[TC4PP] Gameplan and Response to YBMD
•
by Tom Cauchon
Dear Comrades,
This is my second article of my Party President campaign for the month of December. Ya Boi D Money has written an article refuting my list of grievances with our party. You can find that article here. Before I respond to that, I’d like to refresh you on my big points and platform for the next month that I’d like to tackle:
1.Work with the Executive to identify a place for SFP on the next SCI opening. Currently, SFP does not have a member on SCI to my knowledge. This is an important group that SFP would have traditionally had access to as a T5 party. However, because we can’t be trusted by the other parties, we no longer have access to this group.
2.Create an ambassador program, each ambassador being an SFP ambassador to another eUS Political Party. Ambassadors will be sent to the Feds, USWP, WTP, BSP, AMP, and OhFU to speak to their leaderships about finding common grounds and making compromises.
3.Discuss with WTP and BSP to support one of their candidates in the next Congressional SoH election. I recently ran for SoH and I am still in deep appreciation of the support we received from WTP, BSP, and other scattered party members. We only came up 4 votes short of defeating the Fed/USWP coalition last month. I think it is time to return that favor to our friends, should they wish to run.
4.Identify positions within the Executive that can be filled by hard-working and well-informed SFP party members. I will work with Ilene Dover to identify which of our members would be suited to work with the Executive and we will work to get these members in the appropriate departments as deputies during the current term and in the next POTUS term.
5.Recreate SFP Official Media. It is currently lacking and contains little content that is appealing to anyone outside of SFP. This should be one of our biggest recruiting methods. I plan on creating a team, headed by a competent individual that will staff a once-a-week media publication of SFP Official Media.
6.Bring back “SFP Comrade of the Week”. This was a fun contest I had developed in my most previous SFP Chairman term, where I chose which SFP comrade had made the biggest impact on the Party/Nation and rewarded them with gifts!
7.Continue to with our Congressional Delegation to push higher funding for DoCA, and in turn, larger supply programs for younger players. Doubling all program supply drops would be a good goal to start with.
Now, I’d like to address YBDM’s comments in his most recent article. I’m happy that YBDM finally got the inspiration to actually write an article instead of posting a YouTube video with a click bait title about Ilene.
Right out of the gate, I’m going to ask you to take that article down because you’ve linked two videos that are titled with racial slurs. I’m not going to turn a blind eye to that.
I’d like to start by saying that I am not, nor will I ever be, Cerb lite. Cerb chose to work outside of our party framework and failed in that regard. I was one of his biggest critics, but if you took the time to actually listen to some of his more moderate ideas, they weren’t half bad.
YBDM you talk a lot about being a revolutionary and how I’m trying to cozy up with the “elite”. Let me put it this way: “what have you done that is revolutionary?”
In my mind, you haven’t done a single thing.
And this isn’t just about YBDM, this is reflective of our entire party. What have we done in the past 6 months to be revolutionary? Complained? Cried? Whined? Jude Connors would be shaking in his boots if he saw what we have become.
We’ve become a party that lacks the ability to become revolutionary.
And you accuse me of cozying up to the elite? Should I remind that I was Party President of SFP and sanctioned a coup against the Government. I landed myself on the blacklist that day.
I was Party President and ran a blacklisted WookyJack during my third PP term. I was immediately censured and discarded from Congress like a piece of trash.
I’ve weathered a lot in my day.
I’ve tried to be revolutionary in a thousand different ways, and I’m telling you all, this path DOES NOT WORK.
If we truly want to enact change, we HAVE TO BE DIFFERENT.
If you want to be a part of an actual team that will attempt to achieve actual goals this month, then vote for me, Tom Cauchon.
If not, then go back to whining and vote for someone else.

We did a few exceptional things this month. You were part of one of them. You nearly pulled an upset, over the favored SoH.
like play both sides...
At least I'm not the last one to get picked.
Not to be contradictory, but a close election is not the same as the result being in question.
That was about the only thing we did, and we still failed.
TO BE FAIR...the favored SoH was Tenshibo.
Not exactly a denizen of unity and universal likability.
I never questioned the results, but I know someone who did.
You sound a lot like I sounded during my time with SFP.
I wish you success.
It's hard to come by rational thoughts in SFP these days...
This sounds like what I learned a long time ago. Affecting change is possible. You just have to go about it in a way that will garner support. Tom Cauchon is good people in my book.
" I will work with Ilene Dover to identify which of our members would be suited to work with the Executive..."
Who the f ***are you to make this call?
Questioning party leadership trying to place those who'd be a good fit into the executive is an odd move, this doesn't read to me like "block people we don't like" but every party leadership should be concerned with placing their best and brightest into national leadership roles. That's one of the most essential roles a party plays in the eUS
Fine, but doesn't answer the question. Who's he to decide about that?
Thanks Paul. Another point on top of that, if you really like working with media, we can get you into a media position. Or if you have a good understanding of FA, our leadership can work to get a deputy slot for him/her next month. Everyone is, of course, able to work outside the bounds of the party, but using people in SFP with experience in the executive is a great way to get a foot in the door. It's becoming harder and harder to get into the Executive with a shrinking game.
And also Phil, you're hilarious if you think anyone wants you in your cabinet. Good luck on your own.
I have plans to crack that executive door back open in the near future.
Still now answer. Who are you to make this call? You're the hilarious one, thinking about becoming PP after the disaster you've created 2 month ago.

The SFP would rather cut off its own foot and bleed to death than have any meaningful change.
Good start to the party relations, for the month.
I'm not PP until the final vote is cast. And this is not a statement of shit talking, it's an observation, a criticism.
It's just a random insult, thrown at the people who are supposed to be on the same side as you
You really shouldn't invoke Jude when you talk about what SFP should be or be doing. He never got what it was about. If you want to learn about the original SFP, go talk to rainy.
I see what you're saying, but the original OG SFP didn't do s*** either. The SFP that actually got active and was working towards change was the one that existed after the Fed split to SFP.
And that one isn't the SFP. It's a bastardization of the party which was, the few remaining members from those days having sold themselves...and as such, not worthy of the title.
By pointing to Jude and those who came with him, you're pointing to a cheap Xerox copy of the parties you (and others) claim to oppose.
Your God Complex is once again, disturbing. You don't decide who has the right to the SFP name, just like I can't decide that for USWP.
