FIRST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE

[JohnFKennedy]

I apologise for not arriving earlier, I was cornered by a gang of carrier pigeons who oppose the use of pigs to lead their deliveries.

In regards to who the worst of the declared candidates are. I would say personally that it was that young upstart rapscallion None of the Above. He has run in almost every election in Atlasian history and lost for a reason, None of the Above is a threat to National Security, he will let the terrorists in, he opposes Torte Reform and supports the implementation of the buffalo as a form of currency rather than the chicken. Clearly this is not safe for the Atlasian economy, buffalo are far too scarce.

I think the other candidates would all do a fine job as a powerless figurehead for Atlasia. I was told recently that I have been the only President to actually wield my powers and I will do it again if elected because we elect a President for a reason, and that reason need be filled.

Sorry I am late, I was kidnapped on Saturday by some friends and having been living with them pretty much since.

What is the one thing you hope to do as President that you hope will have the greatest impact on the economy of Atlasia?

I hope the Loony currency policies will have the greatest impact on the economy of Atlasia. The introduction of a 99 cent coin will mean less cost as we will not have to produce the inefficient and wasteful pennies. The introduction of chickens will also give us a more stable and lively currency that people will really want to earn, a currency that works for us while we work for it.

What is the one thing you hope to do as President that you hope will have the greatest impact on the security of Atlasia?

Reverse many of the current Secretary of State's positions. I do not feel that many of his choices will increase Atlasian popularity and may create anti-Atlasian sentiment while undermining our credibility in dealing with disarmament. I also think that doing so will make us more economically secure as sanctions against many trading partners will cause serious problems, especially when it comes to oil.

What is the one thing you hope to do as President that you hope will have the greatest impact on the enjoyment people find on these fantasy forums?

Be crazy and whacky and introduce more fun policies like my Vice-Presidential candidate's proposed Torte Reform.
