Well if SGH won't be allowed to run, I will run in her place. No way will someone from Jersey be President. As a native New Yorker, I just cannot let that happen

In this place will I abide, and my heirs, unto the ending of the world.' 'Then Tuor arrayed himself in the hauberk, and set the helm upon his head, and he girt himself with the sword; black were sheath and belt with clasps of silver. Thus armed he went forth from Turgon's hall, and stood upon the high terraces of Taras in the red light of the sun. None were there to see him, as he gazed westward, gleaming in silver and gold, and he knew not that in that hour he appeared as one of the Mighty of the West, and fit to be father of the kings of the Kings of Men beyond the Sea, as it was indeed his doom to be; but in the taking of those arms a change came upon Tuor son of Huor, and his heart grew great within him. And as he stepped down from the doors the swans did him reverence, and plucking each a great feather from their wings they proffered them to him, laying their long necks upon the stone before his feet; and he took the seven feathers and set them in the crest of his helm, and straightway the swans arose and flew north in the sunset, and Tuor saw them no more.' -Of Tuor and his Coming to Gondolin "Oh.

If we went with the electoral college plan, we'd first have to create some states. Maybe an electoral committee would just collect and count the votes.
In any case, I think that a person should be required to have at least 75 posts to be considered a legal voter. That would be a precaution against new accounts and guests created solely for fixing this election. (aka thwarting the likely evil plans of Falagar )

Shouldn't you guys be wearing the I support Hector avs then?
However, if anyone is the president of Entmoot, it is Tolkien.

As you can see - based on everyone thinking that it's a no brainer between either SGH or me, it has nothing to do with possibly losing. Oh - and Dunedain - I saw your little comment about Naw Yawk and New Jersey. Lizra - I thought it would be nice to have a new banner and stuff for Entmoot - say maybe the New Jersey flag. Also - All my supporters, if Jonathan accepts the nomination - I call on you to throw your full support behind him.

Why can't Tolkien run? And being deceased is not a good enough reason, if, as Fat Middle says, the presidency is symbolic more than anything.

For one thing he'll need to officially announce himself as candidate, and make that decision himself. I'd support him if he'd run.

Tolkien accountant? Are you saying there's some way to get Tolkien in the race?

Tolkien for President would be ideal, but the humour would end when we never saw his special title under his username.
