It Should Always Be This Good
Day 2383
5/30/2014

We have had a busy month. Foreign Affairs has been a turbulent time-sink. Probably no more than any other CP deals with, but the tack in these waters changes fairly often it seems. We are taking the care required to network and nurture relationships. Not all is wine and roses but we do quite well. The challenge can be very stimulating and enjoyable!

Our domestic offices continue to be stellar in all that they do. Cholan has an Education resource for ALL of our players looking to expand their knowledge of eRep that hasn’t been this comprehensive since Blank Keating’s days. Please take a look when you have a moment. You can visit here: http://eusa-doe.co.nr/

IndexInifinty has successfully taken over the very creative and energetic Department of the Interior. His efforts have been enormous and people with a talent for motivating others do not come along every day. His talents are greatly appreciated.

Our ATO group successfully deployed to the UK this month. It’s been a long time since we have been able to help out our allies with ATO operations. Well done!

Militarily we are withdrawing from Canada. The war was quite divisive and it was fun for while. Now we are on a new path and in the process of reacquiring bonuses in easier locations while supporting our friends around the world. USAF is now an organization that resembles a well-oiled machine. The survey there was successful and the voices have been heard.

All has not exactly gone to plan. I suppose nothing is perfect and there is only so much time in a day. Admittedly, my media presence has suffered for the time spent working in other arenas in the executive offices. I apologize for that and hope that everyone has at least enjoyed the times I have had the time to publish. I vow to do better with that.

I started May with the intention of only spending one month in the Oval Office. As time progressed, it became apparent that I would not be able to finish what I started in just one month. Those I have worked with have made it a pleasure and very enjoyable. They work hard and know how to get results. A lot of long hours and clever thought goes into running this country and I couldn’t have asked for a better group of people.

I would like to take a bit of your time to officially announce my candidacy for president in the coming election on June 5th. Thank you all my supporters and friends. Thank you also to everyone who constructively criticizes me and my administration. Your input is valuable and I do read every comment.

there will be some shuffling and some new people coming into the administration. Please look for my next article with information on what’s in store for next month!

Please give this a shout!

How are you going to work on the things that you could not achieve? You went in with an extremely media heavy campaign and promised us articles from departments like NSC, yet not a single article has been produced by them, even if they have had a very lax time this month. Along with no media coverage there have been poor execution from them, will you finally look into the problems that we suffer from in the NSC?

Kemal Ergenekon Day 2,383, 16:11

CP candidates do not directly engage in propaganda under the articles of other candidates. It is one of the unwritten rules of courtesy in eRepublik. Poor form...

HeapSeppo Day 2,383, 16:13

Sorry that I point out problems that we've faced.

Kemal Ergenekon Day 2,383, 16:14

Re-read my post and try to understand.

Hampton H. Hampton Day 2,383, 16:29

Kemal being rude, must be a day that ends in "Y"

Kemal Ergenekon Day 2,383, 16:44

Re-read my post and try to designate the rudeness.

Kooguy Day 2,383, 16:49

Kemal for him to re-read it he would need to have read it in the first place.

The Original Hawkie Day 2,383, 11:00

Got my vote.

Heluin Day 2,383, 11:41

So let me get this straight...

You called people arguing against the Canadian war "traitors" and only a few weeks later you accept a white peace from them that left us with absolutely nothing to show for months of fighting.

Your (and your predecessors, to be fair) diplomatic blunders have cost us our position within Sirius, seriously harming our national security and hurting our stature on the international stage.

...and we're supposed to re-elect you? Why? This post is rife with fuzzy language and political doublespeak. The truth of the matter is that the eUSA is in a significantly worse position today than we were on 4/30/2014, and you haven't provided one concrete achievement that you, not your Cabinet, have accomplished. I voted for you in the last election and I am sure your tenure has been difficult, but I will not vote for you a second time.

Tyler Bubblar Day 2,383, 13:43

Molly never called anyone traitors. Find me a screen shot. Also find a viable alternative. There isn't one. Seppo is in my books a decent dude, but has been out of the loop for sometime. It's easy to criticize those who are doing the work when you're on the outside.

Jude Conners Day 2,383, 13:55

Tyler is right... Molly never called us traitors. I would know as I was the lead vocal opposition to the Canadian War since Day One.

Molly did the right thing and pulled us out of Canada, however. I would also like to see some plans on what she wants to achieve with a second term and if there will be any changes to the Cabinet, however.

Heluin Day 2,383, 14:13

[removed]

Heluin Day 2,383, 14:14

I went looking and I cannot find a comment from her calling anyone a "traitor" in any of the articles I remember reading. I rescind the accusation. However the I still think that a white peace was utterly ridiculous when a few weeks earlier Canadian leadership had floated offers that included rent free territory.

HeapSeppo Day 2,383, 15:02

It's easy to figure out who are considered to be "unapologetic canadian sympathizers" who sides with the enemy.

Also since you're SoH, may I post a screenshot of a very small part of text that really isn't needed to be secret from the private congress where she directly claims that I am loyal to Canada and not eUS?

Lemon Vodka Day 2,383, 16:11

I don`t know about being loyal to Canada, but you`re most definitely not loyal to the US.

I mean behind your smokescreen, of course.

Tyler Bubblar Day 2,383, 16:15

Seppo I'm Speaker for a few more hours basically. Ask the next one. I'm likely too biased for Molly to objectively answer. My inclination is no screen shots out of private Congress.

Code-Y Day 2,383, 11:50

Don't worry Molly, you got AMP's support.

Mr YYY Day 2,383, 11:53

"it became apparent that I would not be able to finish what I started in just one month"

What? You want to destroy USA's Foreign Affairs at all? Come on, just face the things, USA with you on the command, and the Gnilraps was the worst USA in months. You still have the highest work tax between the bigger eCountries, you were expanded from your own alliance, because you continue to refuse to enter in the war against Asteria.

Poland was in the war (vs Serbia, Slovenia, Romania, Hungary)
Croatia (vs Slovenia, Hungary, Serbia)
Turkey (vs Slovenia)
UK got wiped twice
Spain is wiped

And you? You NE Japan for bonuses? How typical ... just leave and take those shitty FA politics with yourself.

what4 Day 2,383, 12:48

Why are our new buddies the Canadians attacking Michigan?

klop123 Day 2,383, 13:51

Auto attack, we're not fighting there though.

Oblige Day 2,383, 14:19

Y DMV let it go to Auto Attack?

Evil.Elvis Day 2,383, 13:51

auto attack.

Bashher Day 2,383, 16:29

Them are some free fights for you guys to get some BH metals, rack up some damage for your country and not damage the overall withdrawl. Its no biggie.

I hope our leaders stage a few friendly battles between us when no important fights going on...

Tyler Bubblar Day 2,383, 13:40

I also fully support Molly for reelection.

Jude Conners Day 2,383, 13:57

I would like to see goals for the new term and a list of any changes to the Cabinet.

Oblige Day 2,383, 14:20

This month has been a huge disappointment.

Please do not be Gnilraps Mark II.

Cubby Day 2,383, 14:57

the Mark III was better but I just ordered a GH4 with Speedbooster!

Kemal Ergenekon Day 2,383, 16:13

Still better than Oblige Mark V and VI xdxd

Israel Stevens Day 2,383, 14:22

Will there be a MoFA this month?

Deepchill Day 2,383, 14:47

Full support.

Whiskey Jack Day 2,383, 15:22

Honestly, given the steaming s***pile in FA that Molly Emma had to deal with, I doubt that anyone could have done better. I would like to see some discussion around how we approach foreign affairs in the future, as I believe that we need to seriously rethink how we deal with those issues. That is no small task for any CP and cabinet however, and we will need congress to go along with any proposed new direction. Given all that, I would like to see Molly Emma get another term.

TL😉R: ME4CP II

Jasher Day 2,383, 15:30

No vote

Shave1 Day 2,383, 17:30

well, im new to this game, but seems to me we have alot of work to do in foreign affairs. and being new im in no position to critique whats been done thus far. that being said, I would think that in our present position on the world stage a partnership with a Block of other nations would be preferable as we are a larger nation, and therefore we tend to stick out like a sore thumb. while i admit I have no knowledge of exactly what went wrong with the Sirius alliance, I do believe that if trust is ever to be established within the international community, especially those we deem Allies, and a solid moral high ground to be solidified, it is imperative that we be seen keeping true to our international commitments. walking away from a treaty, weather by choice or neglect sets the clear picture that when things get tough, the U.S,A gets going. while a NAP with Argentina under normal circumstances would be a smart way to go, selling out our allies for it most certainly is not, and begs the question, what if anything will we stand for? if indeed that is what actually happened. and please forgive me if I have misunderstood. I personally would like to see a little more work go into our diplomatic channels and our relationship with our allies become alot more stable and centered around loyalty, rather then what simply suits us at the moment. also where Canada was concerned. just a thought, but secure borders is definitely the way to go. why not work at some kind of mutual pact between us and Canada, maybe even mexico if its possible. take our place in the world from a north american stance. of course im not in any government position, and dont have any knowledge of where exactly these countries stand, but I am certain if the right ambassadors took it on and even over time worked on bettering those relationships, it could be done.form a north american Union of sorts. just a thought. hope i didnt step on anyone' toes or offend anyone. 🙂 just trying to get into the game.
