Mood music (something other than rap this time)
well, where to begin?
Glove is president.....
I, unlike the majority, was not expecting Glove to win the election. I was sitting on team Civil Anarchy, and honestly thought that CA would take the election easily. I could not have been more wrong.
Now for some history, from my perspective (consider it BS if you will)
So as you all know, there has been an ongoing revolution in the United States. A large faction of players rising up against the "elitists" that have held the power in this country for quite some time. I, as a relatively new player, have found myself intrigued by this concept. Let me begin by saying this, I have played eRep for about 5 months, have never been in congress, have never served in any executive positions, and have never been Party President. Yet according to multiple other players, I am part of the long time ruling class of this nation. Simply because I believe differently, I was labled as part of the problem.
That is the image that I was given of this "revolution". A group so bent on their own Ideas, that they would disregard anyone that had a different opinion. I slowly grew further and further away from this movement, and anything that they supported. I had found myself disagreeing with ideas, simply because a certain person had proposed them.
So now if we fast-forward to the August Presidential elections, we had Glove running against Civil Anarchy. Glove was backed by the RLC (which has shown itself to be a PTO threat of massive proportions), and nearly every recognisable leader of the anti-elitist movement. While Civil found support from the Feds, USWP, iNCi, and a few smaller parties.
I campaigned vehemently against Glove. In my mind, assosiating with the people he did automatically made him an idiot, and a threat. I used every chance I had to shout for CA, or to come against Glove. Glove won by a close margin, and I all but lost hope for our country.
A large group of eAmericans considered Glove winning the CP election, the final straw in the PTO of eUSA. When his Cabinet was announced, it included Chickensguys (an enemy of the state), and many....shall we call them, Questionable choices.
Then something amazing happened. As it seemed, Glove went back on all deals that he had with RGR/GCL/PtH I-IV/Ajay, and Chickensguys Took power in the RLC away from Ajay.
Then on top of that wonderful news, the DoD orders are being updated again, and the Pony Express is open again. Two things that had fallen by the wayside in the last two administrations.
This is not something that I expected. Glove has surprised me this time.
Therefore, I will put aside my personal preferences, and give the Glove administration a chance, and I will urge all of you to do the same. We do not need more division. Let's wait and see what happens, before we try to tear this administration down.
Just one man's thoughts.

"Simply because I believe differently, I was labled as part of the problem."
The similarities between real life & the game become more visible at times, but the pattern is always there, just below the surface.
"I campaigned vehemently against Glove."
I read a lot of what was said during the election, by many players. Your voice was one of the few who could be characterized as speaking honestly & with class, never deviating into the area of mud slinging, yellow journalism.
Kudos o7

you are a realist.
many people just blame.
voted and read
Being an exPotus and somewhat privy to internal discussions in every Cabinet (if I want to listen that is) I can safely say that while I was more vocal about being anti-Glove prior to the election, I have privately recanted those statements to Glove and his cabinet.
Glove has a good shot at success, we need to follow the thread.
Vote + Sub good reads
I'll give him a chance. I mean others voted him in, ofc, and he has a mandate to uphold.

Stuff, stuff, yada, yada...
I just hope the Canada thing is over and that Glove turns a deaf ear to their begging. We were wrong when we attacked them. They were wrong when they tried to teach Evry a lesson. Both sides were assholes. Let's be done with it and move on.
Here's hoping we do an Air Strike on someone that's been impossible for us to get to. And do something fun for a change. (Real fun, not this fake shit that makes us squabble.)
just curious, why you think that you got to choose between 2 main candidates in any election campaign if you're already speaking about being or not part of elites ? Don't you ever think that both main candidates might be somebody's else puppets ? If you are truly interested to not be "labeled" like you said previously ,you should think a bit further then only take a side of 2 main choices that's my advise to you cause often main candidates are just pawns of these elites ,think about it ; )
vs & shout.
Impressive article. Worthy of a shout I guess.
There are lots of good people here whom associate with very dodgy friends. Sometimes our friends seem great, then we find they are someone else's mortal enemy.
tbh, all I'd like to see is a little honesty in leadership, and some kick-a** American action, no matter who delivers it.

Agreed with Grainne
well said Big C

read this informative article http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/the-pony-express-day-1-724-2099043/1/20
Good read ~ interesting politics you eMericans have.
This article is an obvious ploy by the ruling elites to attempt to curry favor back into their court.
Unbelievable.
And of course I am joking.
Glove is love, baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more!!! por favor, nena no llores, no llores, por mi amor, POR FAVOR! NENA NO LLORES, NO LLORES, POR MI AMOR...

Glove is Love!
""A large faction of players rising up against the "elitists" that have held the power in this country for quite some time""
You mean EDENites?
"Yet according to multiple other players, I am part of the long time ruling class of this nation. Simply because I believe differently, I was labled as part of the problem."
That's a feeling I've had more than once and imo a real problem for new players who aren't able to find their own e-identity without being bullied around by politfags.
Regarding this administartion. sure, give them a chance. No politican is any much worse than the next one. Nor any better, for that matter.
I stand ready to AIRSTRIKE swedes.
Top Gun Top Gun Top Gun!

Great article.
One of things people are freaking out about are the PTOers, and the expanding market for people to use them for their own gain, not necessarily specifically about Glove.
We can't pretend that this problem doesn't exist.
