A Party of Patriots: USWP and the February Congressional Elections
•
by ProggyPop
There's been a lot of discussion about the growing concern on foreign invaders in our Congressional elections. We at the USWP are directly dealing with this situation. One of the problems with being the biggest party in the world is that it's harder to keep track of every member. As such, foreigners attempt to sneak into our ranks, take an open seat, run under our banner, and sneak into Congress. This is a nefarious plan of action.
Thankfully, the USWP has a great crew of active Executive Board members and we've dilligently watched out for this problem. GoBucks, our PAC Director and pro-tem Chief of Staff, and Tdwester, one of our dedicated Executive Board members, have succesfully gone through our list and weeded out the foreigners.
With the help of our friends in other parties, we've succesfully bumped the vast majority of attempted foreigners from the ballot. Let me thank the following people for registering as a member of the USWP solely to bump a foreigner off the ballot.
PrincessMedyPi- Alaska
OneEye- Wyoming
Leroy Combs- North Carolina
Gaius Julius- Michigan
Kyle321N- Indiana
We also had USWP members step up to run for Congress to block certain foreigners as well. I'd also like to thank them for their help, even though they're not expected to actually win these seats.
Tennessee- Redclaw486
Unfortunately we were unable to block every foreigner from office. There simply was not enough time to coordinate and block every foreigner. So let me point out, for the record, three foreigners who are running on the USWP line but are not supported by the USWP or its Executive Board .
Artiga- Illinois
PRUNARIU- Montana
Let me make a few comments about these individuals. Artiga is the worst on this level. He is 100% a foreign invader. I believe he is a Brazilian. He may in fact be coordinating with PEACE. We as a party endorse Aren Perry for that seat. Aren is an incumbent and an active member of Congress. We would have endorsed him if he joined the party, but again there just wasn't enough time to coordinate with everyone.
PRUNARIU is a foreigner (Romanian) but he seems to legitimately want to serve the eUS. This could be an act, and it's certainly hard to tell. His English is decent and he has a legitimate presentation. HeadmistressTalia is running in Montana and while we haven't endorsed her, we certainly wish her luck. We would all prefer a true American to a Johnny-Come-Lately Romanian.
One other situation must be noted. Unfortunately our good friend Ananias recently departed the game. This was unfortunate on a number of levels, not the least of which is the fact that Ananias is one of the smartest and most effective Congressional representatives. He will be greatly missed. Unfortunately one side-effect results from Ananias's sudden departure. We've been forced to support Michael Lewis for Congress, as he was unopposed on our ballot.
Let me make this clear once and for all...
The USWP does NOT support Michael Lewis!
That is all.
Update: Let it be known that Alexiel Solarin is NOT, I repeat NOT a foreigner. I apologize to Alexiel for the mix-up. In my defense, we were better safe than sorry in this situation.

They really need to add a feature in which parties aren't forced to support a candidate if there is no one else running in the state.
Regardless, I am proud of my party for taking this action, and I am proud of the three non-USWP members for setting aside party politics and joining temporarily to protect our nation's sovereignty.
Though I am not affiliated with the USWP, I applaud your efforts to set the record straight on these individuals and would hope that the other parties would follow suit in alerting the citizenship of the suspected foreign invaders on their rosters.
Why don't you just not nominate people in some states? This may be a noobish question from someone who has never run a party, but can't you just not approve them? From what I remember the party president has to approve candidates, so why not just not approve the candidates in question?
Yes. PrincessMedyPi, OneEye, Leroy Combs should be commended greatly, in addition to the numerous other USWP members who, while not predicted to win, ensured that our government is not overrun with foreigners with no intentions of serving in the eUSA's best interest.
Oh wait, hadn't seen Jordan's comment. In that case I agree with Jordan.
Ahem, I believe you missed the person taking the greatest sacrifice by running as a USWPer...
Also the RAMROD Coalition fully endorses Michael Lewis for congress. He'll bring the lulz!
As a noob to this erepublik business, I must inquire, isn't there some way to at least try to keep this from becoming so rampant?

Gaius Julius is a Federalist running in Michigan.
Thanks for the edits folks. I'll update the article.
Also speaking as a newbie, is there not a way to offer a nominating convention to correct this hustle? Or is there this already in place?
Voted.
Thank you for telling us the legitimate members of the USWP and those who aren't supported.
Thanks for naming names and making this known Proggy! I'm determined to help out this situation whenever possible!
Wonderful article and glad this got publicized! Let it be known who the true heroes of this issue are: PrincessMedyPi, OneEye, Leroy Combs, Gaius Julius, Kyle321N, and Redclaw486, I applaud your efforts!
Listen I know in RL and in the game ProggyPop, jordan miller, and everyone else in the USWP hate my guts. But I want to know why you hate me and whatever I did wrong I'll stop. It really doesn't make sense to be in a party that doesn't support me. I just want to be friends with you and all the other USWP members. I'm sorry for whatever I did wrong.
Michael Lewis
thank you for the mention proggy,
Vote Gaius in Michigan!!!
This is a great multi-party effort. Kudos!
I was just trying to help.
I'm running w/ the USWP, mention me. I have abandonment issues and want to be part of the team.
then if we the foreigners we can NOT candidate for the Congress then why u are paying our services ??? and then why u are not doing like in RL shut your head in sand and get out of all aliances and play for yourself and leave the other eRepublic countries alone...u are just like in RL u think u are above the others but let me tell ya smth U ARE NOT !!!
They need a law that doesn't allow foreginrs to run for congres like in real life with the president
@ Divertis: I really don't think it's unreasonable of Americans to want only Americans in Congress. That has nothing to do with thinking we're better than you; we'd just like to be in charge of our own government, thanks. If Americans were infiltrating your government, we'd feel the same way.
It is not about foreigners per say. If some one is active and has good input if does not mater. There were some very strange people running. When you see some one form Turkey who was a 2 time congressman and has the rank of General it throws up a red flag.
Yeah, as a citizen of eUSA, I'd like to say that I'm well aware that you have reason to suspect that I might be a foreigner, and from the actions taken by others in the past, I perfectly understand, but I would also like to point out perfectly clearly that I. Am. Not. I'm a proud citizen of eUSA who wanted to try running for congress in my home state because, frankly, no one else was, and I wanted to represent Minnesotans. I employ US citizens in my organization/company, I bought the unlock all pack so I'm perfectly capable of running, and frankly, I think that you ought to have asked me before you just went off and labeled me as a foreigner, but, since you brought it out into the public eye, I'm posting it here. I know I'm not as seasoned as the other political veterans here, but just because I'm new doesn't mean I'm a foreigner.
The USWP will blacklist existing Congressmen with no warning and with no professionalism or respect. Just a warning to anyone running under their banner:

This is all the official candidates for AAP. If there not on the list then they didn't follow our protocol.
Not supported by AAP:
Urubu Rei
rkaplevatsky
Don't you mean a party of traitorous zombies?
I have to give a round of applause for these fine efforts to keep eAmerica in eAmerican hands. Really excellent article. To those reading please consider me for Congress in Louisiana.
I think it's funny how the USWP is ruining the country. Patriots? *sigh*
"We were better safe than sorry" is the weak defense of a Xenophobe.
I don't have an issue with someone from another eCountry who wants to help the eUS, but it is has been known in eRep on many occasions that other eCountries (including our own) have taken actions to politically sabotage other countries. (By the way, that is another reason someone in congress should not put down "lulz" proposals, because that is a great opportunity for those interested in political sabotage to vote without anyone knowing who did it or why).
Someone also could have been in another eCountry because of military, business, etc., even though they are American. Party presidents should probably find a way to verify (if they don't already know) that if someone isn't American, they at least have been an active party member for at least the previous month before endorsing them for congress...that hopefully would help to weed out those who really want to help the eUS as opposed to sabotoging the system.
