Yes, of course, once the turn is closed, which it has been.

Atheist Adam Carolla? Jim Dimwit? Michele B*tchmann?

Its time to kick this guy from the game.

Am I supposed to be the person who points out that that is completely in character for Trump?

No, it's in character, yet it's still not appropriate behavior, especially the last one. He could get the point across and have Trump's brash attitude without everything he says.

[OSR STANDS WITH PALESTINE]

I’m sorry for the rhetoric. I was trying to be in character

It's not really in character. Trump has a rough attitude, but he doesn't swear that blatantly on national television.

Exactly. I've talked to him, and informed him that he'll have consequences if he continues. As said earlier by others and I, he can get the attitude across without the language.

If Bloomberg doesn't reach 15% does he still debate in the general election

[_]

Make it so I have to get to 12%.

That seems like a fair challenge imo.

[wxtransit]

I waived that rule, so any candidate polling above 5 percent nationally is invited to the general election debate.

Did you get my endorsements?

Moderator's notes: This turn will last until Thursday night, at 11:59:59 PM CDT. Make sure to PM me ASAP if you need an extension, preferably after you read this sentence.

There will be a debate during this turn, posted right after this post and state polling.

You are allowed two endorsements per turn, so make sure to PM me your endorsements so that I can approve of them, and endorsements are first-come, first-serve.

This turn will last the month of October. Make sure to schedule your campaign accordingly.

A schedule is required. You can post 20 speeches or no speeches, but what is required for you to post is your schedule. It doesn't have to be detailed, just give me a short description of each day's (or week's) events.

Advertisements: if you poll more than 15% nationally, you may run two advertisements. If you poll between 10% and 15%, you may run one advertisement, and if you poll below 10%, build up your campaign so that next round you can have a shot at running advertisements!

(Nationally: ad thresholds are 5% for one ad, and 7.5% for two.)

Also note to Jaguar4Life, Carolla isn't polling above 10% nationally in the primary so he can't put out an ad.

[wxtransit]

Jaguar's ad will not be counted, as Carolla is below the 10% needed to run one ad.

In addition, I cannot stress enough how important it is for to read the moderator's notes which are in the turn post. I've been asked many questions over material covered in them, such as turn dates or ad requirements, which can easily be answered by a quick read.

[wxtransit]

I'm going to assume the deficit is still 585 billion since that's what Bush left it at.

Correct. Obama got close to nothing done, which additionally means that he didn't expand the deficit by a noticeable amount.

Hello everyone! I am just here to spread awareness for another game that's happening as well. We really need more Republicans and Democrats for "War for America." Things are really getting interesting plus if you're able to win the presidency you will be rewarded with a written custom timeline of your candidate's administration and the events that happen! Below is the link to the game! Be sure to post your candidate's announcement speech if you're going to play!
