Dear eBelgiens
Think it is time to present my candidature for the presidentials of eBe.
I know that some do not trust me yet, in the past more than one player faked his ideas to gain confidence of the opposition.
but I think I showed already that it is not the case this time.
I will not wast time to sum up my plans again, you can find them here together with those of the other candidates:
http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/interview-with-cp-candidates-all-answers-2378862/1/20
For my government, I ask my opponents, if I should win, to join me, also I want to ask those who share my love for our country to candidate for a place.Really do it this time, show that we are right.
Oh before I forget, if I am CP, all laws who discriminate people with other idea's will be put on hold, out of respect for those who worked on our laws and constitution I will not destroy them, but they will not count for me, time will tell if we need them or not.

I am with you, but they won't listen to neither of us.
sooner or later they will have to listen to us
good luck
Could you give an example a law that discriminate anyone due to its ideas?
NLSP's fake Supreme Court Trial and the decision to remove citizen's rights to the certain individuals, it is kind of discriminating and it's not in the spirit of common understanding and mutual cooperation.
You give me too much credit 🙂
....a reasonable suspicion that the person has the intention to PTO eBe, harm eBe or provides assistance to someone with these intentions......
as long as I remember it has to be proven that someone is guilty, suspicion does not mean that you are guilty.
That's completely right and this is the exact reason why the SC decision does not force the ban. It was both congress and CP decision to pass that law. If you want to cancel it as CP you can.
Only one day before the election and you write your first and only article that you are running for CP and it's barely 10 lines of text. Yes I read the interview too but even so a little more effort would be appreciated. It's kinda a pet peeve, I hate people who run for CP (and expect to win) and barely make an effort. I know people will make this about me not liking you and what you stand for but that's not it. I just would have liked to made you make more of an effort.I hope that's not exemplary of your government if you win.
No need to write a book, last weeks showed what I stand for, it is not the number of words that counts, but the intentions to do something.
I wasn't asking for a book, I would like a CP candidate to have a idea where he is going and have plans for his term. You have plans about the wipe and the "discrimination" but your manifest lacks idea's in the more important facets like foreign affairs and defense. I do think that although those matters you address are important especially now seeing the situation but I do think external stands also matters maybe even more.
Like I said, it is kinda a pet peeve, candidates only posting one article to me it shows a lack of effort and dedication for me personally I think it's lazy. Nothing personal against you, I have had the same problem with other candidates in other elections even when I was in other countries.
Indeed foreign affairs and defence are important, but what good to be best friend with an other country if my own neighbour is trying to strangle me?first we must become united again, then other country's will see us as a good investment.
Same for defence, All that matters is getting our country back, there again, before talking about defence we must be on one line, and this is not the case right now, so most important is peace between our citizens before we can talk about the rest.
like my mother always sai😛 "what is good to be well dressed if you did not take a bath". Let's clean first before showing off.
Although I understand your reasoning and I do think that unity is important I do not think you can just put foreign affairs and defense on halt just because a country isn't unified. Unified or not the world does not stand still and standing still is the same as going backwards. We can't permit ourselves to do nothing while we try and solve our internal problems.
As for getting everybody on one line, that will not happen anyway you can focus on that put all your energy in this but it is wasted energy. You will always have (groups of) people who think otherwise and who are on opposite sides and won't budge on their opinion.
I think that just focussing on our internal problems and not giving foreign affairs and defense any or minimal attention is just as detrimental and dangerous to our country as the fighting we are doing. Foreign Affairs and Defense should always be one of the priorities of any president and his cabinet.
I was prepared to give an evil answer about recent defence and foreign affairs strategy, but want to stay civilized.
Oh and the day I say to myself it is impossible I probably hang myself ( of course if I can convince myself of the possibility that the rope will hold)
You can pretend you can get everybody to agree but realistically that will never happen. Everybody has their own opinion and must extremism on both sides are set in their opinions.
And you didn't answer the part of foreign affairs and you only focussing on internal affairs.
Good luck!
I do not agree with some of your ideas, but I know you as a wise and respectful player that is a huge asset to eBe. (yeah, that ruined every credibility you had with certain players 😁 )
Maybe it is Vice Versa, as they ruined their credibility in his eyes.
I not yet old enough to be called wise 😉 and my credibility can surely be discussed, I lost some on one side gained maybe on the other, the future will proof even not elected, that I want just the best for our country, that means that there always will be someone who does not agree, I am sure that even I will not be satisfied with things I do, but if majority wants it I'll do it.
Be careful with doing things just because the majority wants it. Ever hard about 'argumentum ad populum' ?
You need to do the right thing, not the popular option 😉
If a solution is right but not popular, it will be my task to convince them why it is right, that is the hard part, but always better than make a decision and afterwords say that it is the best for everyone.
yes, it is your task to try to convince them. It is wrong to just take all decisions without communication and so. But even if you don't succeed in convincing them, you would be a bad leader if you knowingly took the bad option, cause there is a majority for that option.
An ideal situation is when the majority supports the right path, but if that isn't the case, a good leader follows nevertheless the right path, while a bad leader just follow the majority.
The question is not if you should or shouldn't convince people, it is if you have the guts to go through with the best option despite getting resistance from a majority.
The strongest and most altruistic leader, even if his office is dependent on the support of the masses, must look first to the dictates of his heart, never allowing his decisions to be swayed by popular opinion. It is only through courage and strength of character that a true and memorable legacy is ever attained.
Good luck on the elections. Voted
Because complaining is an international sport in eRepublik...
Only in eRep? You should go more on the internet 😛
Lets not get into that.... it's already crazy enough with eRep alone.
Or you could also try RL politics, it works as fine😁
v13, good luck
Voted ... i hope you wil win.
good luck !
