Q-Me asking question
A-Desertfalcon answering

Q: Desertfalcon, you have clearly shown your Military expertise in your newspaper, Global Defense Report. Do you regret not being able to run for president during our time of military need, because you have run for congress 8 times already?

A: Actually there are no such restrictions regarding congress elections and presidential elections. I could run for congress 25 times and still be eligible to run for president.

Q: Do you plan on running for president?

A: I don't have any intention to run any time soon, I ran a few times earlier this year but as of right now its not one of my short term goals.

Q: Emerick was recently impeached due to apparent "legal" issues. Do you think this is real, or do you think that this is a cover story for something else?

A: Whatever it was I respect Emerick and I don't know of anything he could be covering up in game. While his story seems a bit out there we have to remember this is Emerick we are talking about.

Q: Harrison Richardson completely failed when it came to defending America. Do you think he got the unlucky term as President, or do you think he really did suck at being President?

A: Its a little of both, this war was the result of foreign policy failures over the past few months and HR did play a role in that. After Atlantis fell Scrabman and HR (who was then secretary of state) said they would wait before joining a new alliance and would try and remain neutral for the time being. The problem with this was that they did nothing to mend relations with PEACE and close some of the open wars and instead focused on rebuilding a new Atlantis just with a different name. As for during his presidency I think HR did all he could, however that just wasn't enough.

Q: Desertfalcon, do you think Emerick was the military genius he was, or did he get lucky when he started his Campaign to take back America?

A: Emerick and our military leaders were able to turn the tide by forcing Russia to attack us in just one region which allowed us to win there and regain the offensive so they deserve some credit for that. Whether you want to call that luck is up to you.

Q: DesertFalcon, did you at all help in the military campaigns launched by the U.S.?

A: A little, I was an adviser to Emerick so I gave him my opinion and some advice from time to time but I never held any position in the military.

Q: Most of Peace's wars are being conducted by the Russians, Colombians, and French. Do you think that these are all puppet countries of Indonesia and Hungary?

A: Not really, part of an alliance is helping out other countries in your alliance which is just what Colombia is doing. Some may same that Colombia is only doing this because PEACE forced them to when we really don't have any solid proof that that is how it went down. Most likely these countries were just asked to help and they obliged, in fact when you really think about it these countries are getting a pretty sweet deal seeing as they get all these new regions and PEACE tanks to help them out.

Q: DesertFalcon, thank you for accepting this interview. This will help me and the American people. Now, one last question. Do you think that the Peace attack was caused by Harrison Richardson's inexperience, or the fact that former President's have attacked and enraged Peace, such as Uncle Sam's invasion of France which activated the French MPP's?

A: Your very welcome. But I think it is all of the above, I still think HR and the Scrab administration had a lot to do with it since they had a great chance to close up some of these wars and mend relations with PEACE, however they decided to continue with the PEACE is 100% evil philosophy that got us into this mess. The war Benn started with France wasn't that bad since we would of likely won had Atlantis of stayed organized instead of becoming too self serving. Justin's war with Portugal was a huge mistake that came to bite us when Uncle Sam invaded Mexcio (this wouldn't of been a mistake had Uncle Sam of not gotten so greedy). Then the war Scrab started with Russia which was just a flop and helped lead us to where we are now. Having all these people involved makes it somewhat difficult to pin the blame all on one person.
