Vote Paul Hamon for Prime Minster! #2
Paul Hamon
Greetings eAustralians,
As promised here is part two which I think I called, What do I stand for? I know it’s two long and most people will not read it, but here it is anyway.
Personally, I've found that listening to the people around you gives you a best chance of success; multiple viewpoints give you the ability to make the BEST GUESS, which in life is about as correct as you can get!
I have never run an eCountry, I am not an eBureaucrat... All I am is a person that thinks eAustralia has lost its way and needs to be directed. Listening to others and building your opinion is the most important skills a leader can have, and I believe I have it.
We need to help young citizens stay in the game, with a wiki which is a load of useless crap these days, so many people are just dying due to stupid complexities and misinformation, if ADMIN fixed the wiki many more people would become regular players, but they're NOT so it's up to eAustralian Government to educate their own citizens.
We've got an official forum which is about as organised as a box full of keys when you are trying to find information. And more importantly it's not a very welcoming place, people spend their days talking shit, flaming and general not helping eAustralia. New citizens are not contacted, welcomed or made to feel like it is an important part of the game, which it is.
I believe bugger all of the hardcore players, which control the forums and politics in this country, have spent more 5 minutes think about what it's like to be less than 300XP and trying to work this game out and wonder if this is the game for them.
I've got a list of the usually stuff people put in their campaign and personally most of it is just like the others... but in the end this is not what's going to fix eAustralia. I guess the hardcore will argue that this all has nothing to do with country president and could be fixed without running for it, but I think that the eCitizens need to stand up and be counted, support ‘what has always been’ will continue to give us ‘what has always been’.
Time for a change... but just so you don’t think I don’t care about the ‘politics’ this is what I think:
Heath, Education and Reduce Baby Mortality
Everyone knows the PaPP and mine stance on Heath, Education and Reduce Baby Mortality it's been our primary aim since our inception. It's very simple the more babies that grow up into citizens, the stronger the eAustralian economy will be leads to a stronger eAustralia for all.
War and the Military
My opinions about war and the military are less known, regular battles which do not threaten the sovereignty of eAustralia help citizens grow and become strong. In our weakened state after the rapping for a small group of powerful eIndonesian over past months, we need time to recover and grow.
Going to war with eIndonesia on their land is an absolutely crazy plan. We are not strong enough in the LONG TERM, maybe a weeks or two of day battles on our soil we can sustain, but with the endurance the eIndonesian can deliver with the massive populate and bounty of MMPs, we will all be living once again in Tasmania.
It's my firm believe that our oppressors lost interest in eAustralia and started focussing elsewhere, we didn't scare them off, we did not triumph over them... basically we made it a little bit harder and their general interest in eAustralia dropped, so it was him to move on.... and they could return at any stage. We need remember this and focus on rebuilding.
Economy and Business
Lower taxes are essential in the growth and development of our nation. Our nation needs a kick-start to return to a world class economy. Import taxes should be lowered in order to make eAustralia a reasonable choice for exporters. We need to encourage fair pay for fair work and get the economy moving so we build stockpiles, gold and cash. Only though being prepared can we stop what happen, happening again!
To Summarise
If you want things to change you have to elect someone from outside their systems, someone that cares about eAustralia and someone that listen to the young citizens and well as the old.
Please consider me for Country President, I might not be the most experienced, but what I do have is the ability to see eAustralia for what it is. I will work to make it a better place for the young, the old and the confused.
Thank you for listening,
Paul Hamon
President of Procreate and Populate Party

Nice article
Well said. Australia first.
Good luck mate.
I like your policies better than Wallys. Good luck Paul
Voted!
Paul I've got some questions for you.
1. where were you during the pto?
2. papp (your party) was used against Australia, do you feel any responsibility for letting it fall?
I understand you are good with new players and are a new player centric person, but a CP has to deal with all players and needs to be able to handle the clique of veterans who really are foundations of Australia(business owners, fighters and career politicians), for these reasons I think you'd make a better long term minister then CP.
Not to say you can't be CP, I'm just trying to say you need to work with everyone and not alienate parts of the population when we are trying to recover.

two long; didn't read
just busting your balls, voted + subbed, good luck
@UmasterAU ---
(a) I was on a 6-7 month 20,000km campervan trip across Australia. RL was more important than a computer game, was an awesome experience!
(b) Majester did an amazing job of running the PaPP, the PTOer could have grabbed any party they wanted to cause their damage, unfortunately they chose the PaPP.
They could come back tomorrow and take the Pirate Party into the top 5, with no trouble at all. Unfortantely we don't have enough people in a parties in the first place. With 1,600 Citzens and under 250 of them in the top 5 parties. All parties should be working hard to increase participation.
"I believe bugger all of the hardcore players, which control the forums and politics in this country, have spent more 5 minutes think about what it's like to be less than 300XP and trying to work this game out and wonder if this is the game for them."
Y'Know, I remember what it was like. And, it sucked. So I agree.
THANK GOD there were some older peeps and folk on places like IRC that were prepared to help.
Nice platform Paul.
I actually enjoyed the start to the game, exploring all the new communities and trying to figure out all the rules. meeting new players asking questions, learning about irc, what's not to love. You make all players sound helpless and hopeless Paul.
BTW are you planning on responding to any CP candidate debate questions which players have been asking?
@infin I'm sure you did but the wiki was correct and useful at that time, today it's broken and useless... if they stopped putting worring about referals and worried more about retention it'd be a better game. Second questions, Yes!
Voted,good article: )
Something good to read as well : )

I don't really know the political scene that well, but I've looked through the platforms, and you've definitely got my vote tomorrow Paul
I Will vote for you Paul!
Vote Paul Hanon, Vote PaPP at this Prime MInisterial Election!
Good luck Paul, policies sound decent and should benefit Australia quite well.
I've seen Hinokai's an Wally's articles and I've also seen them fight. In this situation you're bringing peace and harmony, I like that. I also like your aims and concern for new players, I think more people should appreciate that. Weel trained and educated newbies can easily grow and form an elite, even if small community. We are known for being small but strong after all, so se should keep that way instead of aiming for war-created baby booms, from which more than half of the players would leave eventually...
Paul Hamon for VP!
Hmm, planning on lowering taxes? Just how does the CP do this when Senate control all the in game tax proposals? Still, looks good on your platform... right?

Paul Hamon for VP!
@UmasterAU look at the bright side: it was PaPP and no other party and maybe the damage was content. If you have an average of 3-500 fake players it doesn't really important what we on this chat are doing... we are not even by the number.
@busflo what?
@paul that trip sounds like hella fun.
The problem is that if one of the smaller parties gets taken over we have a chance of ganging up on it and forcing it out of the top 5 before the elections. Because papp had so many (zombie/dead?)people, even everyone together couldn't force it out of the top 5, especially with multis boosting its number.
Unfortunately I feel we are still not safe, and won't be safe unless all the parties cooperate. Losing our true democracy and simple freedoms sucks, but living under long ptos are worse.
tl;dr version please
