Campaign Thread: President

[DAVOUT]

Your program regarding the Civ 3 game will easily convince the citizens, but you have not developped your ideas regarding the democracy aspect of the game. Are you interested in it only at election time ?

Be presumptuous, it's a prerequisite for the office.

I have touched on my views of the democracy aspect of the game but have not developed them much like I have not gone into detail on my ideas regarding the actual game.

If you really wanted a 10 screen post I could have given you one but personally I dislike really long posts so I am expecting to answer specific questions.

Davout if you could be more specific with a question regarding the democracy aspect I would be happy to answer any.

If you want me to say things like I will reply to any and all queries from the public on any subject if elected then ok but I think thigs like that go without saying.

You can imagine The Court issuing a judgement for empeachment :

The President has demonstrated a total lack of presomptuousness despite all his efforts to hide an atrocious modesty.

This will never happens...

OPD mutters something about people nominating themselves on the last day of nominations then winning on the last day of elections

Feel free to ask any questions

You mean questions deserving short answers ?


I dont consider that answering questions from the citizens is worth mentionning in an electoral program ; even unpresomptuous presidents are polite ; we pretend to build a civilization after all. I was rather refering to the principles which you intend to apply in the continued improvement of the Apolitonian society.

No I mean questions that aren't vauge and misleading



Nor do I mean questions that I have already answered earlier in the thread.

Is there no citizen other than OPD willing to run for president? I for one grow tired of voting for the almighty banana. I'm surprised there is nothing in the Jungle Gazette about this apparent lack of available leadership.

[Shiber]

I would have run for president but I'll be too busy during schooldays for the rest 2 or 3 months so I'll make a lousy pres...

[GhengisFarbâ„¢]

Personally, I think OPD will make a fine President.




EDIT "if elected" (crud, had to go back and add that again..........)

Who, me?

OPD will make a great prez!!!!!!!!!!!

And I'm not even running for this position..... so no need to worry about little old me......

[jdd2007]

what are your views on political parties. are you affiliated?

[MagnusMarcus]

Political parties have yet to become a necessary evil as is apparent by the lack of citizens campaigning to be president. Political parties are only needed to secure votes when races are contested. As such I see no need to affiliate myself with any party. I am content to vote for the almighty yet again as OPD will surely win uncontested.

Not affiliated and never really like the idea.

Earlier in the game I was very much against the DIA and thier builder ways but in our current situation I'm starting to favour thier policies more. I'm a warmongerer at heart but think that other aspects of the game have been understated for far too long.

As for political parties yeah sure there will a party if I win.
