Reelect von Phalz in Arizona
Rheinlander von Phalz
Jamie O’Neal would have you believe that Arizona is a land of broken promises and false hope. I must disagree with the country music singer; Arizona was promised an active, dedicated Congressman, and one was delivered. In accordance with my first campaign platform, I have fought against disastrous infrastructure proposals and maintained the use of reason in foreign policy discussions.
My name is Rheinlander von Phalz, and I would like to once again serve this nation by representing Arizona in Congress. I am officially announcing my candidacy and will run under America’s Advancement Party.
Once more, I am humbly asking you, voters of the United States, to support my candidacy and review my platform.
Opposition to Hungary and PEACE
Our nation made great strides during last month’s Congressional campaign and pushed Colombia, France, and Russia out of our borders. Canada also gave Iran the boot. Our string of successes stopped when we fought Hungary. I am committed to victory against the only nation continuing to defile American and Canadian lands and will support efforts against Hungary in my capacity as a Congressman. Furthermore, I will continue to oppose PEACE GC and pursue the liberation of their colonies and the freedom of nations held under their tyranny.
Please note that Congress does not direct the military or dictate military strategy. Whatever my personal opinions on the efficacy of tanking versus mass distribution of Q1 weapons, I defer to military strategy experts in our government.
Military and Militias
Most candidates understand the need for a strong and well-funded military. I am no exception. To secure more offensive and defensive capability for the United States, I supported the creation of the Office of Militia Support, which will subsidize private militias which operate their own weapon companies at a loss. Groups such as the Bear Cavalry and the Eagles may become eligible to receive a small government stipend through this office. I brought up concerns about the OMS being abused, and now militia groups need to be approved by the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Foreign Relations
As a member of the 22nd United States Congress, I served on the Foreign Relations Advisory Committee (FRAC). I have done so without making a single reference to Battlestar Galactica.
Why the FRAC not?
As a member of this committee, I have contributed to examinations of our relationships with South American countries, Russia, China, and India. China has sought alliances with countries, including the United States, to secure them against imperialist threats. India narrowly rejected an alliance offered by the United States, and I will continue to monitor the situation if elected again. Navigating the turbulent waters of the present Russian political situation will be delicate, but I am convinced the United States can benefit. I support defending Peru against Colombian and Brazilian incursion if America is called upon.
Infrastructure
While many poor infrastructure platforms were not elected to the 22nd Congress, some were. Given our present population, two Q5-hospital ‘fortress’ states are appropriate. If our population expands to the point that we can accommodate another, the likely candidate states have been decided by me and other members of Congress who chose to weigh in. I still have to explain why certain states are ill-suited to become American fortresses, and am willing to do the same for another term.
Private groups have come forth with offers of cheap hospitals and defensive systems. Some of my colleagues were hesitant, seeing it as abandonment of fortress strategy, or nit-picking problems with good-intentioned citizens. I made sure we were taking advantage of every opportunity presented to us. Hospitals and defense systems in storage do not mean we need to recklessly deploy them; they can be deployed when ready, be mobilized as replacement for overrun fortress states, and offered to allies who need them.
Multipartisan Cooperation
I continue to strongly support working with different political parties and collaboration to ensure the best outcome for America. I do all I can to not become embroiled in partisan bickering, instead supporting the best candidates and the best proposals. Now that our country’s territory is mostly unified, we must be diligent to ensure that old political divisions do not tear us apart.
Activity, Responsibility, Dependability
I promised to maintain high levels of activity throughout my term and diligently execute the responsibilities of my office. I like to think I made good on those promises. Complete records of all my votes can be found in either the Congressional Voting Records office or my private publication.

I do more than simply posting my voting record; I give rationales for my decisions and explain what Congress was thinking when proposing legislation. Government accountability is important, but I think the educational benefits to young citizens are more important. I also answer messages from my constituents in a prompt and complete manner. Education is an important part of my campaign even though I am not participating in newbie education in an official capacity of the government. Knowledgeable players become active ones, and active citizens make our country strong. To further the dialogue between Congress and citizens, I frequent the eUS internet relay chat (IRC) and participate in Jude Connors’s weekly town hall.
Thank for your reviewing my platform. Please consider returning me to Congress for the good of Arizona and America. Once again, you will not be disappointed.

GOOD LUCK!!
voted up
Best of luck, I hope you win again.
Mr. von Phalz is everything we want in a Congressman. Let's send him back to the capital.
Best of luck to you.
Your points don't seem very complex or different from what anyone else can think, no matter how stuiped or intellegent. Come on one of them is if Arizona suddenly gets another 3,000 people to move there then you'll support putting a Q5 Hospital there. Another is that you support the liberation of America. Seriously, why would you want to be in congress if you didn't want America liberated?
Karakoran has no knowledge of my infrastructure platform. I have never supported placement of a Q5 hospital in Arizona and place very little emphasis on current population in consideration of future fortress states. Population can be moved into fortresses. My ideas on new fortress state locations focus heavily on raw material wealth and tactical position.
While most citizens favor military reclamation of Washington, Alaska, and the three Canadian regions, some call for negotiation with Hungary. Statement of my position is in no way a bad thing. People deserve to know who they are voting for.
Karakoran’s shameless trolling puzzled me, as my platform is similar to many people’s, which he correctly pointed out, but I didn’t see him trolling anywhere else. I investigated further and found that his most recent newspaper entry was 22 days ago in which he claimed to want to run for Congress in Arizona.

Bashing your opponents does not make you a better candidate.
Good Luck!
RvP has done an outstanding job. He's hardworking, thoughtful, pragmatic and works well with others.
He's earned another term in office.
Without a doubt, Congressman Rheinlander von Phalz is one of my best and closest friends in Congress. We are both Freshmen Congressmen, but Rheinlander looks like a pro. He is such a great Congressman and has earned the chance to continue to serve in Congress.
Vote Von Phallus! o/

Yes, I do want to be the congressmen of Arizona, my rl state. But that stands aside being a month ago. I'm just more focused on your than other people because like I said, Arizona is my rl state and has more potentional. Although if I had the time I'd go troll more people.

No, I'm trolling on the shear obiousness of your post. I just think that if I was to vote I should vote for someone with ideas to pump out into the eWorld.
Okay that didn't turn out well. Let me put some better marks in there: >Karakoran’s shameless trolling puzzled me, as my platform is similar to many people’s, which he correctly pointed out, but I didn’t see him trolling anywhere else.

This candidate clearly doesn't understand how to help America. He wouldn't even grant an economic giant like GLaDOS citizenship. He could've easily granted GLaDOS citizenship. This would have meant that GLaDOS would've spent gold here and helped the economy.
Rhein fails in economics.
As Rhein's opponent I feel that i need to point out that the criticism mentioned is NOT warranted.
Gailees is a PEACE troll,
Karakoran, where did Rhein mention he wanted to make Arizona a fortress? Also you don't have to be so aggressive if you feel his ideas are unoriginal.
