[AMP] End of the Road - Finale PP Address
John Killah
The Music that you should DEFINITELY listen to while reading this article!
WARNING: THIS IS HUGE (that's what she said) YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
The end is upon us … for the term
And so here it is … the final Party Presidential Address that will come from me behind this desk that not many people have really ever seen … Ok, well nobody’s really seen since it’s mainly in my mind xD.
First, i’d just like say, I know this term hasn’t lived up to people's expectations. In fact, i’ve been hearing from a couple of people that they feel it’s as bad as Israel’s 3rd term. I think if they’d have said that in a prior time, i’d of gone ballistic at them, told them they have no idea what they’re talking about etc. But I didn’t, in fact, I did agree with them. This term has been a disappointment.
There’s something that everybody knows, but not many people have experienced. They say power corrupts, and I know that if I asked anyone about what they think of that, they’d agree. But we all naively believe that we can be the exception. I myself thought that maybe, I wouldn’t get corrupted. But I did. People understand the concept but they never really understand how easy it is to fall to said concept.
My judgement became clouded by the positions I was in. I think nobody will have any trouble saying I made some interesting and questionable decisions. I will still apologise for the way I went about a couple of them, but I will stand by my actions. It wasn’t till after CP Elections I looked back and saw the clouds lifted and I realised how far i’d deviated from who I was. Now, i’m not sure if anyone noticed, but I know one person you can ask who would agree that I understood what had happened and that I went about trying to salvage what was left of the term.
Now, I know you will not have agreed with my choices. Hell, I know quite a lot of you have been very vocal in disagreeing with me and my choices. I disappointed a lot of you, I’m sorry for that. But if there’s one thing I can say, it’s this - The outcome of this term, is something I hope will happen. You, the party spoke, and you disagreed with what was going on. For the first time in a while, I saw some of you stand up and say “That’s not right”.
I ask those of you that did … take it one step further. To be vocal is a good start, but understand that words alone cannot change things. Go beyond that … Start to get involved INSIDE the party. Never once have I seen someone turned away from a deputy position for trivial reasons. Work to have a say in the direction of the party beyond being a member. Not going to lie, sometimes, it’s a crapshoot. But if you can try and help the party, isn’t that what counts?
So my hope is that if there is any good to come out of this term, it’s that the party becomes a bit more united in its attempts to steer the party in the right direction and that new people who felt wrong by the term to make attempts to steer the newfound united party the right way.
Never sit back and expect others to do what you wish … Grab that bull by the horns, and wrestle it into submission! Work your ass off and be rewarded!
Be true AMPers … Because AMPer’s don’t quit. We’re resiliant sons of b****es and we won’t rest until we’re where we belong at the top of the political party pile. Don’t do this for me, or for the past … do it for the future … for the party. For yourself.
AMP’s bringing more than amps now, they’re bringing the ATO!
The title here speaks for itself doesn’t it. I don’t know about anyone else, but i’m lusting for a bit of blood …
RLC BLOOD!
Now, lets review the facts -
* They gained many congress seats last election at the expense of some decent candidates.
* They then used those seats to bring in additional “undesirables” into the country
* These undesirables have only one goal in mind - The destruction of the US
* A US Citizen who ran under RLC can atest that he was asked by their elections people that should he win, he would have to agree to use his Citizenship Passes however their people wanted them used … NOT HOW IES WANTED THEM USED
* And the coup de grâce - http://www.erepublik.com/en/main/law/USA/113398
For those of you who didn’t click the link, it’s a donation law. Pretty simple right? Well, it would be … IF IT WAS GOING TO GO TO THE CBO. This law didn’t ask for that … It asked for 400,000 USD to be donated to … Narodna Banka Srbije. Doesn’t take a genuis to translate that as NATIONAL BANK OF SERBIA (Oh, I double checked by the way, that is DEFINITELY the translation.)
So an RLC congressman wanted OUR country to donate 400k to HIS country? Does that sound right and fair to you? No, doesn’t me either.
So I said enough is enough. At the first opportunity, I agreed to help a national ATO against the RLC. I’ve had enough of the wrong congressmen getting in … I’ve had enough of rogue proposals meant to hurt us … I’ve had enough of Pizza and his serbian slaves trying to do what they want.
This month, I’m asking all decent US Citizens who want to stand up with me, to say that this HAS TO STOP. This is not about elites trying to keep the opposition down, this isn’t about trying to stop competitors in time for congress elections.
NO
This is about TRYING to stop OUR COUNTRY becoming a slave to an ENEMY NATION.
If you don’t want to participate, fine. I’m sure you have your reasons. But I hope you can live with the knowledge that if this month fails, you can expect to see MORE of the above … but alot WORSE. Sure you can argue that this is the “elitists fault” and “they had this coming”. But what about when people ask, ”Where were you?” … Where were you when you had the opportunity to HELP your nation. To help correct these wrongs you see the elites doing? Will you really stand by and let the country burn? Because I can safely say if you do, you won’t be looked at afterwards as heroes … you will be seen as indecisive and hesitant.
I will do what I have to do for my country. I will not do this for fame. I will not do this for other people.
My question is - Will you?
ERICS’ BIGGEST GAME NIGHT EVER!
I know I usually do these … but this is it … the big one.
This is Eric’s LAST Games Night as Retention Director. He’s been amazing, hell, he used to get frustrated when we had low numbers turning up and when he couldn’t get some of the game scripts going. Why? Because he wanted you all to have fun.
And he plans to go out with one of the biggest bangs in AMP Fun History! I think this may even eclipse my last Games Night xD
He’s gone all out … Nearly 30 gold (To be distributed as 10 gold and the rest in USD Equivalent ofc), 500 Different units of food … and 60 brand-spanking-new Q7 tanks!
So come on over to #amp.games tomorrow night at 16:00 eRep … and play for prizes!
And that … is the end of my term ...
John Killah - American Military Party, Party President (For the last time … for now maybe)
Not part of the AMP? WHY NOT?

I ownz the AMP games.
Voted!
tl;dr
Thanks for the time you've put into making this party better, John!

You were a real asset for the AMP, JK. I haven't observed any wrong decisions on your part other than the Oblige affair, so I think you are being too harsh on yourself. You did a terrific job overall from what I observed as an outsider.

FIST
Fun Fact:
The most numerous foreign group in the RLC are Romanians, not Serbians.
Also a fun fact, you are a liar and this will be met with a stern response.
You can't even spell REALIZE right... go back to the UK with Artela you ONE immigrant. At least the Serbs can spell the way we do when they write....
Anyway, I love how you think you know how I think. I've never wanted to destroy the USA... I want people like you and your dear friend Pfeiffer to stop having power.
and I am very open about the fact that I want us to be closer to COT and MPP countries like Chile.. I make no apologies for it. It doesn't mean I want to see the US wiped and bankrupt, which is what you are suggesting....
I have tried to befriend AMP so many times... but unfortunately people like you and Israel keep getting in power and let Pfeiffer manipulate you... sad really.... apparently not much in the way of brains.
55 Minutes - You're getting slow Pizza 🙂
You dissapointed me this term JK, but I'm not worried. The AMP will endure and continue to thrive. And I'm not worried about yourself, althought you strayed into territory that you might have regretted, I know you're still a good guy inside. Furthermore, you have your worth and I'm sure you will be able to do great things in whatever you will want to accomplish next.
Good Job JK, Glad to see the RLC ATO effort taking center stage.
"They say power corrupts, and I know that if I asked anyone about what they think of that, they’d agree. But we all naively believe that we can be the exception."
Corruption is a choice, not a destiny.
Good job mate
kanka anlamadım ama arkandayım vote ladım la
John, as one of the folks who has been an outspoken individual regarding the failures of the term, You Sir, have my utmost respect for being a grown man, and acknowledging your shortcomings in an environment where most people make excuses, and attempt to throw responsibility for failure on others, but take praise for success onto themselves, regardless of whether or not its due to them.
Takes a big man to do what you did here, much respect.
Ajay, John Killah has never been an eUK resident and never will be if I have anything to say about it. ONE does not even exist anymore. The fact is that JK is my brother and if I ask him to do something serious, he will more than likely listen to me above all others. He is not a Pfeiffer tool, I highly doubt he ever will be so get that one out of your head please.

i like potatos

"But what about when people ask, ”Where were you?” … Where were you when you had the opportunity to HELP your nation."
where were you when they built the ladder too heaven?
v
the solution is for all you elitist to step down and let new blood take the bull by the horns without your influence. You elitist are the ones screwing things up with your monopoly of power. Even when you elitist resign you still try to influence your replacements to continue along your path. And i am sick of hearing the new blood doesnt understand the game enough to make decisions. elitist all share one common denominator, selfish ego's. So when RLC and pth take over we know who to blame.
I'm an elitist? Wow, I never got my courtesy membershp card yet o.O
Of course we know who to blame. We blame the people trying to take over our country, led by the serbians in the RLC.
@Slyk Willy
"So when RLC and pth take over we know who to blame."
you do realize that half of the article was dedicated toward ATO right? that JK is one of the few people who's actually trying to STOP the PTO.
The RLC is a bunch of PTOers, and these are their trolls. You can't beat them in a conversation or debate.
LOL, so im an RLC troll now, lmao, i guess i can add that to the list next to traitor and the other titles I have received over the months

Aww look, Pizza loves me so much, he keeps commenting :3
lol at this xenophobic crap
At least you could have done it without buying Polish votes.
We are all just some pixels here, don't let those pixels make you a lesser man.

Coming from the person who said that the RLC doesn't do primaries for who the RLC backs for CP because people will do whatever the RLC's "leadership" says. Oh the irony. Let them voice their opinions if you're so sure of them doing what you say.
We don't do them because a single LEGITIMATE member has never cared...
I have done them in the past. It is a waste of time because everyone knows that for CP we need the person with the most name recognition and the best chance of winning.
Having said that... I have a personal relationship with every single member.
You think Pfeiffer cares about his members interests and who they are as individuals?
ummm, no?
^ of course he doesn't. he's an ass.
but all that prooves is that Pfeiffer's an ass.....nothing else.
So stop helping him...
If you guys were worried about HIM, we could jointly take over USWP
Now rumor has it Pfeiffer will be USWP PP .. AGAIN
I guess his failures in eSim have driven him back to eep
LOL. Unlike RLC, the USWP does hold primaries - and he was the designated candidate that came out of that process. We know he cares about the party, and that's all that matters to our party for who should lead it, not the insane ramblings of those outside of the party filled with petty jealousy and envy 🙂
^ That's funny.
We say the same thing Mrs. Pfeiffer,... I mean.. Artela.
