The USWP:

Hadrian briefly describe what the USWP stands for.

I could quote some prepared statement on USWP’s driving political ideology, but in all honestly with very few exceptions, homogeneous political positions amongst parties is pretty rare. There are a few who maintain a somewhat cohesive set of core values, such as SFP, but most larger parties like USWP are a pretty broad mix. What I would say is that USWP strives to run active, capable and well rounded candidates with the primary goal of working to make the eUS a stronger nation as a whole.



What makes the USWP great?

Our members. A party is only as strong as its core membership. One of the primary goals of any party should be to recruit the best and brightest players possible. USWP works hard to insure that new players who want to grow and learn, have the opportunity to do so, and thereby insuring the future success of the party. It doesn’t hurt being the largest political party when it comes to recruiting talent either.



You are currently the party president of the largest party in the country. How do you intend to help the country through your position?

First, by attempting to run quality candidates for Congressional offices. Secondly, by continuing to work with newer citizens to encourage activity and participation for increased player retention. Those two things I think are crucial for a stronger and more successful eUSA.



What are your plans for the USWP over the next month?

My plans over the next month are to continue to build our membership, increase member participation and activity and work to ensure that our representatives in Congress are valuable contributors. It sounds like a cliche, but honestly that’s what my primary responsibilities as PP are and if I can accomplish that, I’d consider it a successful month.



Congress has been lacking a bit in recent months how do you intend to fix that problem?

All I can do is work with our PAC (Political Action Committee) to ensure we run the best candidates we can find and encourage active participation with our internal congressional whip. In addition to running USWP candidates, we are running some 6th party candidates as well.

If you had to be critical of the USWP what is the major weakness of the party? How do you intend to fix that problem?

Some believe that USWP is more concerned with quantity over quality and in the past, there may have been times that was true. That being said, I think we have a high number of really smart, talented people in the party My goal is to continue to “trim the fat” so to speak and really focus on helping the cream rise to the top. I’d love to run only the best of the best candidates, but as we all know, change can take time. I will do my best however, to continue the party moving in that direction.
