Of course you realize...

That this isn't what free elections are supposed to be.
That was just pathetic:
-Calling Sam a "PTO" when he came out and said that if he won he would attempt to run the party as best as he cold.
-Getting voters to snipe a decent American from holding political office
-Making me actually believe that "Elitism" is happening instead of thinking its Erep. Tea Party Style
Vote if you think SamWystan was a Great American who was demonized unfairly because he dared to run against the "Approved" candidate and deserved every bit to win as the other guy.
Or I guess comment and bash this article like I'm predicting it will be...

Good article.
Sam's got style
One reason why I left the party...............
I like your spirit and your tenacity. There are still some things about the whole situation you seem to not be grasping and things you are holding as truths that are in fact falsities, but it is over and like I said, your spirit is still in the right place even though it maybe a bit jaded by Sam's false claims in his articles.
I'm not sure how they are false claims Claire if he was never given the opportunity to accomplish any of them 😃
This should prove that elitism is alive and well in eUSA. The few think that they should alone hold power and decide who and when others get any. Dont fall for the snobby comments and flat out lies in regards to this situation. I know first hand that the elitist here were terrified and are terrified of the majority raising up against them. Sam is the latest victim of them....we will finish what he started.
END ELITIST IN eAMERICA
@Claire
You seem to completely fail to comprehend that players are tired of you and the other 'elites' screaming PTo every time someone you don't hand pick runs for office. For the last six to seven months every election cycle it is the same BS over and over again. All of you are starting to look and sound like Chicken Little running around screaming 'The sky is falling, the sky is falling...' While at the same time you are letting in a bunch of Turkish 'businessmen' and claim they are no threat...
if its any consolation to you, same thing happens everywhere.
elite b******* always cry whenever they feel threatened. and theyll do anything to stay where they are. anything.
sam was a great newspaper guy : )
@CHS, I won't even stay around if a turkish player gets into congress.
SamWystan, greatest eAmerican of all time.
Let me be honest. I have only been playing this GAME a little over two months. I have seen Admins do a lot of stupid things. I have made a FEW in game friends I trust. I have heard a bunch of rhetoric and seen a bunch of drum beating. I have come to believe that to enjoy playing I must 'cheat' (manipulate game mechanics, what ever you want to call it) to get where I want to be.
1) I think party politics could be fun, but I don't have the time/initiative to get that involved.
2) Politics, in game or RL involves backroom deals and nepotism, so for me Eliteism is a moot point.
3) I personally think Sam went out the best way possible. He got people involved that otherwise wouldn't have.
I'll concentrate on running my new business, write a few articles and two click for now. Enjoy your arguments.
subbed and voted
everyone can see what happened clearly
say what you want but it happened
and it was very very visible
made me all giddy inside
I agree, Sam said he changed his mind and would stay, guess we'll never know though, what I saw was a very hostile attempt to keep the approved candidate in office
What Vince said. I went through this very same thing with citizenslave when I ran for Fed PP. At that time, we kept it honorable on both sides and I went down to an honorable defeat. But this cross-party switching for party offices is just plain wrong. That's why every election needs to be contested - it keeps things honest.
Agreed Hoss!
Well said, Mr. Lawrence. SamWystan will live forever in our hearts!
Also, pickles are delicious.
I'm curious to discover in which world Iasov could possibly be considered elitist.
Death to Wigs.
