[SC4CP] A Vision for the Future

Day 2,748, 21:50 Published in USA USA by SColbert
Hello Nation,

In this article I will lay out my platform for the eUS’ continued success. I will also introduce you to my choices for Vice President and Chief of Staff. I believe this nation deserves a winning strategy and continued success. I think we can do better, and here is how I plan to do that.

USAF

The USAF needs active leadership. The sense of community in the MU has become non-existent, and corps need to be whipped into action. As one of the planks of eUS diplomacy, and defense we cannot afford to allow the USAF to fall into anymore despair. Action needs to be taken, but not just throwing supplies and money at the problem.

USAF needs pride once again. It needs leadership that will actively engage its members. It needs organization. Which is why I am happy to announce that in my administration Hale26 will serve as CO of the USAF. He is not afraid to tell the hard truths that are needed to fix the MU, and I am very confident in his abilities. The USAF can do better, and this is a major step in addressing the issues it faces.

Media

One of the most important aspects in this game is the media module. It allows players to communicate ideas, and for the government to inform its citizens. I think the Media Dept needs to be reenergized. I look back fondly on the media campaigns that led up to military conflicts. We were able to create real excitement through the proper trolling, and articles. This should be a very fun aspect of the game, and I feel it is currently being underutilized.

As president I will have a WHPR out at a minimum of twice a week, with a target of three issues per week. The paper will cover the important topics of conversation facing our country, as expected. It will also serve to get citizens more interested in their government and what is going on abroad and at home. I think this is something recent issues has been lacking, and I think we can do better. Wars will be covered with the proper amount of trolling, and general shit talking that should be a pillar of any fun war.

Foreign Affairs

Not since TWO have we seen such a unipolar world, with Asteria at the top. Under the genius of Wild Owl we have been able to create stability, wealth and peace for the eUS. He has been able to put us in a place where something like the summer invasion of 2013 looks to be impossible. I am very thankful for this work he has done that has kept us so safe.

The world is changing though. A unipolar order will not last indefinitely, and the cracks in Asteria will start to show, if they haven’t already. We need to prepare for this, and also keep our ties with Pacifica strong. In order to do this we must remain vigilant, and adaptable. Complacency is not an option. For too long we have been willing to coast by. The next few months will be testing, and we need to place ourselves in the proper position in order to whether the storm.

Domestic Affairs

I have been very happy with the job that BeachBunny is doing in Interior. I wish to continue that activity, but under new leadership. I will be announcing a new Secretary of Interior in my next article, as she will be busy in her new role. As President the Depts of Interior, and Education will have articles in “First Steps” at all times, and have IRC staffed so that new players can be received by a helpful hand.

This will mean needing to hire more deputies, and getting more new people involved. This is an important aspect of my platform. I think we should be training tomorrow’s leaders. We can do better, and as president I will be aggressively courting new players to get more involved in their government. During my times as PP of USWP and Speaker of the House I made this a pillar of my work, and I hope to continue it as CP.

Now please join me in welcoming the next Vice President and Chief of Staff!

The Mike is an excellent addition to the team, and will make an awesome Vice President. He has great experience working in NSC and in the State Dept, as well as serving as Chief of Staff for Trekker. I am so grateful he decided to be my Vice President!

BeachBunny will be my Chief of Staff. She has been a great Speaker of the House, Secretary of Interior, and most recently PP of AMP. I know she will do a great job in this position as well.

Thank you for hearing me out. I think we can do better, and America needs a choice in this election. Now that you know my vision for our future I hope we work together to build it.

Please don’t forget to sign up to work in the White House!
