Running for Congress

Day 1,004, 20:23 Published in USA USA by Relorian

Greetings American Citizens and Soldiers alike,

I am running for Congress in Oklahoma

I have quite a bit of Congressional experience in

game. I've had countless presses of the Vote button. I've been an 11 time Congressman and 1 time Country President (in eSingapore). I know what I am doing when it comes to Congressional matters.

I've served in the National Guard. I did my basic training there when I started the game. I was in the first units converted into the Mobile Infantry. I was honorably discharged when I went to eSingapore and served as Minister of Defense for over a year (We sent troops to the Greek/Israel Liberation, to WW 3 and to the battle of Lionking to help our former home and its allies. You see alot of eSingaporeans are expatriots from the eUSA)

I returned to the United States, enlisted in the United States Training Crops (I wanted to be re-trained so I knew the current procedure). I graduated with Honors and was offered an T7 job (Keeping Documents up to date, re-writing the manual for the V2 crossover and ensuring that all tests matched the new manual).

Thats pretty mich all you need to know about my past. Now on to my platform.


My stance if elected will be VERY pro-Military. Why you ask? There are those out there who want to strip away funding from the entire military and donate it to private political militas.

I feel this is a HORRID idea aimed to make political armies state funded. Political Armies are in their own way a bad idea. An entire military unit that does NOT answer to the DoD but instead to whom ever the Party President is (And it could be someone hostile to America if a PTO happened). Add to this already messy situation government funding. Then we have milita's being given state money to do what the political heads want to do.
That idea does NOT work well for America. We give money to units loyal to their political bosses before America, so if we ask them to fight but their political boss says "no" those troops become unavailabe or fight on their own dime instead of the government.

So if any bill was put forth giving these private militias funding more than they get now, I would vote NO any day of the week. There is room for Militias (Self-Funded) in our eWorld but NOT if that takes away from the actual eUS military who do what they do for love of the game and our country and do a damn fine job of it too.

I am also again rising taxes unless a good reason is presented. I feel that the government must be open and honest with its people when it acts, so if a tax increase is proposed, I will ask WHY we need a tax increase and if it is absolutely nessicary before voting yes on it. If the reasons are poor or "just for the lulz" I will vote NO. If the reasons have to do with being at war I will vote Yes but only until the war is over and then push to change taxes back to their previous levels.

Infact, I promise you all right now that if an "lulzposals" are put up, I will vote NO on them. This game was ment to be taken at least a little bit seriously and proposing things that are obviously lulzposals only for the 1 exp you get is unacceptable unless its like the last 26 hours in a term. Until that point there is important work to be done and You the people sent us to do it.

I love our eNation, I want to serve it in Congress as well as in the Military. I've got the political experience and the military record to support my running and potential victory.

I would ask you the voters to give me a chance to do some good for this country and to safeguard its Military from the hands of those who would strip it of its funding and power and hand that off to Party Presidents and their handselected "Commanders". Give me a chance to look at why we're changing taxes so we can make sure that we get the best of both worlds, collecting taxes but giving you your fair share so that you dont suffer and can prosper.


Anyway thats my platform.

I will now give you the TL😃R part.

1. I will vote Yes to help the Military
2. I will vote NO to stripping the Military to fund more Militas
3. I will question the need for tax increase before voting.
4. I will vote NO on obvious "lulzposals" as I feel they hurt the game.
5. I will not allow our Great Nation to hurt itself or its forigen relations if it is in my power.



Thank you for reading, Thank you for considering voting for me.
I hope you do Chose me as your pick for Oklahoma
