Join the new world

Good day,

I am hoping to remain the Idaho congressman for this coming month. Please let me introduce myself, what I have done and why I feel that voting for me is the right choice.


Biography

I was born on day 497 and started the game with completely unrealistic expectations of what the game would be like. I wrote a number of articles, only one of which I stand by today and generally acted like a typical noob. Luckily not long after I joined I was contacted by Voltare about joining the Federalist Party. Right away I could see that the Feds had a lot to offer if I was willing to put the time in and keep a level head. Through the Feds I got involved on the eUS forums (eusforum.com, join it!!!) and IRC. Currently I am in the Federalist Party Leadership, The Director of Public Defense for the eUS and in the army (5/3 hell yeah).

You may have heard I'm a fan of Game Mechanics.

This is true. I think ignorance of game mechanics is something that should instantly disqualify someone from running for congress and yet every month a outrageously large number of the people who are elected to congress are not aware of how Defense Systems effect the wall size of their state or how initiative works. This is inexcusable. How is our government supposed to function if the experienced half of congress is busy teaching the inexperienced half of congress how to play the game? Congress is an important branch of government and should not be used as a day care centre.

The issues facing our country right now are many. After coming back from nearly being destroyed by PEACE it is easy to see that how we played this game before the war is not an acceptable way to carry on. We have learnt and we have grown and now we have to decide what type of country we will become. Make no mistake our country is changing right now, and it will be up to us to decided what type of country we become. I promise that if elected I will strive to carry on the spirit of non-partisanship we had during the war, and see that we become a better country for it.

The problem is that congress is not trusted by the rest of the eUS government. I won't go into whether I think this is right or wrong, but I know that our country can only get better if we manage to restore the people's and the government's faith in congress, and this is something I pledge myself too. I feel my record speaks for itself on this.

In Summary

Qualifications:

* Federalist Director of Awesome (Fed Leadership)
* Federalist Congressional Caucus Chairman
* Undefeated term as Director of Public Defense (\o/)
* Former Member of the State Department
* Member of the Army]
* Currently an eUS mentor
* I have excellent relations with most other parties and look forward to continuing to use those relations, as well as the personal relationships I have developed with people in all parties to make congress more efficient and useful to the rest of the government.

Platform

* Support our military fully in their fight. They are the most effective fighters in our country and so they should receive as much support as we can give them.
* Work on and improve the relationship between parties. Parties regularly disagree but we are all committed to seeing eAmerica succeed.
* Improve Congressional transparency and accountability. You should know what's going on and you should know who is letting you down through stupidity, ignorance or inactivity.
* Improve communication between all arms of our government and ensure that congress is always ready to respond to a situation as it's happening, not two or three days later.
* I am a supporter of The Federalist Party Training Division Proposal that has received support from the vast majority of parties.
