[DMJ4Congress] My Platform that I didn't copy from Valiant Thor
Why do you want to be a congressman?
For the wimminz. Er....I think that we have too many morons in congress and I want to help by being a non-moron. I've been involved in many of the recent discussions as part of the DoD, but I tend to keep out of ones that don't involve the DoD as I wasn't in congress. I have opinions related to other issues that I want to be able to influence.

None. I recently joined at the suggestion of Hale. Well, I made a deal with him.
What eUS Past Experience do you have ?
I was in the JCS mil as a Senior Officer in TC for a LONG time. I left there when I returned to the game, an the XO of AF now, and have spent the last three terms as a Dep SoD.

[WTP] Valiant 4 Congress
Why do you want to be a congressman?
I find the political module of the game the most interesting. After joining and being active in WTP, running for Congress is the next step I would like to take. If elected I will be actively participating and will do my best to positively influence the debates. My guideline will always be: what is best for our country and our community. Meeting representatives of other parties and getting to know them better is another motivation regarding my candidacy.
What sets you apart as a congressman?
I am analytic and have the tendency to "think out of the box".
My ideas are sometimes unconventional but I always try to find the shortest and most efficient way to solve an issue. I tend to be a critical thinker who takes all facts into consideration and keeps the long term goals in focus. I like to ask questions because I feel it is good to rethink even the common and obvious truths from time to time.
On the other side I am open-minded and I always take the opinions of others into consideration. Even the most complex problem can be solved through teamwork and by finding a common ground.
What positions/roles have you held in WTP ?
None.
What eUS Past Experience do you have ?
Current Ambassador to Bosnia and Herzegovina

Lol, in real life I am a therapist. I will use my mind shrinking powers to help the WTP pass laws that are in line with the WTP's ideology and that are in the eUS best interests.

I am not currently working for the party right now, but I would like to change that.

I have been an eAmbassador to the ROC and in a past life to eChina (back before the new format).
