction of regional politics isn't supporting you is astounding. If there was any chance of me voting for you, ever, it is gone now. Not only have you attempted to influence two elections for personal gain, but you have done so in a less than respectable manner. You may have thought that I expected you to be unworthy, but I was actually writing a telegram to you to reconcile our differences. Nevermind that.
Got the same message on my fascist puppet Ameroff too.
