Day 2,071, 17:25 Published in USA USA by Hale26

[So, Summer School is going okay. I'll be done on Monday, which means I finally get to [s]sleep in[/s] do moar WTP stuff. But nah, you can sure as hell bet I'm sleeping in xD. Nonetheless, the term is going okay so far. Thing will only start really slotting in tom though. Maybe tonight, if we're lucky. I'm sorta swamped in School.]

~Hale26, on his inability to find quotes.


Bonjour, WTP.

Here is our list of congressional candidates this month. Based on how much you like each candidate, you will be voting them on a preferential ballot. From there they will be organized accordingly on the congress rooster, minus spots we may give to Sixth Parties.

Beside each candidate's name is a score from their test, unless they were in the last cacaus. 

Anyways, onto the article ~

Are you willing to use IRC ?
Yes, and I use IRC frequently

Have you reqed for access to WTP Private ?
Yes

Why do you want to be a congressman?
When I had initially learned about this game and saw all the different elements in it, I decided I wanted to get involved in the political ones as well. Congress naturally seemed to be the first place to start for me. It'd be cool to get involved in this game's government first hand.

What sets you apart as a congressman?
I would bring a fresh, unbiased perspective into congress. While I have a lot to learn about this game and it's history, in certain senses that's an advantage. I have no ties to anyone or any party to have any biases.

In RL, I'm pretty patriotic. I, obviously, also enjoy a good video game. Thus, I'll be objective in trying to progress the eUSA in the ways I genuinely see fit.

Also, I'm nice as hell with math, so being a part of budgets will be relatively easy for me.

And if elected, I'll be keeping a record of my votes and actions. Transparency is important to give people a reason to get behind and support any candidate for any office.

I consider myself to be an open minded person. If I have a certain position on an issue and someone can come up with a compelling argument against it, I'll shift my position. I understand being in congress is essentially being in a team. While I will fight for what I believe in, I'm also open to change given legitimate reasons to.

What positions/roles have you held in WTP ?
Officially, I hold no positions nor have I in the past. I've written an article on WTP's Presidential Primaries and plan to write about events in the party regularly. In the near future, I'll also be helping out with recruiting. Unofficially, I'm a journalist/recruiter for WTP I suppose one could say.

What eUS Past Experience do you have ?
None. This would be my first position/role. I have no prior experience in any form of leadership or anything outside basic member.

Are you interested in pursuing a congress Leadership Position ?
