Join the new world

You heard right, I've decided to re-enter the world of politics in the eUS. Although most people know me from my involvement with the military, I'm not completely new to the political world in this game.

For those of you who don't know me, I've spent most of the past year and a half in the world of military affairs.


National Guard
Between February and May 2009, I was in the old United States National Guard learning the ropes, ins and outs of the United States Military.


Army
In May 2009, I transferred to the United States Army, where I would serve a six month term. In the Army Fourth Division, I was the 3rd Platoon XO and then quickly promoted to become 4th Division 4th Platoon's first Commanding Officer. I was later promoted to 4th Division Executive Officer and when 5th Mechanized Infantry Division was created, I became 5th Division's first Commander.

My duties expanded with assisting with the Army High Command's growing need for administrative and logistics assistance. I created a new S-1 through S-5 staff system in which both Army and Cavalry branches use today, splitting administrative/adjutant general, security and intelligence, training and operations, logistics and quartermaster general, and public relations into five separate departments with associated assistants.

Afterwards I was promoted to the first Deputy Executive Officer of the Army, where I was in charge of daily operations, help establish the corps system, and oversee all daily operations of all staff departments. I was eventually promoted to become the Executive Officer of the Army where I also served as a member in JCS. In November 2009, I officially retired to explore the eWorld a bit.


Marines
I served a short stint in the United States Marine Corps as I explored the branch and experienced their joint strike efforts.


Hong Kong Special Duties Unit
As I left the United States to assist China in building their government-backed military branch, I created and commanded a private militia to prove that military-based communes may be self-sufficient.


China
After several successful weeks of operation, I was recruited by the Chinese Department of SinoDefense Office of Strategic Operations and became Adjutant General.

Hong Kong Special Duties Unit became the 10th Battalion in the Chinese National Defense Army, where I continued to command troops and tanks while I continued my political career.


During this time I served three terms as Congressman in Shaanxi, Hubei, and Liaoning. In addition, for assisting in the defensive aide from the international community, the President of China awarded me the Homeland Liberation War Memorial Medal (their version of the Medal of Honor).


To introduce a greater sense of governmental transparency and outreach with constituents, I began China's first ever tradition of holding presidential debates for all candidates, which brought voter questions across all candidates on IRC. I also heavily promoted the use of IRC for the Chinese government so that they may improve communications with its allies with the international community than stuck on their QQ system.


I also served as a party president for the HKGOLDEN party, known for its democratic values from the Hong Kong community, whose players are accustomed to democratic values from 99 years of British rule. I helped push forward their plan to expand their party operations and gave them a dedicated forum for their daily use.


I also served as the Chinese Ambassador to the EDEN Alliance, United States of America, and Spain for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. I helped establish some of the communications Chinese government officials still utilize on a daily basis.


Sol
While in China, I also participated in alliance policy making and defense. I served two terms as the Advisory Representative for Sol representing China. In addition, I headed the Jackal Battalion of SolDiers, the alliance defensive force uniting against PHOENIX attacks. As Major General, I oversaw intelligence, logistics and operations for the alliance force.


Australia
After my participation in Chinese military, economic and political affairs, I moved to Australia, where I joined the elite Australian deployment and tanking force, the Australian DropBears. I would eventually become the Deputy Marshal (equivalent to the XO or 2nd in Command) of the Australian DropBears. During this time I focused heavily on intelligence and deployment cooperation with the Australian Department of Defence (yes, they spell "Defense" with a c).


I participated in several allied ATO attempts directly against the botfarm Indonesians were creating. I also helped keep their Top 5 parties PHOENIX-free by standing in on several occasions as the party president for both the Greens Party and the Australian Military Party.


Return to the United States
In April 2010, I returned to the United States after numerous months in the Pacific. I was greeted with great kindness when I returned and was recruited to several military branches.


USTC
Before I accepted any of the offers to rejoin the military, I went through boot camp all over again. I wanted to make sure that I continue my military career with the most up-to-date information and I quickly graduated boot camp from the 124th Platoon.


Army Group East
Although I was offered positions in both Army Group East and Army Group West, I decided to go with my roots in 4th Division and joined Army Group East. I went through their Reception Battalion as well to get myself up to speed with the latest in Army military education and graduated from RECBN with Honors. I was recruited by the AGE Rangers and became a Ranger after an eye-opening training regimen by the Ranger Indoctrination Program (RIP).


Cavalry
When the Army Group East was contemplating with rebranding, I helped write the infrastructure the branch was founded on, including its branch proposal to JCS. I eventually became heavily focused on the public relations and recruitment aspects of the upgraded eUS Rangers within the Cavalry and became the PR/Recruitment Officer for the Rangers. As recruitment levels stabilized, I transferred to serve my current position as Ranger Team 2's Executive Officer.


I have been given the opportunity to serve the United States on a new aspect I have not been able to serve before. I have attempted to run for congress twice back in 2009 which have resulted in failure due to primary elections or just stupidity the first time thinking a newbie could beat Ananias in Florida (lolz I got second though! 😃).

I am glad to be supported by the American Military Party and the United States Workers Party. I hope to receive additional endorsements in the upcoming days.

While I do not reside in Louisiana in real life, I did pass by Louisiana on I-10 on my 3000 mile road trip from Atlantic Ocean to Pacific Ocean.


Louisiana is a great state full of great people. I stopped by for some awesome food there and the bridges on I-10 and I-12 was really relaxing to drive on!



Yup, LSU!!! 😃

Who loves rain????!??? I got a bunch of that when I was driving through Louisiana too!


More bridges...


And who doesn't love industrial areas right next to interstates?


And to make you hungry for fried chicken and shrimp:





Why I'm Running
I hope to improve relations between the military and congress. Although a strict division between military personnel and politicos have been the norm for... well since forever, we could always get along better to create a better understanding of both sides by both parties. I hope Congress and JCS would work together to properly defend this country and its allies while keeping a fiscally responsible spending budget.

I would like to increase the communications between Congress and JCS, and increasing involvement from the White House towards the strategic planning for our international partners.

I also would like to begin the trend to stimulate the manufacturing industry, which has not seen a proper rebound since the birth of V2. I hope that increased wages and balanced market prices will attract foreign investments in our domestic market while American interests remain secure.

I hope I will receive your vote on the 25th of August! Thank you for your time in reading this wall of text!

If you dislike the norm, maybe your sandwich is just missing some JLT.
