A Sad Day for America
Chris Stanwick
Today is a sad day for the United States. We have lost Kansas along with its Q5 hospital to the Russians and Kentucky to the Portuguese. Our plan to place a Q5 hospital in New York failed as well. We are swiftly losing this war, and with it our morale and nation. Well, what are we to do about it? President Richardson has finally agreed to peace negotiations with PEACE to hopefully end this war. I was asked to write up a proposal that we could present to them, which I did and shared publicly for discussion and opinions by others. Peace is in the interest of every American and a proposal for peace should be shared with our citizens so that they understand where we stand.
Because of my actions in sharing the proposal, the President has asked me to resign as Deputy Secretary of State and Ambassador to Ireland, both executive branch positions. I hereby submit my resignation publicly and in the open, something that this administration seems to avoid like the plague. He also asked me to resign as Director of the National Emergency Evacuation Program, which I declined as it is not an executive agency nor an appointed post. I personally created NEEP as an extension of my free moving tickets for newbies program, and will continue to donate free moving tickets to any citizen wanting to move to our fortress states of New Jersey and Florida.
Does this mean I'm out of politics? Absolutely not! I am still the Senator for Vermont and Deputy Speaker of the House and will continue to dedicate my time and work to Congress. I still have connections in almost every nation in the world and will continue to maintain those relations even if I do not have a position in the State Department.
That said, I would like to announce my candidacy for President of the United States. Unlike my contenders, I have a plan to end this war and allow us to rebuild as a nation. Recovery will not be easy nor quick, but peace will at least give us the chance. I view transparency as an important aspect of government, and as President will not hide important information or actions from the public. You have the right to know things as they happen rather than learning about them from a third party later on.
Over the next few days, I will be writing articles containing aspects of my platform and my plans to ensure that our nation survives this war. I appreciate and expect feedback from the public so that I know what you think. If you don't like something, let me know! I'm open to suggestions and recommendations. Now, I ask one more thing: please join me in the Umbrella Research Party to demonstrate your support for my candidacy. We're going to try to skyrocket to the top 5 so that my chances for election are better. Thank you all, and remember, PM me to request your free moving ticket to New Jersey or Florida!

Ya, I liked HR at first but now he's starting to get a little... odd
I'm very sorry to hear about these developments, but sadly I'm not surprised by them... I fully support your candidacy!
All the best,
Robert
Gratz on running for Pres!
Ever since I started playing eRep earlier this month, I've always liked your style of running thing.
You have my vote.

You have my full support as you know Chris.

PerfesserBB
Fortis cadere, cedere non potest.
You have my full support CS. Voted!
Good luck, Chris.
Good luck
At least someone with the guts to stand up against the tyranny of Harrison Richardson, Scrabman, Eugene Harlot and the rest of that elite club that holds the United States hostage right now.
I'm new. How can I level up to fight quickly and join the Umbrella Research party?
dang, almost inb4 PEACE butthole hater trolls
Umbrella Research Party is a silly name. You guys should change it.
A statement from the Umbrella Corp boards:
"My latest intel from PEACE suggests that they are more keen on signing a peace treaty instead of completely destroying the US. Members of PEACE High Command are considering the option of consolidating their territory, and focusing on smaller, weakers and most importantly cheaper Fortis/EDEN countries to conquer.
Whatever happens, peace or total destruction, we will make it so Umbrella benefits from it. If peace, we can use it to show the ineptitude of the current US administration and their inability to defend the country properly, if total destruction, we can do the same.
Both ways will enable us to discredit the current administration whilst focusing attention on our alternative. My suggestion would be to wait and see what happens in the next couple of days."

Chris, you posted the contents of a treaty that was still in negotiation in a public forum. I would like to point out that the URP's reaction to the treaty proposal:
"My latest intel from PEACE suggests that they are more keen on signing a peace treaty instead of completely destroying the US. Members of PEACE High Command are considering the option of consolidating their territory, and focusing on smaller, weakers and most importantly cheaper Fortis/EDEN countries to conquer.

How interesting that you're working for a party that is seeking to sow subterfuge.
Well, Kansas is nice. I like it. I think I'll move there soon. But i need a ticket. Chris, I want to move there, give me a ticket, please, as you always do.
The evacuation program is great, keep up the good work!
It is a shame that the leaders are turning on themselves when we need them the most.
It was pretty obvious what would happen, our elected officials a
had some bad ideas and now we're finished.
Chris Stanwick for President! 😃
eUSA need's a change on politics. USWP is in power way too long. I wish you luck in your campaign to be president.
Voted and subscribed
You definitely have my vote. The current president's tactics lost us most of the midwest.
Chris, if you have this wonderful idea to stop the war, why was I never given it?
Furthermore, say we pay PEACE 4500 gold or whatever to get our regions back. While we are at peace with them, Spain gets conquered.. so does Romania. As does Norway. Then, when they re-attack us in 4 months time, we're not only broke, we have no allies.
Got my vote Stanwick!

In the early hours of the Kansas battle, the Department of Defense (USA) ordered American troops to defend Kansas. Halfway through, orders were switched to defend Oklahoma instead. Not helping matters was Canadian commanders’ decision to order their troops to fight in Manitoba (against Hungary) instead of in Kansas. This was a mistake of colossal proportions, as Hungary was already blocked through Nordjylland (by Sweden) and Canadian war planners appeared not to have realise that Hungary was not part of the operation against Kansas. Given the margin of victory in the Kansas battle, if Canadian forces had fought there instead of in Manitoba or if American forces were not re-directed to fight in Oklahoma, the outcome of the battle could well have swung F/E's way.
Or PEACE would have tanked a little more.
Harrison, for the last week and a half, I have proposed peace, while you continuously said we would never surrender. The terms that PEACE offered were actually better than I had expected, which gives us the opportunity to salvage most of the US and reclaim most of the rest. If we do not agree to peace with them, you will always be known as the president who lost America...completely. I would rather live in a smaller America than in another nation.

Answer me this, will your plan return us to the status quo antebellum, or will PEACE be sitting on what they've taken? IF your plan includes cedeing US territory to PEACE does that mean that you've come to the conculsion that we cannot win this war?
hmm I think its too late for you to get on the CVP primary but regardless you will probably have my vote in the real election.
Maybe he has come to the conclusion that the eUS cannot win this war because it can't Sheriff Yoda.
Surrender to the Hun??? nevah !!11!
A first-class Ambassador to Ireland.
A pity to see you go, Mr Stanwick.
You know where I am, don't be a stranger.
You are a good guy Chris, but this is a war game lets battle to the death!
Most definitely have my vote as well. I love your articles, your quite frank about what is going on in them, and do a great service in helping to get moving tickets out to those that need them.
Do not vote for him. He will mess things up bad.
I'm with you Chris. Voted, and will vote!
He's a spy I tell you! Chris Stanwick is a PEACE SPY!
Nice work done there Chris, we'll use all your secret info for us!
The war strategy employed by the Anti-PEACE forces here simply an embarrassment, but there is no way I'll wave a white flag to the Indo Empire. At least we still have the Dignity Brigade...
You have my full support!!
Thug, I don't think we're beaten yet. Think about this, why would PEACE be interested in peace if they had the war in the bag? The answer is they wouldn't, they'd just conquer us and be done with it.
