And you completly ignored the fact that the mods and admins later recanted and made it a dual presidency between the two that tied.

I have a dumb question. Since we have two presidents, does that mean we have two vps?

Yeah. Cause u have PM like we have. I doubt you have a VP then since in theory the ministers you have are all "equal" (with the Head of State being the Monarch), though of course in all practicality the PM is above the rest.
In Norway the King is Head of State, head of armed forces, etc., the PM is head of the gov't, with numerous ministers included (But in reality 'below' him).
In some respects the 'VP' in Norway is the foreign minister as he usually has most practical power after the PM and often fills in responsibilities that are 'head of gov't'-like, but that changes from fora to fora. Basically in a parliamentary system the ministers are delegated all the responsibilities that a VP would have.

Well Acalewia - since you were Nurvingiel's running-mate, you're definitely a VP in my eyes I don't know whether the Sasquatch had a running-mate. During the last elections, it was decided beforehand that the running-mate of whoever won the presidency, would become the VP. So when Hector won, Nurv became VP.

Anyway, I think you should ask the admins to put "Vice President of Entmoot" into your title

Acalewia... that was a SMART question!

I think the Presidents have to get together and form their government. But first... they have to make their SPEECHES!

SPEECH! SPEECH! SPEECH!
