Greetings and Salutations, My Fellow Americans and Ajay Gipper Hut:

I first want to congratulate Molly Emma on becoming Country resident in a landslide election. Now I hope Molly Emma can pull the eUSA out of the slump of occupying Canada and lead the nation in a righteous direction. I recommend the freedom of our longtime allies, Brazil.

Be a leader; not a follower, Molly Emma!

That being said, I've got some information on the longest continuously running party in the eUnited States, the SFP: Socialist Freedom Party!

In just a few days, SFP, like every other party in eRepublik, will be heading to the polls (pressing the button) to elect a new Party President. Of course, I am running for that office, but this month... there is a twist.

With LAP merging into WTP, the SFP Revolutionary Committee got together and discussed in our forums with the general membership about packing our bags and heading over to the party the LAP members are tossing aside. I've been in talks with a member of LA Leadership, Oblige; and they have no problem with us coming in to claim their dead. So in a few days... hopefully at least, SFP will be ranked above the old AFA in a new home. SFP members should keep a close eye on their message inbox for more details or feel free to message me in game if you have any questions or concerns.

SFP members will be happy to know that I have worked out a deal with the new Top Five party, The Black Sheep Party, securing the SFP at least one spot for Congress candidates. Here's how it is going to work.

After SFP elects it's new Chairman, he or she will open a Call for Congress Candidates in the SFP Forums. Those interested in becoming a Congressman will reply to the post to declare their intent in representing the SFP in Congress, including a manifesto. After the new SFP Chairman is in office (16th of the month), s/he or a representative from the SFP Revolutionary Committee should open a Call for Congress Candidates in the forums. On the 20th of every month, the Call thread shall be locked and a new thread opened for voting on the candidates. Voting will last until the 22nd of the month. The member who receives the most votes in the Congress Candidate election will be the SFP Congress Candidate and then leave the party and join the Black Sheep Party and candidate for Congress. After the election, the candidate leaves BSP and returns to SFP to serve as the SFP Congressional Delegate. If the SFP is given more candidate slots with Black Sheep Party, they will be filled in order of votes received in the Candidate election. Any ties in the Congress Candidate Election will be broken by a vote of the SFP Chairman.

☞ IMPORTANT: Individuals seeking to represent the SFP in Congress should remember that Black Sheep Party is doing SFP a favor and any negative issues between an SFP delegate and Black Sheep Party can result in a suspension of up to six months from the Congress Candidate elections. Don't be a tool.

I'm excited at the direction that SFP seems headed. There are still some things that we - just like any other party - need to work on, but when all is said and done, SFP is stronger now that it has been in a long time.

And on that note... I'm out!
