[NAZ4POTUS] Unity, Announcement, And A Start
Azazel Romanov
Before I go into detail on this, I want everyone to know that we have the opportunity to have free elections this month, but first we must ensure the party “American Freedom Alliance NEW” is completely out of the Top 5 parties. This feat is accomplishable this month, but we are going to require your help.
Whatever you think about unity, no one can argue that Unity should continue if the entire top 5 is held by Americans. Currently, this means we just need that gap to be filled, and we get free elections this month. No Unity, No Games, No Rigging, Just Elections. If you're not sitting in any party right now, join the American Freedom Alliance (The one with the avatar.) This is not a trick, AFA is currently held by Derphoof who is a friendly.
Unity process will still be occuring to ensure we could use it if necessary, but we can work to make sure we have a free election this month that hopefully everyone can enjoy and partipate in just like old times.
I know some of you have been expecting this for some time, so I decided it was finally time to put speculation, rumor, and chat to rest. I had desired to run when I was settled back at home, and had time to fully prepare myself for the responsibility this role requires. I've had a long and interesting journey to reach this point, and have finally decided to put my focus to one of the last bits of uncharted territory for me. Before going into more detail, I realize the time commitment, effort, and dedication this job requires. For the next month, you will have my attention. I will be running for President of the United States for the month of August.
For starters, I'd like to introduce myself to those who may not know me. I have served in government the past several months in various roles. I started out as Media Secretary for two months, making sure the WHPR was published 2 to 3 times a week with various segments and information for citizens. I then moved on to become Domestic Advisor overseeing operations of Interior, Education, and Media for President Fingerguns alongside Duncan Crowe. After taking a breather for a month, I became Deputy Secretary of State under President Vanek26 and organized our peace agreement with Taiwan that lasted until the outbreak of the current World War. I then moved on to become Secretary of State under President Artela, and directed our relations with Circle of Trust and other various allies, which lead me to become CoT Military Commander halfway through my term, which meant directing US foreign affairs and CoT military policy at the same time, a hard balance to achieve. Following my service to CoT, I rejoined President Paul Proteus' term as Deputy Secretary of State, assisting my former deputy Derphoof in foreign affairs. Throughout this time I have also served several terms in congress assisting with various issues.
So now, here I am. I have served our government in various positions, and I have lent my service to our allies as well, and now I want to fulfill the ultimate service to my country. I have not always sought to attain positions of responsibility, and I never accept them when I know I cannot perform at my fullest. I know our country faces several challenges. We are still embroiled in a World War started two months ago. The occupation of our country continues. We face challenges of retention, communication, and our military structure is facing obstacles to full efficiency. We stand at a crossroads in foreign affairs, and while we have our obligations abroad the world is still changing. The PTO of our nation is losing strength and we will have to finish the fight and then repair, rebuild, and remake our country’s cohesion and tone after many months of sacrifices made by unity. Being the leader of the nation at this moment is not a prize, it is a challenge. In time, I will seek to address all of these issues during my campaign and during my administration. I may not have a cure-all solution to every problem our country faces, but I will promise my focus on these issues and a full attempt to address each and every situation.
It is traditional for me to announce a leadership team as I go forward. In a following article, I will announce my full cabinet, but for now I will inform you of my choices for my government's executive. First up is the second-slot. It is traditional for Vice President to be a political grab to gain support. While accepting that has influenced my choice, I refuse that this should be the only reason. I also need someone I can trust and rely on. For that reason, I have chosen rainy sunday to be my Vice President.
I needed someone to balance me out, and since I've been mostly foreign policy and military oriented lately, I needed someone who has been more focused at home. Most recently serving as our Speaker of the House and Director of Ambassador Affairs, rainy sunday has been involved in many facets of American governance, and hopefully with her I can remain strong at home and abroad. I need a partner to govern, and I have full confidence that rainy sunday will fulfill this role.
Also, I should announce who will be maintaining my cabinet for me in the next month. I needed another person I could trust and rely on in this role, and fortunately enough for me, the person matching this is already on the job. For my Chief of Staff, I have chosen Josh Frost to remain at his stead.
I know people aren't a fan of holdovers, but sometimes continuity provides some bonuses. Not only will this ensure a smoother transition, I know I can count on Frost's support in running the country. I've been impressed with his activity this month, and he has always been a good sounding board for me in making decisions. This is the right choice for me, and I know he'll ensure my cabinet remains focused alongside my leadership and keep me in line and on task.
I'll release my full cabinet along with a platform in a few days, but first I want to ask something of you. While I have definitely made some picks already, I want to involve people where I can, but I need to know who is interested in participating. If you are interested in getting active, please fill out this application. Included in the application is a space for you to give thoughts about what you'd like to see happen or accomplished next month. Before you all rush to suggest I put our country back on the map, I'd also like to see suggestions relating to issues of military coordination, communication, education, or foreign policy.
I look forward to speaking more on my cabinet and plans, and feel free to drop me a line in-game or if I'm on IRC. Thanks for giving this wall-of-text a read, and I look forward to hearing from you..

Will you have enough time for the game? Because you failed as MC of CoT
I have enough time set aside for PotUS, yes. I have already admitted my mistakes as CoT MC here: http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/communication-is-the-language-of-leadership-2282825/1/20
I apologize for my shortcomings there, but it was a confluence of factors including those outside my control as well as my own personal failings.
It's good to see someone is apologizing and says that he has done some mistakes, good luck as a Poteus

Using a defeated pto threat as the boogeyman to perpetuate unity is poor move, I think I can already read the next unity chosen CP article saying that as far as there are foreigners in USA unity will exist...
Anyways great choice for VP and Good Luck.
go back to your homelands already my servian friend
learn to speak english
Really? Learn to speak english is what you have to say? You mad bro?
good luck
Good luck, Naz 😃
Good luck. Three solid leaders.
Good luck!
The boogieman will always exist! Stamp out one and another will appear. Unity is the way to enslave the masses.
It's gonna be a Nazi state.
What do you mean gone to a Nazi State, I think it pretty much already is....
Naz-i
DOH...I get it...slow sometimes am I....
Israel, Hale,Owl and Greene. They are the party presidents who must decide whether their parties will do the Unity thing again. Each candidate has to decide if he wants to be involved in it. Each candidate for president has an opportunity now to demonstrate actual leadership on this issue.
Unless I'm missing a lot of "lurkers" in other parties, RGR can count on about 300/350 votes out of a total to be cast of something like 2200/2500. Why are you afraid? Why do you need a "guarantee". Why do you have to wait until he can not be a candidate to run a normal in game election.
Are you trapped by old thinking, which may have been appropriate months ago ? Why not go forward in a new spirit of vigour, health, optimism, and ferocious courage and beat him at the ballot box? That would be something to be proud of.
I reluctantly mention that if you are going to break out of the sad status quo of no bonus, no tiles, it might be well to actually believe in yourselves. I believe in Team eUSA: now, execute.
kind regards
Voted. Good luck Naz.
Rainy Sunday? ERMAGERD
accomplishable ?
How about we have a REAL American President who knows the English language. That's not a word.

Already making RGR look like an idiot. I think your off to a great start Naz 🙂
Loooooooooool accomplishable is a word. You just said not to vote for you since you don't know english.
karma is a bitch sometimes
Jesus H Gomez, you FN even fail as a grammar Nazi; maybe you should run for Volcanic Sacrifice - bet you would take that one hands down....
