Presidential Elections

Day 1,261, 16:59 Published in Ireland Ireland by Sean MacDiarmata


Citizens of Ireland,

As most of you know, I am seeking a second term as president of our great country. Today I would like a few minutes of your time to speak to you about my eRepublik experience and my desire to lead Ireland again, into a second successful month and will talk briefly about my selections for next term cabinet, should you elect me for a second term.

I feel two of my main attributes is my insight when it comes to the Military and the Foreign Affairs parts of the game. I have been working with the Irish Army for over a year since I started in the IDF. I have always been a keen member of the Irish Army scene, when I was still low ranked and relatively inexperienced, I was drafted in as a Supply Staff by caladbolg to help in the IDF. From the start of my career in eRepublik, I have served Ireland with nothing but determination and an iron will to build it into a powerful nation. The knowledge gained working as a supply officer has given me the experience needed to run a successful army additionally while fighting for our allies, I have built up a vast array of contacts abroad. The benefit of both was shown last month.



Another benefit of having great foreign relations was seen through Ireland gaining 4 MPP's at half price including one from Poland which would never normally be available at that price.
I have been serving the EDEN alliance for over 8 months, since my first term as MoD as well as serving in the Allied Forces, I have worked along side such elite commanders as Romper, Donmarci and Atea. Other leaders and soldiers I have worked with are Polish CP Avie, long term MoD of Poland StrozeR, US tank Colin Lantrip, Greek tank exohoritis, Military Commander of EDEN and a good Bro Diuras. Some other great people I have good contacts with our Mobster1930 the Bosnian President, leading EDEN members Alpho and Iaswn .

Lets not forget all the soldiers in TCO or the ICA, these soldiers and leaders Ireland has always been able to rely on



As I touched upon in my last article, we need to continue to build upon the groundwork laid during my last term. The PTO threat is still very real, after being shut out this last election, you can believe they will be using more extreme tactics this upcoming election period. Additionally, the UK threat is also an issue we cannot take lightly, it is almost guaranteed the UK will attack Ireland soon and we need to ensure a well respected, globally, and militarily adept person is in office. When the UK finally does push the button, Ireland will be more capable then ever to face any threat the UK can try throw at us.

Currently I am one of the most experienced military minds in Ireland, I have done it all...literally done it all. I have worked in not only the IDF and IA but also the ICA, The Crimson Order, CAF and The EDEN Elite Mobile Corps. All that experience has also paid dividends as well.

I have learned to play eRep under some of the most experienced players of the game and I have always been keen to learn and this was shown from when I was a supply officer of the IDF at rank 7 I believe it was.



The Ministers who will help me in the next month, should you allow me the honor of another term, are as follows,

Vice President - Orangejuicemmm
Ministers of Defence - Reactionist & James Ferrin
Chief of Staff - Bockson
Ministers of Foreign Affairs - IrishBhoy196
Minister of Finance - Sweet Drinker
Ministers of Community - S1v3r K1d & D-Glennon
Minister of State - TBA
Minister of New Citizens - Peter Lyons, Deputy - Patrick O'Leary
Ministers of Propaganda - Joe Hitman & Pete Sake

Again this month, as I did last month, I look to bring in a mix of experience and new players, with this combination we can have new players learning from experienced players so they gain valuable experience to hold minister positions in the future as well as bring fresh insight to Ireland political scene.

Regards,
Marcus Suridius
