AndrewCT/Duke for President Campaign HQ

[AndrewTX]

Ladies and Gents,

 Good Evening to you all. I would like to thank you all for reading this message. I have spent quite a bit of time in Atlasia, as you all know. This is my second time serving as an at-large Senator, I spent a term as a Northeast Senator, and wayyy too many terms as Governor. I have been here to watch Atlasia grow, shrink, go from its great points, to its worst points. I have watched many officials come and go. Some have thrived, others not so much.  Although my acitivity hasnt been the greatest the past short while, I was in the transition of new operations at work, and I am back to normal.

 Regardless of that, this isnt why I come here to speak to you tonight. I would like to talk to you about the future of Atlasia. I believe we have come to a crossroads at the time, and we need new leadership. A new vision, and a new future.

 With that, I would like to announce my candidacy for President.  I will be announcing my running mate come Sunday, and our platform on Monday.

 So please, feel free to ask any questions or post any comments you may have. Again, the full ticket will be announced sometime Sunday morning, and we will be releasing our platform on Monday.

 Thank you everyone, and Dave bless!

Hell, just by being the Populares candidate you're basically assured 30% of the vote, give or take. I wonder who the running mate could be, though? (You thief. )

I might have chosen myself to be VP. You have Senator AndrewCT leading the ticket, and former Secretary of Awesome AndrewCT as VP.

[AndrewTX]

Thank you all for your endorsements! For thos who do not support me, that is fine with me. This is what the game is all about. And to clear something up real quick, I did not join the POP just to get elected to the senate, or for a presidential race. I joined because I had become close with some of the members, and I'm proud of my choice. Those who have been here for a while know that I don't vote for the party, I vote for the issue or person. I will continue to be the same person I have been this entire time.

 Thank you all

[AndrewTX]

Alright everyone, cut the sh**t out. If you want to bitch about me being a the POP front man or something, go create your thread. If I hear one more thing about this from people who have already wasted a good 6 pages of my thread, I'm just going to lock the thread, and not post a single thing about my campaign. I have not let the NLC, the DA, nor the POP to tell me who, and how I'll be voting, and I'm sure as hell not going to start now. Its done, get over it, or get out. I would like to thank the rest of you for the kind words, especially from people like Ben, who can see that I am still the same guy.

I'm going to announce my choice for VP, but before I do, let me let you all in on something. This ticket may have been discussed with party leaders, but this wasnt a party ticket. I have expressed the desire to run on the same ticket with this person, even while I was in the NLC. I think this person has done an excellent job in Atlasia. He has worked hard as a Senator, as well as his time as Governor.

 So without further delay, I'd like to announce Senator Duke as my running mate!  Reminder, tomorrow we will both be announcing our platform.

[AndrewTX]

First, I'd like to thank Senator BK for his post, it was greatly appreciated.

 Also, although it has all slown down, I would like to again please ask to keep all fighting or arguing out of this thread. I understand some people are very passionate, but it is difficult to be able to look through who supports, who doesnt, and what questions people might have. I really dont want to have to delete this, and start it all over again.

 Thank you all!

[AndrewTX]

Thank you NiK, that is awesome. I'll try and add that in as soon as possible!

 Also, thank you to my friend HW. Your kind words and support are greatly apprecited!

No, Andrew showed no interest in any reform efforts and now he was just looking for an issue to criticize the administration to make political points on that.

Which only show us his possible "quality" as President. No interest in anything but sign the bill, veto the bill, "I'm out of here for some time".

That couldnt be further from the truth. Although I wasnt a part of this one, I have participated in the past. If I am elected, and the people still want it to continue, than it will, and I will be participating in it. I would greatly appreciate it if you didnt falsify my charcacter, and deicide any of my future actions for the sake of your own campaign.

Threats, Andrew?

How is that a threat? He's merely suggesting that the aggressive and mean-spirited campaign you are running, filled with terrible assumptions, will only hurt you in the end.

'

It is my view that Andrew have no slightest vision for his potential presidency and is not offering anything valuable beside an ignorant criticism.

We have a clear choice between a candidate, who deals with Atlasia mechanism every day and can sacrifice his time for a very ungrateful and comsuming job in game, and a candidate, who has yet to show what he can do. Andrew did nothing yet.

Yes, I'm waiting for Andrew to outline his vision for a potential Presidency.

First of all, dont even start saying anything about my activity, because if you are, you certainly arent going to like the answer.  And second, I will be announcing more about our plan for Atlasia later this week with Duke.

[AndrewTX]

we would certainly continue to see its progression through until it's finished.

Can the Presidential Candidate confirm this?

At its current rate of progress, and if the President and others feel that an additional 10 days is all that is needed to complete the ConCon so that it can be sent to voters, I would most likely vote in favor of giving this small extension, with the hopes that there wont be any calls for additional time.

[AndrewTX]

Sorry everyone for not being around much the past few days. I had a death in the family, and the past few days were difficult getting all the affairs together, than the service and everything else. I'll be back in action this afternoon though.

Very sorry to hear it. Take care.

Thank you. Everything is starting to come back together now, and I'll return to usual or higher activity. It was a really stressfull week, and I figured I wouldnt mention anything until everything was done and finished with, except for a few peopel who had already known.

Either way, I hope to post a few things about what I plan to do tonight or tomorrow morning.

Not that it's going to make you feel better, but I have some s**t in RL now as well.

RL is always more important than what is going on here. I'm sure I'll be talking to you later on AIM.

[AndrewTX]

  I'd like to thank you all again for the kind words, as well as my running mate for his statement. The election is upon us, and although this has been a difficult past two weeks, I feel like the message from our campaign, as well as the others have all been presented to the voters in a very compassionate way.

   I couldnt be happier with how this election has turned out so far. It has been a long time since Atlasia has had a truely competitve race for the Presidency, and right now I really think this is what we have been needing. Regardless of the results, I want to thank you all for coming out and making your voices and opinions made.

   I think this campaign has been run clean, as we have not gone negative or on the attack, which is something that I focused on. The message is what is important, not how it is delieverd.  Duke and I have set up a vision for Atlasia, and if elected we promise that we will make sure that vision is brought, and build Atlasia to a greater nation.

   So friends, when you go to the voting booth, I want you all to remember that Duke and I have been passionate of Atlasia since the start, and we will continue to do the same if elected. So thank you all again, and I wish everyone the best of luck in all of their respective races!!

Also,  vote ANDREW TO THE SECOND POWER, A SECOND TIME!

[AndrewTX]

Good Afternoon Atlasia,

 At this time, I would like to thank every single one of you who came out and voted for me in this election. When the idea of this campaign came to mind, I knew it would be an uphill battle against either the President or Vice President, but when Fritz came onto the scene, I knew it was still going to be just as difficult.

 But I am proud of how well the campaign did. One of the most important things I wanted to do was to keep this campaign clean and positive. This ticket wasnt negative, we didnt talk down of others, and we kept in on track, and this is something I am happy for. I would like to take this time to congratulate our President-elect, and my friend, the Vice President-elect on their victories, and wish them the best of luck!

 At this time, what my political future holds is unknown. Most likely, I will continue to serve out the remainder of my term, and than retire for a while. I would like to thank everyone again who came out in support of this ticket. I couldnt have been happier to see how many people from several different parties came out in support of me, putting the person above the party. Thank you all again, it really meant a lot.

 Dave Bless!

[AndrewTX]

You guys ran a good campaign, and I'm not ashamed to say I gave you a second preference .

As I'm not ashamed to say I gave you a first preference in the Senat race

 Either way, I'd like to thank all few of you who posted something nice in this thread recently, it was very kind of you. Now its tiem to get back to work, and finish out the rest of this term, before entering permanant, full time, forever, probably 2 month retirement. FOR GOOD THIS TIEM1
