What ticket are you guys running?  Did I miss the announcement?

Only the RPP members know who their candidate is. They're sworn to secrecy, not to reveal who it is until that candidate makes an official statement. So no, you didn't miss the announcment.

I'd honestly be surprised if you didn't know the ticket, to be honest I was under the impression that nearly 70% of Atlasia already knew

Which doesn't mean we're telling anyone that doesn't.

Looking ahead, the RPP plans, for the first time in their history, to contest all five senate seats

It's time to rebuild our party!

[Associate Justice PiT]

     It's time to become Atlasia's first truly national party in years!

Yeah we're not allowed to tell you we are running the unbeatable ticket of JewishConservative/cindywho.

Oh well, so we probably will (once again) fall just short of getting a second seat.  Either way, great job guys and the focus can now shift to October where, I think, we certainly should be favorites to win the presidential election

oh?

Our party numbers are much larger than last time and I have a strong feeling this ticket is going to attract a lot of support

Which ticket? Leadership already decided who's running?

Well, we do know that they will react publicly (snare, snare, symbol)...

I'm fairly sure this 'news' is obvious.

I think he thought I was going to announce your run for Pacific senate

But I don't think many people will expect the announcement so here it comes (in a post by itself of course)

Statement from the Chair

Well, I know I put out a lot of meaningless statements, but this one is certainly far from meaningless.  I was hoping this could be the 1000th post in this thread, and although its close it just feel short.  First, I want to say the following.  In August 2008, conservatism was dead in Atlasia, a few of dredged along in what was left of the ACA, the Republicans, and a few other fragmented parties that did little to nothing.  The party system was dead, turnout was done, and Atlasia seemed to be on its last legs.  Three braves souls, you know who they are by now, decided to give it one least chance and start a little fringe party known as the Southern Secessionist Party.  From there, you know the story, the party system was revitilized, Atlasia was saved, and once again conservatives felt like they had a voice. 

Now, it seems as if conservatives have forgotten what exactly the RPP is all about and why we were founded.  Complaining has taken over and people are questioning whether or not survival is going to continue.  Tales of demise are greatly exaggerated, as they always have been in the past.  However, I want to do something that maybe will change the perception of our party a bit.  I've never been known as someone to be selfless in Atlasia, mostly selfish, but at this point I need to do something that is good for the party rather than myself.

So without further ado, I would like to make the following annoucement.  The RPP as a party cannot have a chair who commands so much focus at this time.  So I will name a successor.  In my time here, only person that I allied with has ever shared my entire feelings for this game.  He was there from the beginning, encouraging me that what we were doing was worthwhile.  In fact, he coined the term Dirty South.

Ladies and gentleman, well mostly gentleman, I am proud to announce Fmr. Gov. AHDuke as the new chairman of the RPP.

[Alexander Hamilton]

Thank you for serving us as chairman and building our party into a strong national presence. We wish you luck in your future endeavors regarding regional rights. Also, I am excited to see the new perspective Duke will bring to the role and the ideas he has to build a better RPP.

     Agreed. This is a new era for the party, & it will be interesting to see where we go after this.

I wish the new leader the best.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

First, I want to thank DWTL for his service to this party and to this game. While we may not see eye to eye on every issue, I must admit that without him, Atlasia would not be the same. He brought the dedication and passion that all Atlasians should embrace. It was a passion that led to the creation of the RPP, and a passion that may have led to many, many controversies which sprang forth during his tenure.

But today we stand at a crossroads in the RPP. We have expanded a great deal in the past few months. We have made great strides in national recognition. Yet, we find ourselves dissatisfied. We did not win the two senate seats we expected to win. We have lost several high profile members. Neither of these sit well with me. Also, there are several scandals that are being thrown at the RPP, and as Chairman, I pledge to all Atlasians that if any illegal or otherwise shady activity that is unfair to the game is occurring in recruiting, I will make sure to stop it.

I am also up for working with other Atlasians of other parties for the good of this nation. I'm proud of the connections and friends I have made in other parties, and I hope that we will be able to use those for the good of the game in the future. I cannot say that my style of leadership will be anywhere near the style DWTL used, but I hope all members of the RPP, from the oldest to the newest, feel comfortable coming to me with any problems or concerns they have with the party, as well as ideas that they feel could better the party.

Again, I thank the former Chairman for the appointment, and I look forward to the road ahead. Let's get to work.

[DownWithTheLeft]

As a note, I will remain heavily involved in Atlasia and serve in the RPP in pretty much the capacity Duke has for the last year.
