Some Questions For Our Impending President, Artela
Donovan Zoi
I had begun to write this article yesterday, and since then two things have happene
😛
1. Pizza the Hut has posted a less detailed article that some will try to paint as similar to mine, but I have no affiliation with him whatsoever. There are others that share the concerns I raise besides those that want to harm our country.
2. Artela's main opponent Joe Dinero has gone missing, apparently having switched parties after declaring for President which knocked him out of the race due to game mechanics.
There's pretty much no harm in posting this article now, so let's have some fun this election cycle.
I am writing this article today because this has been an excruciatingly uneventful election cycle, when I feel that a more vibrant and thorough debate is deemed necessary. From what I can see, it appears that President Oblige has set in motion the machinations to hand the reins of government over to his adversaries of the last 2 months, the United States Workers Party. I cannot say with certainty if a deal was made to achieve this, but it appears that recent appointments have been carried out to introduce the comfort of continuity and make it appear that there is only one choice in this election.
Facts:
1. Artela (USWP) was recently appointed by Oblige to be Vice President for the remainder of this term after the resignation of VP Jude Connors. Artela is now running for President.
2. Israel Stevens (AMP, long time ally of certain USWP members) was brought on to replace the outspoken General Armstrong Custer as Media Director for the remainder of this term. Israel is included in Artela's cabinet to continue in this position.
3. Artela's top two tiers of her cabinet contain all but one USWP member, including Oblige rival Vanek26, a USWP member at the center of several electoral tactics aimed at Oblige during his tenure as President. This stacked cabinet is in stark contrast to Oblige's practice of running with a bi-partisan cabinet.
4. Both Jude Connors and George Armstrong Custer left the game due to dissatisfaction with the political tactics and overall demeanor of ever-present former USWP President Henry Arundel.
5. Henry Arundel (who is more commonly known as Pfeiffer) is nowhere to be found in Artela's cabinet.
6. The congressional vote on Oblige's impeachment had exceeded 66% approval for nearly the first half of voting, yet the final vote was 29-25 and not sufficient to impeach.
Before I continue, I'd like to say two things.
First, the pairing of Artela and rainy sunday seems like a fine ticket, and there is no question that each has contributed to America's greatness in her own way. This article is less about them as individuals and more about the company they keep.
Secondly, I too counted myself among the scores of USWP members but left silently of my own accord last month after seeing what the party had become, or perhaps had always been. I have no personal grudge against any member of the party nor am I writing this article in retaliation for any perceived slight by the party as a whole, because none existed.
On with the questions!
1. Artela, you served as United States Workers Party President during the infamous PTO scandal where your party overtook 6 smaller parties to make it appear that candidate Israel Stevens had broader support of individual parties than his opponent, Oblige, in the March Presidential election. Was this action planned and approved by you as Party President, or was someone else in charge of this strategy? If the former, how do you justify the need to cannibalize smaller parties for political gain? If the latter, can we expect this same level of oversight if you become Country President?
I'll leave Vanek's comment in to prove I am not partisan, but it looks to me like Artela has no problem with this PTO project.
Your cabinet includes two regular members of the eUSA forums the seem to revel in being abrasive to those they do not agree with. How do you reconcile the work they do against this type of behavior? Is it worth it?
This was a diatribe leveled by Oblige's then chief of staff ---against CBO Evry and indirectly, the President himself --- who will carry on if Artela is elected. Inwegen has been lauded by Artela as "not afraid to speak his mind and tell it like it is." I'll admit, that's pretty direct.
I apologize to those who find this article to be sensationalism, but I trult feel the nation was denied a chance at a much needed debate during a time when the country really needs to publicly assess it future.

Wonderful article!
Did you forget to drink your kool-aid?
Strange things are happening.
I hate Kool-Aide...even though America made it plain what they think of Pfeiffer...seems he will be President day after tomorrow...and we all know where his hand will be...
OHHHH YEAH
This article could use a bit of balance, I find it hard to believe anyone outside of the Oblige fan-club will take it seriously. Some corrections: First off, Israel Stevens was brought on because he was reliable, could do the work, and as you mentioned Custer rage quit the night before. Second this isn't the first time Custer or Jude have suddenly quit, and I'm sure it won't be the last. They've done it periodically for longer than I've been around. Honestly, if the PP of a party neither is in was their grounds for leaving, they need to toughen up. Also, inflating endorsement lists with tiny parties that various politicos PTO'd was old news back when I got involved in politics in early 2010. Nothing to see here.
Honestly, to me the impeachment vote said all it needed to. Oblige lost the vote, just not by 2/3, and many of the people who voted against impeachment still had major issues with him. He lost the confidence of the large majority of people really paying attention to politics in this country, and to me that's the fact that overshadows all this.
Artela is going to be elected, and I personally think that's great. It would be better if it was a competitive election, but our presidential candidates also need deep knowledge of game mechanics, which apparently Dinero doesn't entirely have. Anyway, we can entrench the factional divide of the last few months or try to move forward, that's for all of you to decide. I think it's clear what the better choice is for the eUS.
Thanks to everyone who has taking the time to read this. It means a lot.
I'd also like to thank Alex for posting a rebuttal. My main goal with posting this article was to foster discussion, and I feel it has been a small catalyst to the minor media spike we are enjoying this week. I encourage anyone who has posted an article to continue to do so.
Alex, if you read closely, you will see that Oblige is also implicated in the scenario I present. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to determine that Artela was being put forward as successor by the sitting President, for whatever reason. Also take note that I make it clear that I feel that Artela and rainy are fine candidates, so I have no quarrel with either of them personally.
The questions directed to Artela are just observations any journalist should be free to make based on what has transipred, and I would consider myself to be a crackpot if I were the only one making them. I even see some of my arguments being answered in another article's comments section, which is a political masterstroke for those avoiding a direct response to me. However, it just tells me I must be on to something.
In closing, I too want what's best for America, and a significant part of that is to have contested elections and not merely a passing of the crown. Especially when the indirect beneficiary is a political party that contributed heavily to the factional divide you no longer want any part of.
Thanks again for taking time to join the debate, Alex.
