I suppose I could open the first turn earlier.

Speaking of turns, I will accept the suggestion to do two week turns, with a debate every other turn. First turn will last from September 1 to September 15, I will make an announcement regarding that soon.

[x-Guy]

Be sure to add Shapiro to that list of candidates. Also this is optional but I hope you send out reminders VIA pm to other players. Unfortunately many forget about even joining the game.......

[OBD]

May I sign on as Jeff Merkley?

Yes! Sorry for not noticing this sooner.

[Huey Long is a Republican]

can we get national and state polling for both parties and a description of the events this turn? it woudl really help the players be able to flesh out the campaign

Yes. You mean after or before the turn?

during this turn (make it the turn opener). also, will there be debates this turn?

Okay. I'm unsure if I can get the events out but state polls will be out. No debate this turn.

Personally, since I'm (supposedly) doing the debates, I'd prefer to have a debate each turn, but with only party per turn.(Republican debate on turn one, Democratic debate on turn two or vice versa).

I was under the impression you were just proposing questions, but I'm fine with you moderating. Your proposal should be fine if you want to message the Republican candidates with the debate questions for this turn.

Unfortunately, I'm more comfortable doing it in-thread, but if you want me to do the debates via PM, I'll swallow my pride.

[KaiserDave]

Is there a debate this turn?

[NewYorkExpress]

Is there a debate this turn?

Yes, for Republicans only, which I am sending questions for now.

If there are any grammar errors, people I apologize.

[KaiserDave]

A smallish request

The whole single payer being pushed through I find somewhat unrealistic. It also shakes things up A LOT. Would it be too much if that was replaced by something else?

Tell me if I'm out of line here or if I've got a point

Yes and no. It only makes sense if Democrats have the votes to override a Trump veto, which given the number of red state Senators, they probably don't.

[Jaguar4life]

Jaguar I like former Reds 3rd basemen as well but Rolen shouldn't be in the HoF

For what he did with the Cardinals and Phillies yes he sure

I suppose you two have a point. I'll edit this out.

The Trump HHS would never enforce it

If you haven't noticed, polls for the GOP are up while polls for the Democrats and general polls are on the way.

We need some more Democrats, Gillum and Abrahms are good. But I wish we'd one or two more.

[McGovernite]

As asked by the Moderator, here are my answers to these questions:

1. Do you believe your service in President Trump administration will be a benefit or a hindrance among Independents?

2. Republicans have never nominated a minority candidate for President. What makes you think you will be the first one nominated?

3. Do you believe Russia affected the outcome of the 2016 and/or the 2020 Presidential elections?

4. If Russia invaded a NATO ally while you were President, would you commit American troops to defending that ally?

________________________________________________________________________________

1. I believe that my service as UN Ambassador under President Trump will help me with the voting group that he has able to receive in 2016 and 2020, and will help me lead the road to a Stronger American by being President.

2. I think that I will be the first ever minority candidate on a GOP Ticket because the Republicans of America are ready for a Moderate, Strong, and Determined Leader. As President, we will ensure Foreign Policy that puts America First, and an Economy that puts America First.

3. There has been no showing of proof that Russia has rigged our election, which leads me to believe that Russia did not interfere. Not to mention, how hard it is to rig an American Election. President Trump won the Presidency fair and square, and served the American people greatly.

4. If Russia threatens or takes actions against any of our allies, the American people can expect Strong Leadership, and Ruthless Actions to ensure Democracies around the world are protected. My experience as UN Ambassador will also assist with my Administration's actions against the Terror of other nations.
