My Interview with Presidential Candidate St Krems

Day 984, 13:14 Published in USA USA by yono

I got some time to sit down with Krems and ask him some questions. We covered 6 topics.

Yono: After the citizenship scandal,you were fired from several government offices and you were just a senator. Why should we trust you as POTUS?

Krems: I wasn't actually a senator at the time. I was involved at the fring of some people allowing GLaDOS into the country. As I was a high ranking cabinet member I was made an example of. I was proven correct a few days later when GLaDOS renounced his citizenship to go back to the eUK, as I said he would. I think my long record of government service speaks for my trustworthyness.

Yono: What positions have you held that would qualify you as a competant administrator?

Krems: Administration has been my strong point in this game. My first meaningful position was COngressional Whip, who's task was to organise congress for two months. I then served 4~ months as deputy Chief of staff under various presidents, effectively doing the grunt work of running the government and then I got a shot at Chief of Staff under HR which really gave me the chance to effectively sit as co-acting president.

Yono: If elected,whats your first priority?

Krems: My first priority will be to set up negotiatons for the regions I want to rent/rent out as well as begin gathering the people for the new departments I have planned, specifically a new intelligence gathering branch and the Economic Council.

Yono:As an ambassador, I learned that diplomacy and negotiation are a key skill,how will you expand the role of diplomacy in your administration?

Krems: I'm creating the position of MoFA (Minister of Foreign Affairs) who will act as my negotiator in chief. The position of Secretary of State will remain but he will be tasked with running the actual state department thereby freeing up the MoFA to focus on his job more effectively.

Yono:What system will you use to pick your appointees,will you be trying to get your political allies into power or will you be looking at individual skill?

Krems:As I said in my announcement article, I will be doing blind picks from an open questionairre and application sheet. I encourage everyone to apply, the link can be found in this threa😛http://eusforum.com/index.php/topic,27031.0.html

Yono: If you only get one of your goals accomplished during your term. Which would you prefer it`d be?

Krems:I'd like to get our country making gold again. It's a little known fact that we are broke right now. V2 is all about which country has the strongest economy, I plan to make sure it is us.
