[DMV4CP] A Treatise on Nationalism and Leadership

Day 2,140, 17:01 Published in Canada Canada by DMV3


Is there a place for nationalism in eRepublik? What does it mean to be eCanadian? What is leadership and how does it relate to eRepublik? These are all things I have asked myself over the course of my time as your President, and my answers to these questions are the reason I stand before you today asking you to reelect me as your President.

I do not believe nationalism has a place in eRepublik, I don't believe the Canadian people have been best served in the past by electing the best "Canadian." What I do believe in is following the rule of law as established in the Constitution and laws of our Nation. I believe we are judged as a nation by how we conduct ourselves with our friends and our enemies. And most of all I believe leadership is the ability to make decisions based on what is in front of you as opposed to conducting a poll and leading from behind.

If you think I'm not Canadian enough, don't vote for me. If you think I'm not nationalist enough or subservient enough, then don't vote for me because I can not change that to get elected. Over the course of this term I believe I have proven my ability to make the right decisions in the face of strong opposition, I have proven that I can make choices that while politically difficult for me are in the best interest of the majority of Canadians.

This term we joined Circle of Trust, lowered taxes, and built closer relations with the US. All of these decisions while causing an uproar with my opposition are extremely popular with the majority of Canadians and are the right direction for Canada. I have also kept in close contact with the Spanish government and have begun negotiations to take back our remaining regions. This is my record and this is why you should reelect me your President.

A reelection campaign is mostly about the incumbent, his record, and accomplishments. My opponents know they can not attack my accomplishments, so instead they attack my character. They insinuate I'm a PTOer, they claim I'm not interested in what Canadians want, but the fact is my record speaks for its self. I have served honorably and lead this country in the direction the majority of Canadians desire, and for this reason I would like to ask for your support in your party primaries and in the upcoming election on the fifth.
