Howdy everyone! Welcome to the barbeque that'll never sleep! My supporters (and opponents) are invited to stop by and have some fun hangin' out in my (45 acre) backyard. The barbeque will keep going until the polls close, with a hiatus upon poll opening to go cast votes. Please, enjoy the games, entertainment, food, and people. While your here, feel free to ask me some questons about the campaign, or just chat with me. I'll be the guy wearing the "Vote for the cook!" apron. Smiley Hope to see you here!


BTW: The meats all soy, sorry! Smiley

I always get sick with soy products... Do you think I could throw some of my own burgers on the grill?... Just set them aside, and you'll remember which ones they are. Tongue

Alright, alright. I found someone who was willing to watch a second grill for meat products. Meat will start being served in the next few minutes. Smiley

This is a fun event. I appreciate that you are serving burgers, but I plan on hitting the hay between now and the election.

Sure. Come and go as you please. I am the only one that will be here the whole time, most likely. (I cant imagine the bags under my eyes by Sunday Tongue)

I have recieved some questions as to where my running partner has been recently. I assure you, Preston wants to be here running this as much as I do, but he made me aware ahead of time that especially near the end of the campaign, he would be very very busy. Yes, that does mean he will miss out on the delicious food and great music here at the barbeque, but he will be here to make a victory speech after the election. Smiley

Just givin' the money back. Smiley I ended up putting a little too much of my own money in the coffers, and we were never able to spend it all, so I figured, what better way to blow a couple million bucks? Unfortunately, we fell a tad short of being able to get Elton John, so you'll have to settle for Phil Collins. Tongue Luckily, the Police agreed to do a pro bono concert for the campaign on Friday.

Where's your running mate, the supposed "Presidential nominee?" His absence is the reason why I'm now undecided and not voting for the General.

Mr. Caldwell, unfortunately, made me aware ahead of time, at the beginning of the campaign, that the last week of the campaign was one that would be a filled schedule for him. Therefore, it fills me with sorrow to know he will not be joining us for the barbeque. Preston will be here for our victory speech. And if he never shows up, a President Speedy aint so bad soundin', is it? Wink But seriously, he will return to active participation upon the end of his commitments. I can promise you here and now that, with my influence in the senate, I will support and spearhead a campaign to remove an inactive President, but that, my friend, will never be necessary. Im afraid I cant do anything more to alm your nerves about it, nor do I blame you for wondering, but youll have to take my word for it.

So you're saying that if your running mate is very inactive as president of Atlasia, you're willing to lead the march to have him ousted from office?

Absolutely. When you are elected by the Atlasian people, you are expected to do whats best for them. In this situation, I would have to do whats best for the Atlasian people, and whats best for them is an active President. If Preston isnt being one, then he would have to be removed, and I promise you that I will use all the clout I have to make sure it happens. That being said, I honestly dont believe that will ever be necessary, as I am confident in Preston's loyalty towards Atlasia and want to perform this job with all the might that he has. But if that does not come to be, what must be done, must be done, and Ill be the one to do it.

Good morning! First, I would like to thank all of those who came with me from the Barbeque to vote early in the morning like this, and I am glad I got the honor of the first vote in the election. Smiley I would also like to thank all of those who will vote for Preston and I this weekend, and all who have supported us through this. I had my doubts at points in the campaign, and it was my supporters who kept me going. I have been grilling non stop for multiple days, so I dont have much to say. The only thing I want to leave you with is this: I am ready to crack down and help reform Atlasia, and, and I may be the only one saying this anymore, Preston is ready as well, and I just know he will be a great president. You know who else is? And yes, you can put this on the record as my (not Preston's, just mine) endorsement for second preference: Colin Wixted. I hope all of my supporters see the potential there as well. Vote Caldwell fisrt, Wixted second, thats what Im askin' for.



Best of luck to all, and Ill see you at the barbeque!

Well Speed, I created a ticket just for you... Speed/Colin...

I've been concerned with Preston's inactivity, thusly, out of friendship, I voted you for President and what would've been my second preference, Colin for VP.

Well gang, it appears the most interesting thing has happened. Preston has announced he will resign if elected. Therefore, a vote for Preston/Speedy has become a vote for me. Get out there and vote Preston/Speedy! Cheesy
