Unfit to Rule
Hello eCanadians, in just a few days we all will be determining the next president of this great and now free nation. The serious candidates for this month have been, for the most part, of the highest caliber, but today I am here to tell you of one candidate who has disgraced himself and who I feel is not worthy of your vote. This is my opinion and mine alone but I hope that others will agree with me once they have read this article.
Yesterday, the Canadian Progressive Front's primary ended, with Lelouch VL Britannia gaining the endorsement of the party. This means that each of the top five parties will likely be nominating their own candidate this month, with Clan Wolf yet to announce their candidate. This means on the ballot you will likely be seeing Lelouch Britannia from the CPF, the Clan Wolf candidate, I-BleedBlue-93 from the MDP, Punisher 1389 from the IPC, and latecomer DMV3 from the CRP. All, I feel, are good choices for eCanada going forward. All except one.
Today, Lelouch received this message from fellow candidate I-Bleed-Blue-93. Below is just an excerpt.
"Hey Lelouch,
We have a problem.
The race was between you, Punisher, and I. Which is cool beans (y) (Let the best man win, yada yada.)
Mathematically it could have really gone any way between the three of us, now however (with DMV "entering" the race) the numbers are all messed up, with DMV taking voters from every side.
Therefore I have a proposition for you.
Join me on my campaign, so that we can guarantee that a Canadian wins these elections.
If you accept then I would insist that you accept a role in my Cabinet as one of my 2 vCPs.
This is entirely up for debate and I insist you ask questions if you have any.
Please respond ASAP, as Presidential Endorsements have to be in by the end of the day and any changes need to be done.
I eagerly await your response.
Regards,
I-Bleed-Blue-93"

I think the message stands for itself, a shameful disgrace to this CP race which up until this point had gone pretty well on all sides. Even taking the message at face value reveals more of IBBs lack of integrity. Even if we give IBB credit and take the message at face value, we still have a problem. If he truly were that concerned with wanting a “true” eCanadian to win the election, surely it would make far more sense if IBB dropped out and endorsed Lelouch, who belongs to a party with over 40 more members than his own party instead of the other way around? And this coupled with several other petty messages in the comments: here, here, and here
All of it makes it clear to me that IBB doesn’t care about any of you or about doing a good job in office, all he cares about is winning this election for himself and his party. That is why I implore you to not vote for this candidate on September 5 election day.
I am not writing here today to smear one candidate so you will vote for my favored candidate, I am here to inform you. Lelouch, Corrigan Brown(assuming), Punisher, and DMV3 are all good candidates and all of them are deserving of your vote, and would make good presidents, but IBleedBlue on the other hand is not the type of president we need. Say NO to IBleedBlue this election day.
Comments
Well...the race just got a whole lot more interesting. Props to you Auk Rest for presenting this information in a non-partisan way and backing it up with facts.
Kudos to you sir.
Go away for the weekend and guess who moves in? Welcome back.
HAHA! Glad you're here! I know right? you leave for one day and....
Needs more radio. Welcome back.
Still saying no to DMV, he's a nice guy, but he's not a Canuck.
IBB being concerned about what from the outside looking in is easily a PTO(American immigrant running for CP with a UK immigrant putting him on the ballot) isn't very out of the ordinary, nor is candidates suggesting working on one spot instead of two for better odds.
Seems this article's main purpose is to put down a Candidate who isn't from your party because he is a popular contender.
Dirty politics Auk, dirty.
I cannot think of many real Canadian's who has done more these past months to liberate eCanada then DMV. I'm okay with everyone who is running.
My main point was that this seems more like anti IBB propaganda than actual concern about what happened.
ya a eUK immigrant who was CP already and ran/runs a top MU that fights for eCanada.... and the USA immigrant has spent lots of effort and money to try and liberate eCanadian regions... It makes me laugh how IBB would even think that Lelouch would accept to give up the race for a possible '2nd vCP spot' lol, which makes me think this was just something Rylde or another MDP put IBB up to for the lulz
It may seem that way, but the message speaks for itself. DMV has been instrumental in making sure this country gained its independence, I trust him.
Doesn't mean that others aren't allowed to wish for an eCanadian Candidate to win.
That's your opinion, but I don't see the merits in that.
This settles it DMV for CP \o/
Wow! I'm shocked by IBB's actions.
Oh it wasn't anything against you DMV3, don't get me wrong, I still love you 🙂
What shocks me is I offered you my VP all the while you were slipping a blade into my back. Well played sir.

Canada, I'm planning for our future together!
Hardly slipping a blade, and I'm sad because I still never got your application to my Cabinet :'(

Let me fulfill Canada's promise!
Offered by IBB:
"This is entirely up for debate and I insist you ask questions if you have any."
Reasonable counter-offer (as encouraged by what was excerpted from the original offer):
"If [IBB] truly were that concerned with wanting a “true” eCanadian to win the election, surely it would make far more sense if IBB dropped out and endorsed Lelouch, who belongs to a party with over 40 more members than his own party instead of the other way around?"
Of course, it is possible that these talks did take place or have by now, and this is the next step in the political campaign. It would make sense, though less of a cooperative effort.
Oh well, as they say: "May man's best friend win" And you all seem pretty nice.
Hi Wilfie!
Hi,
I'm back!
Looks as though I missed a lot of exciting political developments. Don't you guys take a break over the long weekend!?
The weather was great.
I work randomly, Long weekends come and go for me 😉
Wow Auk, a slur campaign?
Why won't you love me Auk, why?
I didn't realize this was how the CPF conducted their Campaigns.
Also fairly disappointed by Lelouch that he is just letting Auk publish this, but oh well. Just solidifies my thought of him.
"winning this election for himself and his party" You are aware that the "evidence" you presented doesn't support this much at all?
"petty messages"? I'm not going to defend my comments, but I laugh at what you consider "petty" .
To not turn to the disgusting politics that the CPF has apparently adorned, I wish good luck to each and every Candidate running on the 5th.
It's not a slur campaign if it's true. The people have a right to know the distasteful things you've done. You are in my opinion; unfit to rule.
I am here to make sure the government is honest and accountable for their actions.
I don't plan to "rule" anything, I plan to lead eCanada forward into a new era.
Also, I have no problem telling eCanada what goes on in PRIVATE Messages, if they REALLY want to know.
Finally, people have different tastes Auk, what you consider "distasteful" some may consider smart, calculated, even tasteful. 😉
More than just IBB have expressed concern about this, if you're going to slander his name, please be consistent and slander all the rest too Auk.
meh some candidates think outside the box during there campaigs to try and get the CP medal. As far as IBBs attempt and Auk rests counter troll article alls fair in war and politics and both are attempting more creative approaches in a polical election war.
things are a lot more interesting when we are not all buddy buddy thats for true

I wouldn't expect one candidate to simply ask the other to step down in order to save the nation from an evil PTOer. Everyone knows you don't see DMV as a threat, so why ask Lelouch to step aside?
Well if he's as dumb as his name sounds might as well take a shot in the dark i guess.
I didn't ask him to "step down" in fact I said clearly that I wasn't asking that. I asked him to join up, he said no, whatever.
He did it again ! http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/-gh0st4cp-a-campaign-that-is-different--2313944/1/20 (Vote and Share)
Gh0st3rr! This article is about me, get your own!
Say YES to I-Bleed-Blue-93 this election day.
So petty, man.
Petty? You think so 🙁
No.
It may have come out of concern for the country or ambition since it is very difficult to become president.
As scandal goes I expect more from Canadian politics. Threats, swearing, photos of the other persons mother. These are the expectations we have of our politicians. I mean no one even stole any gold! I'm disappointed. The bar has been set gentlemen. Dig deeper for the mudslinging.
Don't tempt me Foxfire :3
yes we had some epic smear campaigns a year ago
Auk Rest is still a dramallama it seems
Besides the annoying use of "insist" I dont see the problem Auk, do you really think this is the first time someone has tried to form a coalition to win a CP race?
I insist that you reconsider the word insist. It can be really insistant
Seriously, dude, buy a thesaurus. I insist.
No but 1) the coalition he's trying to put together makes no sense if he actually cares about what he's saying 2) DMV3 is actually a great guy who has been instrumental in liberating Canada 3) I insist you stop insisting i'm insisting
Did you even read the PM's, LeLouch seems just as concerned about "destabilizing foreigners" as IBB but you chose to single out the MDP candidate
where you counting on no one clicking on your full disclosure link?
DMV is a great guy and eCanada would be lucky to have him but the biggest concern I have is a possible CP and the Speaker sharing and printing in the media PM's which to me is more of a "shameful disgrace" then anything IBB did
we paid for freedom if u recall so he wasn't instrumental in our liberation. we did not achieve it military wise.
Rylde the only reasons a legitimate offer were made is because we made an occupation a pain in the ass for Spain for the last 8 months and Oblige stepped in to help us get the deal done.
