Lechasseur's Convention Speech:
Good evening, and thank you for giving me the opportunity to speak to you all.
Atlasia is doing very well thanks to our president Fhtagn's competence as Head of State and Commander-in-Chief, and we should be aiming to continue going in the right direction by electing NCYankee to the Presidency and for Federalists in other offices.
After having thought about it for a while, and having accumulated experience in the Southern House of Delegates, I decided to run for the Atlasian House of Representatives in order to help Atlasia continue to prosper, while at the same time bringing things to the table that I believe had been missing in Nyman up to this point.
The first thing I bring to the table is a pragmatic economic and fiscal policy. My only limtus test is keeping the National Treasury in the black, or at least reduce the debt. Anything to make this happen is on the table as far as I'm concerned. And as long as it's fiscally responsible, and properly funded, I'm willing to work with the opposition on programs to help normal Atlasians.
Second of all, I will defend moral values and tradition in order to help society stay healthy and happy, while at the same time recognizing that some questions are not black and white and have to be debated and carefully studied. And while I support traditional values, I also support tolerance and I want people of different backgrounds to be happy and comfortable.
And last of all, on foreign policy, I will support force when it is necessary but avoid it when possible. We need to make sure that we continue sticking to a Realpolitik and we don't get stuck in ideological extremes, whether hawkish or dovish.
Thank you for your time.
