[LSD] The hard results of the CP election.
•
by LSD Party Centre
Libertarian Social Democrats members,
We will not talk about the election results, you can find them here.
First of all we would like to thank Shakerr for his activity and time he did put into his candidacy. As the outcome of the % of votes* is very low it give us a good hope for the future with a candidate that almost got elected! Shakerr thank you! 
Our new elected Country President.
The LSD is really worried about the new country elected president. We (and also many other citizens) know he is a very experienced and capable men for this job. However, we all hear and notice that this our country is dying*. And what is our CP doing?
It looks like he is killing our country even more.
Let us give the two most important points:
- First of all we didn’t see any report, article or communication towards the citizens last term. This is very sad. Not because we want to see it, but because our citizens need it. If we want to become a active country again*, the CP/gov and parties have to show that to new citizens.
- Second is related to the first point. We didn’t see any campaign for the last elections. We use the same argument as the first point for this. Show your activity, and get others active!* Especially in this time of inactivity in our country we need to show (new) citizens that there is a active community (CP/GOV/Parties)
* We based this on the statistics of last CP election votes:
Future.
We don’t want to ‘blame’ our CP for the current situation, but atleast we demand from him to show more activity towards the country and citizens. If not, the LSD is forced to start a impeachment. Something we do not favour at all, so lets hope our CP will take notice.
LSD members behaviour.
Last point we want to talk about in this article is the behaviour of our partymembers. The LSD clearly will not accept any incorrect behaviour! We have seen in the past that opinions of individual members really harm the LSD. With this we don’t mean you may not debate or have discussions any more. But please, we ask you to think twice, or even more, before commenting. And always try to debate with arguments vs arguments instead of looking at a name or partymembership!

Just my 2 cents and no I am not LSD bashing...
The question is, what can the CP do? Especially in a coalition gov, the ministers are not chosen by the CP but congress. The ministers deal with baby booms etc. All in all, the CP is just a head of state in which his powers in the game are declaring wars, embargo, constructions, and MPP's. CP represent the state and nation in the alliance. So think of the CP as the chief MoFA. Due to the role of CP it tends to focus on MoFA while congress on the domestic, the institution is problematic in most if not all governments in the eWorld.
The oneness of the CP also makes the nation focus upon him/her. The CP while they have the power to influence, it really does not have any real hard power. However, most people expect many things from the CP, from baby booms to wars etc. Overall such views of the CP is not realistic and that ministers and congress alike should step up and help the president and the nation to get a baby boom.
The CP alone can write articles etc, but what is most needed at this time is not the CP to do everything, but the CP to be the chief manager while the ministers and congress unite and start working. The CP is just one man with limited powers. The real power is that of the ministers and congress and they need to step up as well.
Blaming the CP for the low acitivity is just easier then pointing to the government (who is really in charge).
Dear Mitch and Konrad. Read, read, read and read again:
"We don’t want to ‘blame’ our CP for the current situation, but atleast we demand from him to show more activity towards the country and citizens."
I agree with you Konrad the the CP have limited powers in the way how the government work in this country. And the LSD don't say that the CP should bring us a Babyboom, we have a special team for that.
However, citizens are now wondering what the CP is doing, and a small article (what TimV have wrote today) is enough to show them what he is doing.
I talk to tim daily on irc, I see him participate (within his own timezone) in the private phx channels. He is not a spokesperson from the government, he is someone that does high level defense and foreign affairs. There is little need to report on that imo.
