Day 1,518, 13:49 Published in Sweden USA by Aliquam

Hello everybody!
My name is Aliquam, and this is my new series of articles.
It´s called "We are the Presidents" and to explain it simply it´s a series of
articles where I'm going to interview some of eRepubliks country presidents
and also some former country presidents.



I´m really dedicated to this project, and I think it could be so awesome
to know what our country presidents does/did, how they are and also some fun facts
about them.
This is also my first project on English, so I hope you will enjoy it!

This is a extra edition of the "We are the Presidents" series of articles. I will do a interview with the former Swedish CP, Jim Parsons.



There is Jim Parsons. I have just landed at a serbian airport. Jim Parsons meets up with med, and it takes about 50 minutes to reach Jims house. Jim has moving boxes all over the place, but he is just ignoring them, and we take a cup of coffee.

Jim Parsons, you have been CP for eSweden, for two months. Can you tell me little about yourself and your time as CP for eSweden?
I'll leave the part about me aside, fo those who are interested they can read about me if they navigate to w3st3rb3rgs newspaper - he interviewed me during his christmas specials, I think I was behind chamber three of four, not sure!

My time as a President was the best time I've had on eRepublik. It was kinda tough the first days but I soon got a hang of it and everything went smoothly on from there. If I was asked to describe a typical day I would probably sum it up like this: I was either pissing someone off or joke around with one of my beloved friends.


Jim, you was set aside as CP by the Swedish Congress, what happend? What went wrong? Why do you think you was set aside?
Some felt it was time for a change and they did everything they could to make that a reality - and they actually succeeded and for that they shall be saluted. The main reason to why I was set aside was because of two clicks on the attack button - to be honest it's kinda amusing to see how two clicks could change the political map in Sweden. It was fun while it lasted and my only disappointment was that I wasn't allowed to sit my term through, but shit happens - nothing to do about it now.

How it´s like to have a countrys confidence and then be set aside?
Like I said, I didn't feel anything in particular, but I was disappointed that I couldn't ride this thing through, but the congress gathered the precise amount of votes to set me aside and Raticon was given the opportunity to lead Sweden - something he did great, too bad he didn't run for presidency again - but I'm sure he'll return someday to reclaim his throne. It was fun working alongside with him and for the first time in more than a month I really felt free - free from the decision-making parts, the only thing i had to do was to give my opinion and leave the rest to others.

Jim spills coffee on his white shirt. - *¤£&@%!

If you could turn back time, what should you do different than you did?o, I wouldn't. And I stand by that - yeah, it sucks that Sweden was erased and that swedish core regions are in possession of the finns and the russians but those who say that they prefer peace and love infront of the excitement of a real war, a war on several fronts to be more precise, then he/she is lying.
Two clicks from my side changed Sweden forever, and just the though of it makes me smile. I've gotten a lot of criticism for what I did and that is understandable - everyone has a right to think and feel freely and I respect that. But from my point of view I regret nothing and all the drama that came along made the news section more alive --> something I really enjoyed.


If you haft to choose one favourite colour, whick one should you choose? Black and red (a combination of those two, they work really great together) - if I only had to chose one I would choose red (a darker tone)

It´s friday evening, what do you eat?
Pizza. We have some kind of tradition to always order pizza on fridays because no one wants to cook, luckily we have a nearby restaurant that has the best pizzas I've ever tasted - so no complaining from my side and on top of that there's no dishes afterwards.

Is it anything more you want to say to my readers?
To those of you who read the entire thing: Thank you for your time!

Thanks Jim Parsons for the interview!
Thanks for reading my articles!
