"Unity" Results
For those who've read the latest whpr you may have seen that, through the unity process, the Top 4 Parties and those 6th Parties which participated have elected to support me for the Presidency of the eUnited States. First, I'd like to thank the parties and their members for the show of support, now I'd like to move on with this article, regardless of how the Unity election process works, until the 5th, I'm still campaigning.

😁
Regarding this, several people have noticed that "unity" elections this month had a very low turnout. This isn't surprising, nor as some people would have you believe, indicative of an elite cabal. Rather it's the result of a highly non-competetive election with few candidates appearing on each party's ballot. Still, it's something that needs to be improved, the new form of unity, while a step forward, needs to be implemented better. I'm not going to say much, as Unity measures will always be a Party prerogative, but I intend to oversee vast improvement in the implementation, until we hopefully get to the point where it's no longer necessary.
So, now that that's out of the way, let's move on to what I was really came here to say
😁
Oh, and one more thing, I'd recommend reading my running mate Othere's article, it's excellent and a sign to come of the quality of my administration.
Cooperation and Communication
Exciting right?
America is a rainbow. Which, normally, sounds like a good thing, but not so much when it means Serbia and pals have set up shop in our eCountry. Driving them out will be a challenge, but before we can even start on that we need to do something much simpler. We must improve the communication and cooperation between all parts of our country. Earlier this month we saw a clash between the government's NSC and the group AIM in the form of AlexJ's article, accusing AIM of working against the government while AIM maintains they set prios and followed the strategy of the government. I have not been a part of their exchanges this past month, logs I have been shown favor the latter train of thought but it truly is unimportant. It is the attitude of separation and alienation between a large group of American citizens and their government that is the problem, and that is what I aim to heal during my term. Our wipe may have been due to overwhelming force, however, we will never recover if our country isn't unified. Before we can speak of controlling our own 50 states and more we must first get to the point where we can fight for them together. I don't see a better time to talk about this than the 4th
😁Seems fitting. As many of you noticed, I have DMV listed as my NSC chair in my cabinet article. This is for a few reasons, one is his demonstrable ability, which truthfully is primary, but another is legitimizing the role of the group which he is a part of in government. There is no separation, we don't work for different entities, we play for the same country, the eUS, that much is clear. And I look forward to working with him, in all aspects of NSC, improving America's strategy and communication. Alone that won't be enough, and those of you who know me will vouch, and those who don't will have to take my word for this, but during my term it will be a priority to coordinate our strategy and keep everyone, including the public, aware of what their government is doing for them, what the government's strategy is, and where we want them to be fighting.
Murrica and stuff
😁
Another issue that will define the coming month is the handling of USAF. That too has garnered controversy this past month, and it will be a focus of mine this coming month. I'm not naive enough to believe there is an easy fix that I can write about and force under the guise of progress. The most I can say is that I have the utmost confidence in my Secretary of War pick, Deificus, and that from our preliminary conversations we've had, I believe that this next month will be one in which the eUS' fighting forces is reorganized and made to be as efficient and effective as we've come to expect.
And the Media
There's another aspect of communication that you've come to expect and which I believe could use some improvement. That between the government and her citizens, that emanating from the Presidents paper and the White House Press Release. I've been Secretary of Media a few times, and believe me I understand the importance. My Secretary of Media will be responsible for at least 2 if not 3 White House Press reports a week, that's a promise. But I understand it's not just a matter of quantity, it's a matter of transparency. This communication functions best, as it did under Vanek, when the President's paper is always in use, keeping the country up to speed with what the President is doing for America. That's something I admired and definitely will do my best to emulate. As President, Goodbye Blue Monday will be constantly publishing, a new article every few days. And every week on eNPR you'll see me, answering questions and discussing what I'm doing. Point is, you'll see me; people often get the false impression the executive isn't working because of how little of their work is out there, in the top 5 or elsewhere; this will not be the case.
It's true
America Abroad
If nothing else, this next month will be interesting, and that applies to our foreign situation as well. Our countries wipe has as much to do with TWO's strength as it does with CoT's lack of coordination and success. I'm not saying that CoT is the wrong fit for America, I'm saying that CoT needs to get their shit together. SCs need to be active, RWs need to be coordinated, CoT needs to learn, once again, to work together, or else this is hopeless. I've talked to a few members of the alliance, a few country Presidents, and I've seen that this alliance has a lot of potential, and now I look forward to seeing it in action. It's easy to forget, but America is far from alone. As Tenshibo's last article proved, Mexico is there for us, even Canada has been. CUB, too, shows that, if anything, we have friends, willing to aid us in ATO and on the battlefield. The war with TWO though proves one thing, we depend on these allies, and when we all work together (see, the beginning of Naz's term as CoT MC) we succeed despite the odds, and when that coordination falls apart we fail. It would be a mistake to take from this, as some have, that big alliances are doomed. Or that CoT has forsaken us. We have friends, and when we work together, we succeed, and this war is far from over.
So, tomorrow
On the 5th, when you're voting for President, vote for me. I won't lie, we've had a tough month, and we're in for another, but I wouldn't be running if I didn't think we had it in us to recover and achieve great things. The night is always darkest just before the dawn, or something like that. Let's show the eWorld what we're capable of~
So, lend me your hand America, let’s go on an adventure together, let’s make America great,
Save the Date, and consider a PROTEUS PoTeUS~

Good luck.
Ok... How is it possible to be not elected now
His "mood music" link is said to be malicious, maybe he'll get banned?
WHere did you saw this? It is link to its previous article 😉

America is glorious.
where is america? can't find it on teh map
Actually, where are the "Unity" Results????????
Who was on the ballots in each party?
Where can we find a valid statement about the voting from any Unity commissioner????
So Paul, you are speaking about transparency.....
The WHPR I linked had results. Feds had me, Clift and Sepo. WTP had me and Abstain. AMP had Largo and I. USWP only had me. The reasons for people being off ballots has to do with when the parties primaries started (which has been constant in each party since long before unity, and is available for all to see). None of this is hidden.
Maybe you should read again the meta-popular-voting-dung-law to realize that it was not done right?
There was NO valid end result with a total of votes, WTP had a foreigner on the ballot and there is no result how the 6th parties have/have not voted!
It is safe to say that YOU ARE NOT EVEN A VALID UNITY CANDIDATE!
But that should not be any of your concern, atmof you ARE already the next PotUS, right?!
WTP had Paul Proteus with any vote otherwise counting as "abstain". The Unity process as written by the t4 pps occurred, so I don't understand your second point, as for shortcomings in the process, I've already addressed that. And no, this is a campaign article; I, too, wait for the 5th for in game changes.
You don't get the point, now do you?
If it is a popular vote, ONE of the 6th parties could've had ONE candidate getting MORE votes then you've got from all T4.
There is no report or statement by any Unity commissioner!
There is no total of votes with a list of all parties that have participated!
No wonder that the needle on my bulls***-monitor goes wild!
It was done poorly by the Party Presidents. No reflection on any of the candidates though. In fact I am skeptical the executive should be involved in the first place and certainly the candidates shouldn't have a hand in running the thing. Proteus was the only strong credible candidate this cycle. Good or bad, he doesn't have the wear all of the political class' errors and screw ups. Starting tomorrow, however, he will be expected to lead. I'm waiting to judge and remembering that Team eUSA likes execution (one way or another).

Meh
Good Luck Paul.

Could Zeng be a ATO infiltrator?
lol
Same old song and dance,
whatever, never mind.
Those seem like quite sweet words, but they also lack substance. It's just basically "I know it will be a rocky road, but we will make it in the end", which holds no value whatsoever, since everyone would say that.
Oh well, just my 2 cents.
Happy 4th of July and good luck!
Same old song and dance,

nothing about the economy?
we must raise import taxes!
the number of foreginers selling raws in america is absurd! i guess maybe most of the top player who become president have lots of factories and very few raw production buildings. however. when foreginers sell raws to americans. americans are trading the usd which is good for building more raw production buildings. for raws themselves. so americans because of the low import taxes are trading the ability to make raw for raws. we are reducing the growth rate of americans. like somone said 90% of the cost of a wep is the raws. so if raws are being bought foreginly, we must then sell 90% of our weps to foreginers to break even.
Economics ... in eRep? Doesn't exist :3 Also ... Income Tax is determined Congress, not President.
hm, well then that is very disappointing that the congress and the president do not talk to each other. i guess there is no system of check and balances. well then do you know a list of all the current congress members or where i could find them
Community Tab -> Elections -> Select Congress Elections -> Select June 2013 = List of all congressmen currently active.

To hell with the "P"... WTF happened to all of the "S's"????
Voted! Good Luck! 🙂
I feel somewhat scared that it's an Nth president in a row that features anime pictures. Though, still better than afa.
It's not really anime, yeah it's a graphic novel written by a Canadian 😁
There was an eCitizen named Proteus,
Who thought he should like to be POTeUS.
He gathered his cabinet,
All while his opponents met,
Serbia's attempts are erroneous.
