Regional Protection Party

[DownWithTheLeft]

The RPP will be discussing senate details at greater length, but it is expected that RowanBrandon and SPC will be our nominees

Alright, with DS legislature likely to pass, we have to decide who, besides myself, our candidates will be

Since we have a stronghold on the region, we don't we just permit several of our candidates to run for competitive elections?

We certainly could, but I think other parties should be welcomed as well.

Why not leave it as a competitive and open election? Regional legislature elections are the closest things we have to primaries as assemblymen tend to use the experience and recognition gained in the regional bodies to eventually run for higher office.

I think that may be a good idea, but I also don't think having a legislature made up of 3 RPP members (which more than likely would happen) as a good idea

[DownWithTheLeft]

Yes, but with approval voting all we have to do is run 3 candidates, approve of them and no one else, and we win

[DownWithTheLeft]

If I can I will run too.

Did you move from the Mideast?

BUMP

Not really sure why I didn't include the quote in this bump

[DownWithTheLeft]

At this time, the party officially endorses SPC and RowanBrandon, however, the party has not come to a consensus on a 3rd preference, or if the party will pick one at all.

[DownWithTheLeft]

For references, let us just how friendly Afleitch was to the RPP in the last election:

[1] Afleitch
[2] Franzl
[3] Purple State
[4] Bacon King
[5] Lief
[6] SPC
[7] DWTL

7 candidates, our 2 preferenced last behind a lot of liberal candidates.  How conservative of him.  Guys, it seems like every election cycle he comes to us claiming to a "conservative" and wanting to work with our party.  Yet every time its a load of empty promises that he does not keep.  I must admit that many times I have taken him up on his offer and tried to work with him, but every time he works as hard as possible to screw our party, not even for the benefit of his party, for the benefits of those who truly hate our party like Al and Earl.  If we 3rd preference anyone, it has to be Franzl or PurpleState

BUMP and a lolz

Funny that this may have been the event that changed Atlasian politics. I doubt anyone a year ago would have predicted a United Right, a United Left, and a United Center.

I think Atlasian politics changes violenty and rapidly.  I don't know how long a unified left, right, and center can last.  The unified right should last awhile because we know how to run a party and accomedate all our members, the question is whether the other two can do the same.

Statement on Statements

I forgot that I used to issue statements and I have stopped, so I now am issuing a statement to announce the return of statements.

[DownWithTheLeft]

We are becoming too spread out, as I noted we need to return to our DS roots more.  We've haven't recruited a member in the DS in an amount of time I cannot remember

What good is virtually owning a region...

You don't see anything wrong with this?

What's wrong with it?  The JCP owns the Pacific.  Just because you are jealous does not mean it is a bad thing.  Its not like states in America aren't dominated by one party at times.  We certainly welcome all to participate and the minority sometimes has their way (see the assembly defeat for now).  We certainly could have done things like removed Dibble from magistrate, but we didn't do that because that would have been absurd.  Other than keeping the Governor's Plantation and the senate seat, our domination isn't something sinister

[DownWithTheLeft]

You didn't do that because you couldn't. Don't lie.

No, we honestly could have removed Dibble and it was floated around as an idea when we first took control.  However, we felt it would not have been in our best interest and he did not do anything to deserve the ax. 

We could simply recalled him with 6 RPP signatures and a simply majority vote.  Duke also could have appointed someone new to be approved by the voters at the next election.

Appointment of Dean

I just realized that I had never officially appointed a "party dean".  According to our posted by-laws, the dean of the party is responsible for settling a dispute that arises between the chair and the vice-chair.  It is with great honor that I formally appoint, in public, BrandonH as the dean of the RPP.


Re-Appointment of Regional Chairs

As per my job as chairman, I am required to appoint regional chairs to help with recruiting in GOTV efforts in each region.  Since there has been some confusion as to who chairs what region, I would like to formally reappoint all our regional chairs:

Northeast: RowanBrandon
Mideast: Tmthforu94
Midwest: dead0man
Pacific: Ronnie
Southeast: Daniel Adams

If any of these regional chairs feel that someone better would be suited for the job, feel free to post so or let me know in a PM so I can get a new regional chair.  It is important to our growth as a party that we continue to spread across every region

Statement on Pacific Lt. Gov. Race

The RPP offers it full endorsement to Alexander Hamilton in his bid for Lt. Gov.


Statement on Free Trade Agreements

The RPP supports any and all free trade agreements much to the chagrin of Fmr. Gov. BenConstine

One year anniversary party on Friday!!  We will be celebrating I'm just not sure how

One year anniversary party on Friday!!  We will be celebrating I'm just not sure how

A lot of anniversaries are coming up. On Wednesday it will be One year since I decided to darken the halls of the forum.

Come to think of it, today is 3 yrs since I did the same

Statement from The Chairman

While it may not have seemed like a long-term venture at the time, the party that myself, Duke, and SPC founded has turned one year old today.  It has not always been easy, and perhaps the beginning was the toughest, but we have climbed a lot of hurdles and showed once again that conservatives can have a voice in Atlasia.  There is still plenty of work to be done, but as we enter our second year, we are truly a nationwide party with a prescene in every region.  What seemed like a short-term fling has turned into long-term success.  Thanks to all who have made this day possible.  And here is to a successful future

RPP ENDORSED AUGUST BALLOT

1. RowanBrandon/SPC
2. SPC/RowanBrandon
3. PurpleState/Franzl
4. Franzl/PurpleState

I know its kind of early, but some of the party members seemed confused about the direction this party is headed in.  As always, this vote may affect future endorsements by the party

[DownWithTheLeft]

Do we have to issue regional endorsements?  I mean seriously I think everyone knows who we support in each election.  If anyone actually wants to have a vote on that stuff, I gave I am obligated by by-laws but seriously it would be a huge waste of time.

[DownWithTheLeft]

I agree with you Big Bad Fab, but that actually wasn't even what I was thinking about

Anyway, just vote for RPP candidates

[DownWithTheLeft]

I agree with you Big Bad Fab, but that actually wasn't even what I was thinking about

And you were thinking about... ?

I was just thinking that it made no sense to endorse when every race is either unopposed or between an RPP candidate and a non-RPP candidate.  You did bring up an interesting point though
