Just to point out that I do not and will not run on wedge issues.

Like my sig says, I don't know what to do.  When does this poll close?  I need time to research.

your vote can be decisive...

Jim Jeffords/Zell Miller (represents Al/Siege)

That's not even close to being a fair comparision

I don't mean to sound partisan, but why would we endorse one person who bolted from our party and another who never joined (to my knowlegde), rather a rising star of our own in the VP ticket?

I personally think that either tickets would make fine Presidents/Vice Presidents; I simply think that Al/Siege would be better than Lewis Trondheim/True Democrat based on what I've seen to date.  I vote based on who I feel would be best for Atlasia, not on what would most benefit the Democratic Party.
It would seem to me that you answer the question of "who would be best for Atlasia?" in the ballot box, and when deciding who the Democratic Party should endorse you go with the best move for the party.  You're certainly not bound to vote the party's endorsement in the end.
This isn't a question of who's best for Atlasia.  It's a question of who the Democratic Party should endorse.  And we should go with our member, True Democrat, and the guy who chose him as his running mate, Lewis.
Isn't Alcon a member?

Since I have become the anti-christ of the AFDNC, they often forget that.  I must say I am surprised how many of you ditched your support of Lewis.
Nym is the only one to have done that, really.

And, Al, it's not. But then neither is the comparison between Atlas Democrats and US Republicans, or between me and Ron Paul...or between KEmp and Evan Bayh.

I haven't "ditched" support of you really. I think both you and Al would make fine Presidents, and True Democrat and Siege would both be excellent VPs. It wasn't an easy choice. My main reasons for supporting Al are the greater experience of the Al/Siege ticket, and the fact that I think they would have a better chance of effecting positive change once in office.

I'm not angry...all I meant is that you once stated you'd support me, and Umengus and TexasGurl never did, while Gabu always qualified his support for me, thence they could not be said to have ditched me.

After much consideration, I vote to endorse Al/Siege. 

You both would make great presidents and would be better then KEmperor.  Both your signs will remain in my sig and I'm still unsure who I will preference first.

Ok, I see what you mean. Makes sense now.

My first preference certainly isn't set in stone, I am definitely persuadable, but at this time I lean toward Al/Siege for the reasons listed.

This closed at 12:01 today, sorry to Democratic Hawk and Lawrence Watson, but you cancelled each other out anyhow.

Lewis Trondheim wins the AFDNC endorsement. The convention will be soon.

Despite an early scare, I'm very proud that my party decided to make the best choice that gives us the best shot for victory.  Kudos to all.
