DMV4POTUS: Charity Begins at Home, Justice Begins Next Door
DMV3
In my last article I brought you my Foreign Policy agenda, and my ideas for changes to the way we wage wars. This article will focus on my Domestic Agenda, and how we will rebuild our community.
"There is nothing wrong with America that the faith, love of freedom, intelligence and energy of her citizens cannot cure."
-Dwight D. Eisenhower
Domestic Agenda
Communications:
The Department of Communications will be replacing Media in the Cabinet. The Department will include Media and will be adding direct communications as a sub department. Direct communications will utilize a shout team that will put important information literally everywhere, and a Mass Mailing team that will be sending out PMs to player whenever the need arises (i.e. ATO, or directing critical damage during an invasion or other important battles.) the mass mailing team will be used sparingly as to not inconvenience citizens except in times of national need. The Mass Mailing team will also PM new citizens on behalf of the Department of Education and Community Development to ensure new players have the tools to succeed and get active.
Immigration:
I know the President is not technically responsible for immigration, but they can do a lot to influence it. That is why my first act in office will be to push immigration reform through Congress. If the past has taught us nothing it is that immigration can be a double edged sword, we're damned if we do and we're damned if we don't. My proposal to Congress would be a program that focuses entirely on assimilation and naturalization as criteria for admittance into the eUS. I will push for specific guidelines for admittance: the ability to understand and communicate in English, they must come from either an English speaking country, or a country that has been wiped for an extended period of time. This ensures that they will have greater incentive to join our community, first by being able to actually understand what is going, communicate effectively with others, and in the case of those coming from a nation that is wiped usually a desire to be around other active people (most wiped nations have a harder time maintaining a community without an actual nation to sustain them).
Education/Interior:
The Department of Education under a McVicker Administration will be launching a new program that supplies interested Military Units with curriculum and teaching materials to help new players adjust to an ever changing game. Military Units that participate in this program will be given additional funds for supplying new players, and will have their military unit suggested to to new players as a recommended military unit. The first Military Unit I plan to include in this program will be Airforce, as it is the primary Division 1 and 2 unit of the USAF. I will also be diverting funding into Airforce to make sure our Division 1 and 2 fighter receive quality weapons and food to help them rank up at a faster rate.
As most of you know I launched the Damage, Mentorship and Vitality Program earlier this month to help supply Division one and two player with Q7 weapons, food, mentorship, and help upgrading their town centers. The program has become very popular and will continue as a private welfare program regardless of the results of the next election. If elected I will divert Interior activities away from welfare and towards activities such as holding contests, hosting games, and generally keeping the citizens entertained and informed.
Internships:
Under my administration I will be allowing players without experience in government a chance to help out in the Executive and see the inner working of the Executive Branch. Interested parties should fill out the Internship Application.
I had originally said I was announcing staff next, but I decided that it is more important that you know what I stand for before you know who will be working with me. As always if you have questions or comments feel free to contact me.

Good Luck and give the competition a run for their money!

So far I agree with every point and proposal that you have made Dennis. This is a solid campaign based on policy. Exactly what we need.

This is pointless.
The odds of you winning are about as high as Bia adding me to FB
God what is that awful buzzing noise...
Anywho, looking good so far Dennis!
Media, speedia. Yawn.
IES, Slade Cash/Cromstar has immigration handled.
DoE, Dr Luis Sentieiro has education handled.
Lets let some more people play govt. that don't know jack.
Why are you doing this? Quit stealing other peoples ideas and acting like they are your own. You are such a pretender. Gees!
RGR,
I would say his chances of winning are much greater than your chance of ever being liked by Bia or anyone else for that matter....
^ x2
Good Luck Dennis.
Internship, you mean challenging the political status quo by allowing those of us with motivation to attempt to do something? I'm in.
GL DMV.
Just a note on the Engiish-language thiing... the RL USA has the largest national Spanish-speaking community of any country outside of Mexico (between those who have Spanish as their first language plus ~ 6 million Spanish-language student, roughly 51 million people). People have been speaking Spanish in parts of what is now the USA since before they were speaking English in other parts.
I've always found it curious how this fact of life doens't much get reflected in the eWorld.
Why are you running?
You are not going to win

Good luck to you!
One thing about immigration.
We just passed a massive reform at the end of last term to entirely correct the flaws we we're facing with immigration. This domain is voted by congress and handled by an independant institution that is the IES.
Slade Cash got this one. Don't worry about it, we're going in the right direction.
Hmm. Looking good. ~
Well, you've got my vote and my support in everything.
Very interesting approach

You forgot about the Flight Training branch, which does newbie training for the USAF. They already have a full set of new player curriculum, and experienced trainers.
And there is a problem with putting a lot of energy into ranking up D1 and D2 people -- we need them and don't have enough as it is, because it's a lot easier to win rounds if you have strength in all divisions.
haha CG is still so butthurt about DMV
@Avruch the idea is to get them to rank up quickly so that as they level they hit harder than they would had they not had the weapons. This leads to greater damagd throughout divisions over time.
no dice, i trust RS people as much as i trust IS, pile of dung

I'm looking for financial support to fight. I have no companies (I only produce my own food) My country has no war, my MU is full of friends (I'm not a member for convenience).
Check my profile (+60 str. everyday), if you like it we can trade 1 Q7 weap. per every 10ff. I'm not looking for CS.

Franco P, you should join an MU that gives supplies in exchange for orders.
I'll accept all charity !! I can use as much R6 or R7 weapons anyone can spare !! maybe some food... No gold though. dont give me gold ......
Voted,
I fully agree with your stance on immigration, keep those dirty forigs out!
"keep those dirty forigs out!" - that's a pretty broad reach for a game that's run from Romania. Let's not confuse keeping PTOers out with people from diverse backgrounds and countries IRL. Just saying, the internet is no place for xenophobia.
I have no problem with foreigners, I just think we should focus on those that want to be involved in the community instead of those who come here just for bonuses or those who come here to take over.
fit I think he was being sarcastic, given that he is Hungarian, but your point is a good one nonetheless
I like how you want to funnel people into the USAF... Guess thats something thats changed in the past month of what seems like brown nosing from my view. Guess I'll have to wait and see how many of the same ol' faces you'll be puttin in the same ol' places in your cabinet before i even contemplate voting for you. I will say this, I am so far extremely disappointed.
@ Relorian the goal is to get people involved in communities. I honestly hop TC applies for the program as well, I will always love TC and the great memories I have from my time there. The goal is to merely get people into active MUs instead of the Civ MU which is not very active.
I disagree strongly with the language requirement - it is beneath America imo - but gl regardless
I was disappointed to hear you say on eNPR that you are without any Party affiliation.
Not exactly the best way to win an endorsement.
Hope you get some endorsements
Gnilraps, I have bounced around over the last month and ended up staying in We the People. In all honesty though it hasn't become home because we will need considerable help for the next few months keeping Ajay and his gang from taking it back. We have a lot of work to do before We the People becomes more than an ATO effort.
^ My people consist of the vast majority of the membership.
So go away...
