The reasoning is not that complex. bgwah pretty much nailed it.
I believe in Pacific exceptionalism. Throughout the course of Atlasian history, the Pacific region has proven itself to be the center of intellectual thought and forward thinking. It has given birth to far more influential and important policy makers than any other region and has also contributed far more to Atlasia than any other region. Quite frankly, the success of this game is due entirely to the residents of our region.
Not only does the Pacific deserve another Senator, Atlasia needs another Senator from the Pacific.
Magnificent!
I am inspired, and I would like to ask my opponent Junkie a question, if I may.
Junkie, do you believe in Pacifican exceptionalism? Do you believe the Pacific is the greatest region in all of Atlasia?
(My answer to both questions is of course an enthusiastic "Yes!")
