Term V Nomination Thread.

[History Guy]

OK, thanks Togas and Aggie.

Togas-- As for President or Vice President, I think Ninot said he would like that post, and I know that at the moment I might prefer something a bit smaller.

BTW, I received your PM, and would have responded if your box wasn't full. In short, I thank you for the offer, and if you will allow it, I would like to accept the post. It's rather out of the way, and I think it might do well for the basic training, as my first real post. I thank you again, and if the post is open, I'd like to accept it.

[UnOrthOdOx]

zeit, to the best of my knowledge, is not a Hawk. HG, does that mean you are not running for City Planner, and instead joining the FAM staff?

[OPD]

Alot will happen in the next 5 days. I think these could be the most interesting set of elections since the second term.

[History Guy]

Well, in this case, I suppose that I shall run for City Planner, and if I lose the election I'll accept Togas' very kind offer of Deputy Intelligence Chief. In the meanwhile, I shall write those letters for Unorthodox.

[GhengisFarbâ„¢]

Since Ninot's running I don't have to worry about running for Pres.

I'll be running for CP

I'm announcing my candidacy for City Planner.

I plan to bring a lot of experiance with micromanaging Cities to help get the best Production, Trade & Growth that can be gotten from them. I hope to help ruffshod our cities to the point that we will come out of the Dark Ages and be the dominate power by the end of the Middle Ages. I plan to balance City needs with Needs of the SMC. I plan on working closely with the MoE & MoPW on expediting building and Infrastructure.

I hope to have Apolytonia's support with all of this and in electing me to the post.

I would like to also know if I can be in this position and still act as Deputy FM for Trade (not an elected position, so it shouldn't conflict with the CoL).

Awsome E_T! You've done great work within the Foreign Ministry department, and I'm happy to see you running for a position.

I'm not sure about the Minister/Deputy thing. I talked to some members of the court about it on a very informal basis, and it seemed to be a confusing issue. I personally have no problems with the idea (of Minister and also a Deputy, I'm not so sure about Minister and Minister), but I'm not sure anyone really knows if you can do that or not . The only way to find out may be to A) pass a new constitution that addresses it, or B) do it, and wait to see if someone sues. It's a very grey area for now.

Awwww. No real election .

Has anyone committed to running for VP yet? I thought there were one or two potentials, but did anyone actually commit?

[History Guy]

ET...are you a Hawk or a DIA? Zeit seems to be already running for DIA, and I'm running for Hawk.

[Meshelic]

AGGIE why don't you run for Prez?

Unless you are of course content with the most coveted position in the government...

[adaMada]

History Guy, does it really matter? We can have two Hawks/DIAs running against each other -- I don't think the party affiliations play a huge role in the majority of the voting anyway.

Just thought I'd point out that there's no reason two people of the same party can't run against each other...

I think we're basically to the point where I and a few other people are all trying to second-guess what the other people feeling at the position are going to do before jumping at it

So there are a few of us heavily considering it, but I think all of us are waiting to see what the others are going to do first

I might be the first to jump, but a lot of my decision is being prefaced on what GhengisFarb does. Personally, I'd like to see GhengisFarb run for president, both because I think he'd do a decent job and because it would make my own options more open.

As for now, I'm still slated as running for IE unless I finally to jump at VP or something changes in the overall political landscape (as suggested above, for instance).

So there ya go

Yep. There I go .

Thanks for the answer. I'll keep it in mind.

The other unknown is what WhiteBandit is going to do now that he's back... I don't think I'm the only person waiting to see where he falls before deciding what to do for sure

[adaMada]

Oh yea, just realized he hadn't spoken up...

Aro! Man, you gotta run for something . Consider this some friendly peer pressure.

Aro for... err... something . Aro for something!
