He didn't want to serve this term, but was sort of pressured into it. I respect his willingness to take the duties of the job in support for our Civ.

We need new people to step up and lead us to new sucesses.

No, like cavebear said, I didn't want to be a Minister this trun so I'm taking a 2 mouth vaciton from poilcts.

[H Tower]

depending on what the people say about me being a quasi mod and being able to hold office, i'll throw my hat in the ring for foriegn affairs minister.

of course, the people have a choice now, is it acceptable for me to both hold office and be a mod? i'd like to be able to serve the people in both positions, but i can certainly understand if the people don't want me to hold both at the same time

Is Bruce the Stupid interested in a position? I nominate him for any position he might be interested. He has had some very informative and useful posts, particularly concerning oft overlooked logistical problems. Also, he has not previously had a position with the Democracy game.

What do you think Bruce?

I don't see any problem with you being an elected official.

Anyone who thinks that someone with the phrase "TheStupid" in his nickname is suitable for running for office is even madder than I . I am honoured by your comments none the less. I would actually like to get involved, but not yet, as;

1) I'm not sure I'm experienced enough at anything but war,
2) I don't feel I've yet got a grip on the format of this game,
3) During December I may well be away and unavailable for 2 lengthy spells.

I might well be interested in January/February though (assuming we haven't won by then!!!).

[cavebear]

Great reasons. Proof that you are qualified!

[cavebear]

I am running for President. The Citizens need screenshots and other information in order to make good decisions. They haven't been getting them. I will always provide that.

I'd like to see some new and some experienced people stand up for election to the Cabinet offices. Anyone new who is afraid they won't know what to do, I'll help you through it.

We need some focus on the years ahead. I got us through Republic (always tricky); I'll get us advanced through Democracy to the production stages. Caravans are important to us, but they are not the *only* thing we need now.

They have got screen shots as usual please no need for you to post lies here cavebear.

what the cities build is not up to the president but the people vote in polls produced by ministers and then the ministers prepare reports for the president.

Some ministers do some try to just cause problems.

My resignation from C2DG politics stands. I will not be contesting any office this term.
