Do YOU Have What It Takes To Be Chimaea's Next Governor?
Chimaea; Wombat News
On Wednesday morning Chimaea swore in its latest Governor. Needless to say, Tanya Bryce is a very nervous woman right now, riding on the razor's edge between populist rhetoric and political disaster. Since further breakdowns in law and order are inevitable, a new Governor will probably be needed some time in the next six weeks. (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=130576)
Having run out of viable candidates, Chimaean political leaders have already begun the hunt for the next Governor.
"A warm climate, immense political power, and all the cup-cakes you can eat," begins the new direct mail campaign. "You may have already been selected to become the next Governor of Chimaea."
Out of a sense of duty to the long-suffering people of Chimaea and to you, our audience, we have provided an English translation of the Chimaean Governor employment application:
****************
Name: ___________________________________
Date of Birth: / /
You would describe yourself as a lily-livered liberal / servant of the people / ruthless dictator
Would you be available to work for at least the next six weeks? Yes / No
Why did you leave your last job? ___________________________________
How did you hear about us? Wombat News / Head-Hunter Magazine / Other
Are your bags packed right now? Yes / No
****************
Just fill the form out to the best of your ability and send it to the following address:
Me for Governor!!
Governorship Applications Office
Magnolia House
New Sydney
Chimaea
It may seem simple now, but one should not get too excited. The current rate of gubernatorial turnover indicates that the job will not last for long. Much in the same way that everyone in North America will someday marry Britney Spears, it is statistically very likely that everyone will get a turn at being Governor of Chimaea.
Good luck Governoring.
