Important note:
There was an error of some sort yesterday(bug, hack, I don't know atm), but because of it, I lost 5 of my 7 endorsements. I was endorsed by CvP, Feds, and other parties before the crisis.
Recently, some of my detractors have implied that a president Emerick will lead to a weaker or ignored military.
"QFT Emerick is the worst choice possible. He is going to work on the wiki while the rest of the world advances and dominate the globe." - Perrin(source(comment #29))
While it's true that my platform, as I've written it, isn't military-heavy, let me make one thing crystal clear: if I'm elected, the military will receive increased funding, and we will continue to find quality operations to embark on.
Of course I'm going to put a lot into the military - currently, we have a 600 gold per week surplus in our budget. It's simply the reasonable thing to do. The fact that I haven't put a lot of focus on it in my campaign is, admittedly, a flaw in my campaign, but not a flaw in my policy. While I pointed out the differences between Harrison's and my campaigns(I'll be putting some extra effort into domestic policy), I failed to point out the similarities, which are plentiful.
To whit:
*increased military funding
*acknowledging the benefits of war
*preferring neutrality, but recognizing that it may be a lost cause(congress is currently voting on our entrance into Fortis)
*love of free trade
So military, you won't be lonely

I guess sometimes you really have to state the obvious.
Emerick i have a very important question. Will there be Santana champagne for everyone ?
Could Emerick create a rock so great that he couldn't lift it? Should there be federal oversight of Emerick's Greatness? Can someone be TOO great to be president? We need to consider these issues!
Can you give me an example of a "quality operation"?
More gold for the Airborne! Booyah!
the person who wrote this happens to be great
Wait so is all 600 gold going to the military?
>Can you give me an example of a "quality operation"?
Operation: Turkish Delight was a great operation. I'd love to see more operations as successful as that, and we should focus on winning situations. Not everything can be won, but winning boosts morals significantly, and with a higher morale, you get more recruits, ergo a stronger military. Quality.
Emerick the Great - Will there be bros during your presidency?
@Taylor: He didn't say he was going to put ALL 600 gold into the military.
Emerick is great and so is the military
"Operation: Turkish Delight was a great operation. I'd love to see more operations as successful as that, and we should focus on winning situations. Not everything can be won, but winning boosts morals significantly, and with a higher morale, you get more recruits, ergo a stronger military. Quality."
Yes.
Of course we should repeat my most brilliant military success. But the situation in Turkey is not necessarily easily replicated. What I mean is, do you have in mind a long-term military strategy? What criteria are you considering? If you consider the current military strategy to be inadequate, what do propose to change?
Fighting is fun. Fun boosts morale. The definition of winning isn't always the taking or securing of regions.
Will you leave in place the monetary market controls that fund our reliabe source of revenue?
Voted! Emerick is Great!
Maybe America will finally get a president with some sense.
What will the surplus gold not put into military be spent on?
Emerick é grande ç_ç
5 exp 2 days I don't know If I can do it but for you emerick even if my wellness is apsolutly killed I will try
Working on the wiki is a smart thing. Most countries wiki's look horrible.
First off I'm flattered that you dedicated a whole article to a comment written by me! But here is my rebuttal...please don't
The things your saying in this article conflict with your basic notion of how you play the game. If you truly believe there is no way to 'win' the game by setting achievable goals like Ananias has laid out in numerous articles then what is your purpose in increasing funding to the military??? Fun? I'm all for fun but I'd prefer a leader with direction and the ability to set achievable goals that can be pursued as a nation. And no I don't think fun is a goal. Thats for the Department of Fun not the President of the eUS.
I'm not saying you can't play the game the way you want to, I'm not saying you shouldn't be in a position where you can implement some of the most desirable goals and things that you propose, (wiki/increased military funding) but I do feel that the highest office of the nation should be reserved for the player with a clearer vision of victory. (Again look at Ananias' many articles on eUS victory...its more reasonable than you think.)
As Eugene Harlot said above "What I mean is, do you have in mind a long-term military strategy? What criteria are you considering? If you consider the current military strategy to be inadequate, what do propose to change?"
This question must be answered if you are going to be the leader of the eUS.
I'm really concerned by your response, Vince. You are smarter than that. All Emerick said was "We should win again like we did that one time." There was no substance to the response.
My concern about "quality operations" is that it means nothing. And when asked to clarify, by the CJCS, the candidate could offer nothing but wind.
Make no mistake, the current military strategy developed and currently being pursued is to "win the game." If we are to abandon this strategy then the US public has a right to know what the candidate has to offer as an alternative beyond "win more."
I am also concerned that Moishe of all people, has not recognized this. Not everyone can run for Congress, but every citizen can participate in the military to enrich their game experience.
Will Emerick continue with regular war games to increase the rank and fighting experience of US citizens?
Does the candidate have an opinion on the proposal of placing additional Q5 hospitals?
I hope we invest on our defense...
There will be a new Q5 hospital in Kansas. Will you add more to this or just keep it with three?
GEE, sure sounds a whole lot more like HR's platform.
>"Winning The Game" is just political banter. All Ananias did was find a way to be able to say that he's "pro-winning the game". How, did he say, would we "win"? Basically by becoming stronger. Nobody is against that. Of course I'm not against that, it's silly to even consider that.
Ananias has spoken not just about power being the criteria for victory but anything we choose as a nation to be our ultimate goal.

This admittance that there is a way to move forward with achievable goals that would define U.S. victory is what I am referring to. Will you also deny that Indonesia and Hungary are not in their own respect 'winning' this game by being two of the most dominant forces on the planet?
>Ananias has spoken not just about power being the criteria for victory but anything we choose as a nation to be our ultimate goal.
>anything we choose as a nation to be our ultimate goal.
Vague as vague can be. Like I said, it's just political banter
>GEE, sure sounds a whole lot more like HR's platform.
Yeah, because for the first time, I decided to point out our similarities. I spent most of the campaign focusing on our differences, that people began to think that I was ignoring the military. We have a lot of similarities in our platforms. It's what happens when some things are the most reasonable thing to do. I wouldn't go out of my way to make my platform super different from yours just to be different, that'd be stupid.
In your own, personal opinion: Which allies do you find to be the most trustworthy, and most worthy our help (in all kind of matters, whether it's military, economical or political)?
Sweden is by far the most helpful ally of ours militarily speaking. Economically, we haven't gotten a lot of help with our free trade plans, but we did convince a few allies to at least lower their import tax
I like your stance on several issues. I think I know who Ill vote for. 😉
Emerick, what is your position on the major leaks coming from the US military over the last 2.5 months?
i think you're actually winning me over...
Emerick, important question. Will Santa Claus still exist under your rule?
Thats a lie. There will be no military, for Emerick will bring us Dio, and he shall destroy anything he touches.
Vague is better than non-existent
Vote for Emerick.
Taking back sunday??
Oh no......bad choice of band
I am gonna vote for Emerick.
Emerick sai😛 Sweden is by far the most helpful ally of ours militarily speaking.
Thank you very much Emerick. eSweden is not a big country but we try to keep our foreign politics consistent. We invest in our relationships and fighting side by side with the US Marines and the other US military branches is always an honor.
oh please, not that free trade madness again, its killing so many of our businesses. it doesnt work irl, and obviously doesnt work here.

Wtf? Working on the wiki is a GOOD thing. It keeps everyone knowledgeable about our country. New players can learn about our past.
Also, even if he did work on the wiki more than anything else there is MORE THAN ONE PERSON running the country. 😕 Not just Emerick.
"Wtf? Working on the wiki is a GOOD thing. It keeps everyone knowledgeable about our country. New players can learn about our past."
- So they can say : "Wow it was awesome when Emerick didn't f*** up our military and economy"
Anime sucks + Emerick sucks + Emerick is racist = Weaker America
Don't vote Emerick.
Emerick will loot the eUSA and take off to Pakistan with all of your gold. He is Loyal only to his beloved Dio Brando and Pakistan, Not he eUSA. He knows with the possible coming invasion it will be easy to pillage the good ecitizens of the eUSA. Think people before its too late, his loyalty does not lay with you and your cause. He is a charlatan and should be exposed. Do not trust him.
