- NoneSuch's Not-So Massive Campaign Article -

A lot has happened since my last article, such as the realization that a single article just isn't going to be enough. As massive and dynamic as it was, it would have just been irresponsible of me to leave my campaign riding on that one article. This article will be much shorter so at least there's that. This time I want to just acknowledge some recent events involving the election and bring forward a pretty good idea I had.

Jamarcus

It's disappointing for me to see such an honest candidate be forced to withdraw from the race like Jamarcus did. After losing the AAP nomination he felt that he really had no other choice. Other than his articles and his forum posts I didn't know this fellow too well, but from what I did manage to see he had a good amount of ethics and conviction behind his words. He was fighting for an even more transparent government which no person can deny is a necessity in every government.

After resigning his candidacy he threw his support at the Kyle/Jewitt ticket which I bear no hard feelings towards. Even though I did not gain his endorsement I would still like to carry on some of his ideals. He and his supporters wanted a transparent government and that's what they'll get. I'll go over this in a bit, but don't think of this as me trying to "steal" his ideas. It would be wrong of me not to be influenced by this man.

Town Hall Debate

I was contacted earlier today by a player named "Not Done Never". He informed me that before Jamarcus withdrew he wanted to have a public debate between the candidates. I thought this was a great idea and told Not Done Never that I would be happy to be a part of this. Since then I have found out that Jamarcus withdrew, Scrabman said "he can't do it", and Kyle had accepted the offer. So as of right now Kyle and I will be having a public debate over the issues in the very near future. I'll keep you informed as I get new information pertaining to the whereabouts and time of the debate.

Presidential Press Conferences

While I was on IRC last night I kept receiving PM's from people wishing me luck in the election and giving me their support. People were also saying that a good amount of my appeal was from just being such an approachable person. I took this to heart and went one step further. Depending on how well this idea is taken I want to hold either weekly or even bi-weekly Public Press Conferences.

These Press Conferences will be sessions in which myself and members of my potential Cabinet will be available for public questioning. So instead of the system we have right now in which The President decides what to tell the public, the public can decide for him. I find this a much more efficient form of communication since it's going to be a little more informal but much more in depth. I'm still undecided on whether or not I'll let the public just write up countless articles detailing these Q&A sessions or if it will all be professionally published in one article. Either way it's going to be good. 🙂

Edit: These will be held on IRC in a dedicated channel.

=====================================

So that's it for now. If you have any questions PLEASE send me a PM. I'll respond as soon as I can, promise.
