[SFP] Pick the Pickle
Dillon Richards
Dariuswolf recently announced he'll no longer be able to run for Party President of the Socialist Freedom Party due to a health issue. I think I speak not just for every SFP member, but for the eUSA as a whole when I say I can't wait to see you back on your feet, Darius.
With Darius having to take a (hopefully temporary) step back, the door is opened for others to step forward. I am announcing my run for Party President of the Socialist Freedom Party for the February-March 2018 term.
Salty was the first person I publicly supported for any office in eRepublik and I'm proud to have him at my side. You may remember him as our recent nominee for Country President where he scared the pants off of the establishment in his near-victory.
Secretary General - King James88
[Image Coming as soon as I get home tonight]
James was part of the Party a while back as the famous James Schubert. He's a knowledgeable and thoughtful guy that I'm looking forward to getting to know better. He did an excellent job as Secretary General under Leon Gutierrez, and I'm happy to have him on my team as well.
Councillor - Niemand
Niemand has been a voice of calmness in various seas of crazy for as long as I've been here. He's a hard worker, currently running the Q1 Housing Program for the Party. Niemand is one of the most trustworthy members of the Party and I have total faith in his ability to oversee the Treasury.
Spokesperson - Maxwell Hanz
Maxwell Hanz was Party President when I joined the SFP and is one of the finest writers we have. Max is incredibly easy to work with and always gets the job done. He's become a good friend of mine and I'm thrilled to have him (and his skills) on the team.
My platform will focus around maintaining the momentum built up over the past months. With recent surges of membership, our regularly strong media presence, and a remarkably talented membership base, we're poised to do some terrific things in the coming months.
eRepublik can be pretty confusing for newcomers. How much sense does it make that racking up levels as fast as you can is actually a terrible way to advance your account? Basically the opposite of Pokemon. This is why I think the Mentorship Program is so important. I'd like to aggressively advertise these mentorships to newer members. We have a wealth of generous and knowledgeable members, let's be sure we make good use of it!
The idea is, that SFP members who want to can join the Company Collective and contribute a set amount of USD per week to the Collective. As the pot builds up, the contributing members will take turns upgrading their companies from the collected funds. This idea is going to take some fleshing out. For instance, "How much should be contributed per week?" "How do we decide who gets the upgrade?" "What happens if someone misses a week?" But that's the benefit of having great thinkers in the Party - we don't have to work anything out alone.
What excites me the most is the possibility of a Country Presidential win. If Salty's run in the last race proved anything it's that we can do this. We're a viable alternative to the status quo and people see that. We should continue to field CP candidates and provide the eAmerican public with a meaningful choice. This. Is. Possible. And it'll be a top priority for me in the coming term.
This concludes my platform. I hope there's something in there that you're interested in. If not, throw some suggestions my way. I'm looking forward to a good month filled with excitement.
When it comes voting time, do the right thing: pick the pickle.

This looks good. You and I will have to sit down and discuss the future of the Mentorship Program. Great to be apart of your team though Dillon! Goodluck!
Yep, I'm looking forward to seeing what we can do to turbo-charge it 😉
There is no mentorship program, you idiot.
Everyone loves Niemand ! 🙂
Sadly it is not true, but luckily a lot do. 😉
Happy Valentine! 🤗

The Pickle is a wonderfully qualified candidate. I support him in his pursuit.
I would very much like to see our female membership play a more prominent role. They are nothing short of amazing and brilliant. An under utilized resource in this male dominated game.
Luckily I’ll be identifying as a female for this term.
Go Salty! Switch it up and be everything you can be! 😃
