Hail, President Emeritus!
We who are about to vote, salute you! El Presidente, Hector, Lifer! Watch out for the Senators, though!

OMG!!!! *staggers under the weight of the post* T....L....D....R.... *faints* You lost me at 'perhaps', but I'm ready to grant you whatever you want if you can put it in smaller words. ... except I'm not really in a position to do that, since apparently this is not a dictatorship. Ugh. Also Midge now has my vote, but only because I'm fickle like that. I know I just said Ink could have whatever he wanted, but that was an entire paragraph ago. Times change, much like the presidentship, and much like daylight's saving time. Last edited by Tessar : 03-15-2010 at 10:55 AM. |

Hey! Can mods be the President too? That sounds an awful lot like... a multiple dictatorship! Or some kind of aristocracy, where we un-modded people have no power!

Yes, among other brutal authoritarian powers that they have. I can't say much, because they're holding my stash of caramel apples hostage.

Can we? I didn't think Administrators or Moderators could run.
Either way, that doesn't quite seem fair... HAH. Sorry, that's super hard to say with a straight face. Aaaaah. |

Hector, do you have any lobbyists left over? You should sell them for a bunch of caramel apples. You know they'd do the same for you if they had the chance and it seemed worth it to them.
Right? I think...

I gave up lobbyholism a long time ago . It was hard, but there are rehab centers to help you get rid of it .
Tomorrow evening I will have drawn up and posted some basic questions for any candidates to answer. Study up! Good night everyone

I myself have not run or voted in any election where I manned the ballot box. Not only was it a perfect excuse not to have to meddle in politics but if that doesn't assure you the Entmoot elections are ethically handled, I don't know what will. Quote:
Technically, there's no rule against it. But if the people of the Entmoot want to elect a mod or admin as president by democratic process, who are we to stop them, really? Doesn't president Tessar have a nice ring to it?

Hahahaha! Yes, it DOES!
ETA, So maybe it'll be President Tessar and Vice-President Valandil. That sounds good..... Although, i'll stick to my original idea that it should be the other way around. May the best man win!

I think Val and Tess should BOTH run, with EACH OTHER as their VP candidates. That will make everything deliciously complicated.

No questions today. Not feeling well. Class dismissed.

Bloody brawls in the Teacup between Val-Tess supporters and Tess-Val supporters. How can you not love it? It'll be green and purple Drazi.

Brawls? Hmmm... I doubt it. But maybe we'll see.
I'm flattered. I hadn't been thinking about it, but now I'll have to. (Have to think about it, that is - not have to run!)
