I did intend on letting users pick party leaders first, yes, but I want to allow some time for people to register. I don't think it violates the spirit of the game to allow multiple people to join parties and act as campaign surrogates. In fact, campaign coordination is something that I would account for when evaluating overall campaign quality. (And just for the record here, if you think I'm incapable of being impartial, Spiral can tell you all about how David Duke managed to make Bush Sr. ragequit in '92.
