Thank god for democracy right?!

Seriously, though, if this is about me. Every candidate campaigns. I sent out PM's. We didn't win. I could've and should've done more. But to think that a political party has the right to stop me, or any other candidate from being a candidate, because that political party leader either views that candidate to not be campaigning or has a vendetta against that person, is entirely and wholeheartedly ridiculous.
Well, yes it is against you. I like you at personal level and I don't have any personal vendettas against you, but you clearly sucked as a candidate and you should have been replaced before the happening of this disaster.

I entirely blame myself for the loss, but to think that I sucked as a candidate is a bit of a stretch. You are more than welcome to tell me who you would've put instead, eh, never mind, it really doesn't matter. You see me as who you want to see me.

The campaign was extremely close. If you have suggestions on how we as a party can improve, instead of bashing a former standard bearer, please message myself, I usually don't "suck" at reading comprehension, or Truman, Blair, or Adam who would more than love to increase our base.

Losing does not make you bad. Or "suck". I do not consider Truman to be a bad campaigner, I don't consider Blair to be a bad campaigner, I don't consider anyone who has put themselves forward as a candidate for President and not succeeded to be a bad campaigner.

On the flip side, I do have the utmost respect for you, and understand that you have a way of lashing out and acting very (expletive)ish, something that you openly admit. We as Labor are a family, as I see it, we have our ups and we have our downs, we have our problems, but we also come together for solutions. Please join the solution.
Again, let me tell reiterate that I do appreciate you at  personal level. You have many qualities that I have noticed during previous games (Lumine's games most notably). However, sadly, running an efficient campaign for this presidential campaign isn't one of the quality you possessed. Just to be clear I do not want to ban you to run for offices in the future and I encourage you to run for office as activity is always good for this game.

However, regarding this campaign, the left had a massive demographic advantage that sadly dfw managed to overcome. Why? 2 reasons:
- he's an efficient campaigner
-the second reason is that you and SG (I reiterate I like you both at personal level) didn't campaign at all. For example, I didn't get a single PM from both of you, not even asking me to vote for you. And I know that behind closed doors there were some plots to overthrow this ticket because you weren't campaigning. (I wasn't part of these plots).

So yes, I believe this proposal is a good solution: a ticket who doesn't campaign should be replaced. I'm obviously open to improve my proposal in order to make it more democratic, but this is a good start.
