You asked for it.

Mark Morcom asked me why he should vote for me. Which had me thinking. Why should he?
The answer is simple. I don't want him to vote for me. I want him to vote for the people that will be doing the real work this term.

I want him to vote for CyberWitch that will be there to make sure I don't screw up too badly. Or for Chucker in MoS, keeping the fuglies out. I want him to vote for zamrg over at MoD where he's plotting world domination over a doobie. Vote for Enbaros as MoFA so he'd be too busy to molest the turtles...

Yes I have a lot of experience running military units. Yes I served with just about every last US CP for the past 18 months in either Airborne or Marines. Sure, I know most of eIsrael personally by now. People in Romania. Croatia. Poland. The list goes on.

But..

Do not vote for me. Vote for the team behind me.

I do not plan to shake up cabinet if elected. Grim's a smart guy and I would like to keep people in place as much as possible so there can be some form of stability. You spend a month learning the job then just when you have it down, time to move on...

I will not interfere in their departments either. They will be free to run it as they see fit, with minimal input from me. I expect only 2 things: honesty and results. Weekly reports as well.
Ministers that do not perform will get only a single warning and then be replaced by their deputies. This may sound cruel, but people expect them to do a job when voting for them. If they do not perform then they are not worth the trust and position they were put in by the people.

"But we haven't seen much of a platform yet from you"

Well sunshine, we don't have much of a country either. First we have to rebuild it and settle the Brazilian conundrum first. Only then can politicians start with their grandiose lies which we all pretend to believe when we vote for them.

That's my main priority at the moment. Reconstruction and Development.
To that effect I would like to create a Reconstruction and Development ministry whose purpose would be exactly what the name says. Finding ways to rebuild and reconstruct what we lost during the PTO

Another thing which I would like to introduce is accessibility to the President. Where people can go to the man in charge with their ideas and complaints. He takes them to the correct people to solve if he cannot do it himself.

It ain't much of a platform cause we'd rather spend the time working on serious stuff

Good luck to my opponents at the elections
