PERTAMAXXX

Also, AMERIMAXX DENIED

You've already got my vote

Stanwick for Surrenderer in Chief!

Jasper, the decision is ultimately up to the American people, which you would know had you actually read the article.

go sell out a different country please

If that is so, and by the vocalization of many eUSA citizens, you should already know the answer, Chris.

Chris... you just lost my vote. I sent you 3 gold for the moving tickets, and I appreciate what you do and have done for eUSA. You play a valuable role here. I don't know exactly why you leaked the surrender treaty with PEACE. I think you should explain your reasons for that, but that's really up to you . I personally am glad you did, if only to piss us off enough to start fighting with some purpose and clarity. For me, I am going with the person who is going all the way down to the end, and then helps me get our states back. And not by buying them. I prefer to fight to the end, then fight for the resistance if I have to. I want Leadership... Not Negotiations... Unless it's about the unconditional surrender of PEACE.

You shout "Great new article" referring to your own article? WTF?

So Mr. Stanwick, if the American public willed it, you would not surrender or enter into a peace treaty?

Good evening, Chris. 🙂 I just want you to know that although I didn't write very flattering things about you in my latest article, I don't want you to take the cries of conservative extremists (*looks at Comments* you know who I mean) to heart. Although I may not agree with you on the degree of transparency a President should have in his decision-making, I admire what you're saying here.

Is no one reading the article? If Americans want to fight, we'll fight. If they want peace, we'll go with that. My personal opinion doesn't matter. I am only one American. The decision will be made by all Americans. Read the article, I'm giving you, the Americans, the decision as to what we should do.

Bob's got it right to the extreme!

i don't think giving up would be good. but i believe is all rest that you mentioned about. public opinion and voice, government who go rogue needs to be ousted.

@Bob Balabola

truce not surrender. there is a difference.

I'm not going to argue today, I'm sick of trying to convince right-wing nutjobs that peace is the best option. Just like the RL wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the right wings refuse to believe that war is in any way wrong. So I will say this and wash my hands of this article: Don't drink the right wing cool-aid.

A vote for Stanwick is a vote for surrender and capitulation.

so stanwick,

how do you respond to the accusations that the party you are running under is anti-american?

How do you intend on getting the voice of "every american". does this mean you intend on doing a referendum including every single american? (including those trapped outside of our borders, which brings up the question of how you intend to decipher who is american and who isnt?)

How do you respond to the accusations that you have granted citizenship to pro-peace citizens without the approval of the committee set up by congress to handle citizenship in a corrupt deal to gain another supporter stateside?

Stanwick for Surrenderer in Chief!

and a vote for Harrison Richardson is a vote for idiocy and corruption. Not to mention the continued rape of our homelands.

The people elect you to decide FOR THEM, Chris. You have to make decisions on your own at some point.

Stanwick has stated that it's not worth fighting this war. He wants peace at any cost. He's happy to give up regions and all of our gold in order to end the war. He'd sell out our allies and then in a few months when the cease fire is over, we'd get wiped out. Chris is working with a group that supports PEACE, so why is any of this a shock?

@Caleel

you say tomato, I say surrender...

dude... It's just a game. But in this game I choose to fight to get our territory back. And unless PEACE wants to discuss packing up and going home without Hawaii and Cali, then there is nothing to talk about

Nice propaganda, HR administration. Today you show yourselves as true conservatives with your dirty smear tactics.

I'm sorry Chris, I think you are a good guy, but I will not bow down to PEACE. Our allies have sacrificed so much for us, and how do we re-pay them? By cutting a deal with the devil and rolling over. The America I know doesn't do that. We should fight till the bitter end. The cost for them to do such a thing is ridiculous. By forcing them to spend that money trying to destroy us, we help our allies throughout the world, and we show the world that we stand by our word.

I never respected Chris nor do I now but I do more from this article than i did before. All you blindly nationalistic jerk offs make me sick. What is he selling out? A piece of virtual soil. Data. An abstract representation of a country which makes me just as sick to see people worshiping. I don't even believe a word he's saying but I know you all are too cemented in your lives blinded by the lies of "patriotism" to even see it like that. All you care about is your cool little accusatory slogans and your sorry excuse for a fake country based on a sorry excuse for a real one. Everything he says in this article is EXACTLY what you supposedly "democratic" people should be drooling over but you are all eHYPOCRITES just like you probably are in real life, after all I'm willing to bet you are real life Americans. I'm done with this rant it is wasted on your pathetically misled brains.

HR, it's your administration that's considering negotiating with PEACE...

Apparently, the current president and his supporters DO NOT KNOW HOW TO READ. If they did, they would know that I would not sign a peace agreement with PEACE unless that was the wish of the American public. Including themselves. My argument in favor of peace is that if the war is not ended soon, the United States will be the next South Africa. I don't want that to happen to my nation. Do you?

I agree with what these guys are saying. we should TOTALY say "screw democracy" (and inteligence for that matter) and elect some dictator who we THINK wants the same things we do. Chris has my vote.

@Josh Mahurin, nice way to show the that real life hatred for America in here.

Chris, any true American would die before surrendering. You're a coward.

@Jasper Ferguson

No, any true American would look for a peaceful solution before war. You're an idiot.

Since youve responded to this thread and apparently missed my questions. Ill just repost them. thanks.

how do you respond to the accusations that the party you are running under is anti-american?

How do you intend on getting the voice of "every american". does this mean you intend on doing a referendum including every single american? (including those trapped outside of our borders, which brings up the question of how you intend to decipher who is american and who isnt?)

How do you respond to the accusations that you have granted citizenship to pro-peace citizens without the approval of the committee set up by congress to handle citizenship in a corrupt deal to gain another supporter stateside?

Are you kidding me Caleel? You'd go up to people who invaded our country and negotiate a loss of states with them and give them our gold, so that they can then attack our allies?

For the record, I am no supporter of HR.

I am in no way enamored with the current administration. I kinda like Emerick, but I'm not entirely sure he's all there...

@Josh Mahurin: Most of aren't really all that nationalistic in RL, I suspect. you are very right. It's a game. It a trigger response, to see a virtual nation invade your virtual homeland. It's designed to instill nationalistic pride... that's kinda the whole point

Stanwick, the man who is willing to give up parts of America.
Stanwick, the man willing to pay PEACE for our own turf.
Stanwick, the man who thinks that PEACE is worth talking to.
'
And Chris, it isn't about "doing what the American people want", it's about KNOWING what we want. And all you are advocating is the right to side with the loudest voices. Thank god the Citizenship thing went through or else PEACE would PTO us by putting you into office.

If you were voted President,and the people aske to continue the war,would you do so?

Read the damn article. He's not saying that he'll surrender. He's saying that he'll let the eAmerican people decide. That's a clear difference, and it's disingenuous to suggest otherwise.

That said, I have to disagree with this idea in practice. I am all for transparency (I work on this issue in RL), but at some point high-level decisions must be made by high-level people. I don't want five hundred people debating the merits of a particular course of action, particularly when 470 of them have no f'ing idea what they're talking about. That's why we have a REPRESENTATIVE democracy, not a true democracy.

I want to vote for someone who will make smart decisions, not for someone that will defer to the masses. I don't trust the masses. I agree with you that HR has left people in the dark too much. But I'd advocate for a middle ground over this proposal.

DEATH BEFORE DISHONOR

My ass is leaving this country if Stanwick gets elected.

No Vote and Unsubscribed!

You had my respect Chris up until this fiasco. The free tickets and funny posts were fine, everyone knows you.
But:

1. You're IN the Umbrella Research Party.
2. You posted something public that was entrusted to the Congress to be kept private.
3. You gave citizenship to Habraka Abrivianius http://www.erepublik.com/en/citizen/profile/1261134" target="_blank">http://www.erepublik.com/en/citizen/prof[..]1134
check the guy's newspaper.

It's just too bad there isn't a Vote of No Confidence button.

@Skittles: 1) I am running under the Umbrella party because they offered me an endorsement when my own party decided to support our party president. I wish Josh Hoss the best of luck in the election, but still feel I am the best candidate at the moment. Once I am elected, I will leave the Umbrella Party and remain party-less throughout my term. I am not tied to one party, I am tied to the nation.

2) Rather than listening to the loudest voices, I will find public opinion through polls, much like the RL president does. Except in this case, the poll will reach more than just a small percentage of Americans.

3) I have granted citizenship to exactly one person, a German who wanted to come to America after his nation chose to side with PEACE. I had spoken with him several times in the past and believe him in his loyalties. I did not approve him so that he could vote for me.

@vAero: If the American people chose to continue fighting to the death, then we would fight until the death. I will not go against the wishes of the American public.

I think that just shows your lack of good judgment, Chris. You let a PEACE op into the country, ignoring the protocol set forth by Congress. I'm sure you looked into his eyes and found your soul-mate, but you should have done some reading of his newspaper instead.

A person's past does not dictate their future.

That's your justification for letting a PEACE op into the country, without the proper vetting?

Chris, are you going to poll the American public before every major policy decision? Seems like it.

@Caleel,Josh Mahurin, & any other fools:

Read this great paragraph by Daniel Jacob Asher:

"I "compromise" every day in RL. I go along with practicality in RL. I choose to play this goddamn game because I can be proud, and be loyal at all costs. I play this game because we make our reality here. No bones about it. If you want to live in a puny puppet state, that's your business. But the rest of us have nothing to lose. This isn't RL for a reason. Here, we don't have to be totally pragmatic. Lives aren't on the line. Just pride. I can afford to lose battles, and regions. But I cannot afford, in this game to lose an ally's trust, or my country's pride. Let's play, until the end. Because it will never end UNLESS WE END IT."


In closing, HR has done an admirable job dealing with this BS unjust war waged by PEACE for lulz just because they 'were bored.' No other President could do any better.. only worse, by surrendering to PEACE scum.

"My argument in favor of peace is that if the war is not ended soon, the United States will be the next South Africa. I don't want that to happen to my nation. Do you?"

So you do want peace with PEACE. If we all decide to fight to the end, I'd rather have a President in office who felt the same way.

Nice save chris

Hey Chris, you should change the name of the paper to "The True Voice of Treason". Truth in advertising.

BTW Chris, how will you organize polls? How can you make sure that only Americans can vote?
-- "2) Rather than listening to the loudest voices, I will find public opinion through polls, much like the RL president does."

Might want to advertise for your presidency.

And does this (http://www.erepublik.com/en/newspaper/abrivianius-news-inc--181917/1) seem to you that he is anti-PEACE ?
