I Am American and I am Not Afraid

Day 1,999, 13:26 Published in USA USA by GloveisLove


I was really disappointed with some of the responses to my questions, and I was not planning to write about it until I felt like it, so here we go.

I had a dream.


A lot of you might be asking why I prefered Tenshibo over the other candidates. I didn't elaborate on my reasoning and I'm sure that molested a lot of you, so I will elaborate.

He had the most swag.

But he didn't have enough swag, he just had the most, that's why I liked him.

Realistically, there was very little difference between any of the candidates, which is upsetting. I will highlight some of the more important questions and response:

"Question 2: What are your thought on Romania, is it okay to go to war with them directly, even after all we've been through?"

They all said yes, which is the response I was looking forward to, so kudos to them for that.

"Question 3: Do you think we should rekindle with Canada, if not, why?"

They all said they don't want to go out of their way to do so but would open to the idea...a very neutral answer and politically safe.

"Question 4: Do you accept Dio as your one and only God Emperor?"

Artela & Luis said yes, Tenshibo said he is a pig.

"Question 8: Will you promise me a direct war, I grow rather tired of training wars and neutrality?"

None of them promised me a direct war. They all said something along the lines of, WELL MAYBE IF SOMEONE ATTACKS US I"ll GO TO WAR.

I mean that's cute and all. But this nation has lacked a direct, serious war, for months upon months. And I don't understand, why. We don't have full bonuses, so losing bonuses is not a good excuse.



I remember distinctively that the leaders said they wanted to lose resources to discourage AFA immigration, but yet we haven't had a serious war. So which is it, is it that you don't want to risk losing a war and territories (which is very easy to get back for us, since we have so many original territories) or is that you simply don't have a real direction?

There is absolutely no reason we should be idle, we have the resources for a serious war if we want it, but no one elected has wanted so, seriously disappointing.

And a direct war offers a lot of benefits, it will be the first real test for COT/USA allegiance.

To put things in perspective, I think the last largest American Empire was actually under my rule, sadly, when we had colonies: all of Indonesia annexed, and Mexico, plus our original territories when Terra was basically non-existent.

So let's see what COT can do for us hmm? Surely these "leaders" can do better than the president that got us wiped, right? I mean I hate to put you down, but I'm going through the the world map history and I see lots of nothingness. And by that I mean that we as a nation have literally done nothing for months.

That is plain pathetic.

And you, the citizens of the eUSA, should be asking your leaders these important questions, you should be demanding action of your government, and most importantly, you should be demanding activity. I introduced direct democracy as an experiment, I know a lot of you liked it and for the most part it was a success. I wish to see more inclusiveness from the Executive at the very least, instead of the circle-jerk thing we have going on.

The only noteable event I can recall from these last several months is the failed invasion of Taiwan (kudos to Fingerguns for giving us something to do). That seemed like a cool idea, but really, it was a poor target for 2 reasons:

1) A stronger target would of been more fun (no offense to Taiwan, they still managed to thwart the invasion, which should speak wonders about our coordination)
2) They were friendly with us

So yeah, I'm glad Fingerguns had balls to do something, anything is better than nothing. Enough on that.


“Question 9: Will you let Pfeiffer in your cabinet, if not, why?”

All of them said, that Pfeiffer wont be in their cabinet, but that they won't relieve him of CIA Duty.

Well in other words, they are saying he can keep a position of power that they can ultimately remove him of. If they think he is doing a good job, I would like to know what exactly the CIA director is planning to do, what he has done in relationship to the positon of CIA director, or is that OPSEC? If he isn't doing anything, enlist someone who will. Simple as that, no one in government is so important/useful that they are not dispensable.

And I mean that sincerely.


“Question 12: Who was your most favorite eUSA president, why?”

They literally, ALL SAID CERB. And thats fine, I think Cerb is a fgt but hes a somewhat competent fght. But what disturbs me is that none of them said Cerb for good reasons. They all said they liked him because he was active and wrote frequently.

That is true for a lot of past potuses so that reasoning doesn’t explain their hard-on for him.

I don't know about you guys, but what I look for in a potus is a potus who is willing to try new things. Cerb didn't do any of that, if you want a real influential potus, I would had mentioned St Krems, Gaius Julius, Emerick, Harrison Richardson, Josh Frost, and even Oblige. They stirred things up actually, changed alliances, created Empires, introduced new American reforms, and I am surprised none of them were mentioned, which leads me to believe that perhaps Cerb was mentioned for political affiliation, but this is just my personal assumption.

“Question 13: What have you done within the last 30 days of value?”

Tenshibo had the only real answer here so he got lots of mad props from me. Tenshibo was instrumental in the formation of COT, and even thought I am not a big fan of COT, he gets major bonus points for having an active role in that process.

“Question 24: Where did TERRA go wrong? How can we avoid this in COT?”

I was a big active supporter of Terra, personally. And we did have some fun campaigns while in that alliance, and did form strong bonds with the nations in it. In the end, we suffered from infighting and a lack of dominance in the morning, which we had to rely on Eden from, I think the latter was the main reason for Terra's downfall. All of the candidates pointed to, "WELL COT HAS A CHARTER" SO WE WILL NEVER HAVE ANY ISSUES CAUSE EVERYONE WILL FOLLOW THE CHARTER.

Well I hate to play devil's advocate, but Terra had a charter too.

And no one will listen to a charter if it doesn't interest them or if there is no real consequences. I sincerely hope COT works for you guys, but I see too many problems in it already, but I hope you can prove me wrong.



US-AIM

I saw some noise about US-AIM and all I really have to say is, good for them. And I sincerely hope the movement does become political, maybe then we will have real elections again.

That said, I hope a real leader emerges, I don’t care if it is an old player or a new fgt, so long as you give this once great American Empire, a Return to Greatness. For too long we have sat idle, inactive, and without a vision.

We need a president with yoloswag.
