Great-grand-aunt-Galadriel... Haha! I didn't know you were that closely related to her, Varna!

Varnefinde,
Der iz plesin me! Hector fur Prezidant fur Life fur de Entmut! Iz dat so dificult?

Und, I sertanly dink dat Midg und her huny shud hav de long, long hunymun which wud mak her not abl to be Prezidant. She ud be to oderwis okupid. Se? Und if she iz onli going to be gon fur a few dayz and NOT BE oderwis okupid, I dink dat she wud be a bad Presidant bekaz she wud be distraktd bi her hunymun aktivitis.

Se, only Hektor - whu vas elekted fur 4 jahrs! und wrongfuly deprivd of his ofis by de undurhandd mods und adminz afturvards und is reli a nis gi whu doz not dezerv dat sort of tretment! - shud be Prezidant. Und to mak up fur de horibl manur in which he haz ben kast azid, ve must mak him Prezidant fur Life fur de Entmut!

It iz al kler az mud.

But I am veri dizapointed dat no kandidat can writ in de UroEnglish. Not evn Hektor haz dun zo. I ma hav to stop being hiz kampan manager. Und he haz no nominationz fur de Nobel Priz, eider, un he haz ben Prezidant fur mor dan 9 daz. Dis doz not luk gud fur de long term. Und de sea is levelz ar nerly normal agan, zo hiz ekologikal plank iz kerplunkd.

Du ma zee de se is levels her:http://wattsupwiththat.com/2010/03/3...ay/#more-17970

ZO, HEKTOR FUR PREZIDANT FUR LIF FUR DE ENTMUT!!! No wun elz vil do!!!!

*sigh* I think all my hard hospitality work to impress voters is going to waste in a heated argument about communists and France and a weird accent.

But I'm ... okay with that. As a presidential candidate, I will take all hiccups in stride and encounter them with grace, as I would continue doing with Varna when we were elected.

#1. What does Entmoot need that you can deliver?
More hot chocolate and cake in the Cafe Can never have enough of either one
#2. Did Peter Jackson use the cartoon Return of the King as a model for his film?
You know, I actually haven't seen cartoon Return of the King so I really can't compare
#3. Once in office, what will you do in regards to Fangorn/Entmoot's contentious relations with Mirkwood? Who will you send to Mirkwood as ambassador?
Depends on the state of our relations with Mirkwood. And as for the ambassador I am not decided at the moment.
#4. What will you do to try and get rid of the 90-second rule?
I can't promise I'll seceed at what my predcessors have failed atbut bashing seems to be doing a good job at the moment
#5. What will you do about the current mess of the Swiss Bank of Entmoot? How will you keep it from falling apart without bankrupting the government and the voters?
Take a careful look at they way they are running their business.Very carefully
#6. What about MootCare?
I think we may need to make it better for the people.
#7. Why is there a pony tied in the back alley of the Admins & Mods Administration Building? To whome does it belong? Why should I care?
A pony? How am I supposed to know that? I don't hang out in the A&MA building. I spend more time in the Cafe with the people.
#8. Why is the chocolate supply in Fangorn always decreasing and never increasing, despite constant influx of chocolate import?
There's a lot of mouths to feed. Some may be inhailing more chocolate then others.
#9. Short essay question: Who is your favorite Tolkien character? Explain why. Explain how this character has inspired your decision to run for president, and why this character's ideals are right for everyone.
It's really hard to pick a favorite Tolkien character. He has quite a few great characters. Over the years I've gone through all of them from Legolas to Eoywn. Although I think I relate to Eoywn more then the others. I'm running for president because I though maybe I can serve the people I love to be around. No character inspired me to run.
#10. Last but not least: What will you do to make Tolkien, his works, and Entmoot better-known and deservedly loved by the world?
Make at least on Tolkien work required reading in the class room. And add Entmoot as a study aide to Tolkein class rooms.

Reasons for voting for us!

As usual, Acally beats out the competition by sheer honesty and sheer unpretentiousness. Are you guys seriously considering voting for Midge/Varnafinde? They're way too calculating. We need SPONTANAEITY!

Acally/Hector= relaxed atmosphere of drinking a beverage with fellow citizens in the Teacup

Midge/Varna=bossying/bullying, making people get to work on the dot, fussing over every nook and cranny that hasn't been swept

Acally/Hector=low taxes on your creek money. Why? Because we're not greedy, and we're not going to expand the government. We're going to clean it!

Midge/Varna=HUGE taxations. People will be fighting over the quarter that someone left in the soda machine change return slot.

Acalewia I'm ok with. Too bad Coffeehouse isn't running also. He's the only sensible person, from what I've seen of his postings.

Just because I bought my first calculator in 1977, it isn't fair to take it out on Midge. I'll give it away if that helps. She's going to be a great President.

-Is Inked, the self-appointed campaign manager for Hectorberlioz, really a Serbo-Laotian-Kiwi terrorist spy with a German accent?

-Is Jonathan telling the whole story behind his imprisonment? Was he really imprisoned for no reason? Evidence suggests otherwise!
Lots of stuff to answer!

I have a source in the mod/admin forum. This whole election is a fraud to start with. You are all wasting your time.

Might I remind the admins/mods that the ballot box should be opened now? An announcement of some sort is necessary and wanted, I should think.

Is there anything more spontaneous than rolling a dice to find out the answer to a problem we know nothing about?

Quote:
Acally/Hector= relaxed atmosphere of drinking a beverage with fellow citizens in the Teacup

Midge/Varna=bossying/bullying, making people get to work on the dot, fussing over every nook and cranny that hasn't been swept
I'll have you know that I enjoy sweeping, and if there's a corner of any building that needs sweeping, I'll be glad to do it until our buildings are spic-and-span for all Mooters to enjoy. I'm not sure where you got bossy and bullying, but otherwise, we sound pretty darn efficient, which leaves more time for play, as we all know.

I don't even understand taxes. And if we're raising anything, it'll be the tax that Mirkwoodians pay when they buy our products. I know my people and I stand by them!

As for loyalty, I'm here at Entmoot 2.5 hours before my first wedding shower. I'm taking time out of my rather busy schedule today to answer wrongful accusations against Varna and I.

I knew it! By the way, I was glad to see his post in the Global Warming Debate thread was accent-free.
