  • Put the Vice Prez to work?

    A poll from your Vice President -

    Our Vice Presidency is the easiest job in the empire. Because this post has no real duties, someone had the brilliant idea of making the VP responsible for posting election polls. The people must decide if some effort should be expended to earn the boundless prestige associated with this post!

    Edit: BTW, you have 72 hrs to vote...


    (MdS wondering if anybody noticed that this idea came up after the election polls were done during his VP term)

    Yes! Put the lazy sod to work!
    78.95%
    15
    No! He has too much to do, such as... uh...
    5.26%
    1
    Banana! Oo oo aa aa ee ee
    15.79%
    3

    The poll is expired.

    The gift of speech is given to many,
    intelligence to few.

    yes, put the lazy bugger to work . but more duties should be tacked on as well. perhaps he could serve as a prod to remind the other ministers that are slow posting their polls? and maybe post extra screen shots when the public clamors for them...

      Well, VP should be more than a consolation prize...

      Heck, if I were VP, I wouldn't mind the increase in duties... Might make me consider running for President at the elections after this one... Then again, there's the scary possibility that I might actually be ELECTED, and with school (taking up 12+ hours/weekday) and all, I might not be able to handle it.

              Isn't the VP's job to unsettle the government and start a coup.

                Sure give the VP something to do - polling and being the President's whip sounds good to me.

                Of course, perhaps some of the Advisors have some ideas as well - things that they think they really shouldn't have to do...

                Within reason, of course. Whoever the VP will be (should we have a thread where those who are interested bring this knowledge to shade's attention or just wait and see who the Prez wants first?), we don't want them to have more work than everyone else - and we don't want it to be the worst position either!

                  --> see my allseeing eye on the left???
                  I have a few ppl in mind...and I know they are interested at this moment so I don't see a problem.
                  I'll send a PM to my choice of VP the 31st...if this person agrees he'll be anounced as my VP.

                    Slavery shall be illegal, shade!

                    If you enforce this, I shall oppose your evil reign!

                    But, if not, then count me in as a vociferous supporter.

                        Well....

                        ah hell. I can't refuse that sad tone of "voice"!

                        << signs "Acceptance of Slavery under Exceptional Circumstances" Declaration >>

                        And any candidate for Prez who is still at work at this hour HAS to get some respect.

                          I will try not to take to much advantage out of it.
