Oh, was this supposed to be in the NS forum?

Fine: thanks for moving it, anonymous mod.

OOC:
Well... they are all commies, more or less, so taking that into account...

The Knootian government would ((EDIT: but doesn't)) support Comrade-Doctor Robert Mikhailovitch, as under his leadership Demo-Bobylon wouldn't be much of an economic threat while still being somewhat like our ideology.
I would probably vote for the guy also IRL.

Comrade-Professor Dmitri seems like the wisest choice though, economically though I wonder what 'increasing equality' means.

Comrade-General Yuri is just the 'token moron of the election'. right? According to deep AIVD intelligence research done by infiltrators, psychological profling and watching those nifty polling programmes on TV, he's never going to make it.

Comrade Dmitri soulds like the best choice. He supports social equality and promotes industry. He will carry your economy forward, and keep equality in your nation for many years to come. However, i do not like that he wants to increase political freedoms, as this could end Communism in a nation all together. My stance would be to elect him, but keep him under close watch.

Knoot: Damn crafty you. Trying to mold us into your ideology, while ensuring that you're economically stronger. Crafty you! :lol:
Frenrir: Dmitri dreams of a communally-run archo-communist state. At the moment, we're a democracy with elected representatives, but that could change to become more like a Marxist everyone-taking-part system if he is elected.

Well, since the Confederacy of Effrenata has never managed to select a permanent Head of State, all of the Tribal Representatives and Marginally Empowered Bureaucrats will be watching your elections closely, Demo-Bobylon, to see how they turn out.

Speaking as Acting Temporary Everything Else, I would have to say that Comrade Dmitri looks least likely to make a nuisance of himself to everyone, which is a valuable quality in a Head of State. I myself have managed to remain ATEE for the longest stretch in modern history, simply by conscientiously minding my own business and being generally agreeable.

But you have to watch them carefully once you've got one, you know. They start getting ideas, and pretty soon they think they're special, and then they expect people to do things, and there you are, Nuisance City.

Good Luck!

Thank you for that post.

Knoot: Damn crafty you. Trying to mold us into your ideology, while ensuring that you're economically stronger. Crafty you! :lol:

Well, you'll have a good environment. Surely that counts for something too, doesn't it? Knootoss has a good environment as well, probably the best in SATO. But then again, I don't see these peoples as radical for as far as their programme as it s presented here. That is: you'll find them here too. The only difference is that I presume they are all against allowing people to set up their own business, no?.

They are all socialists, yes.

The poll looks close. Moontian supports Comrade-Doctor Robert Mikhailovitch, whose policies are somewhat similar to those of Moontian.

The poll looks very close. Last time Dmitri won. Now he's last.

It's neck and neck between Robert and Yuri.
