His words were, "With a conventionl war, a terror attack, a civil war, unrest, economic downturn and recovery, and my own growing family, I feel it best that I do not seek a thrid term as your President. If nominated, I shall decline; Elected and I shall step-down. Please, these past twelve years have been hard on me." He said as he walked away from the Podium at Congress.

Election Day: The official results have been announced. John Smith is the New Presidentwith over 60% of the popular vote and 55% of the Electoral. Joe Kowalski comes in as second with 39% popular and 45% electoral. Mike Shuemaker has come in third with less than 1% popular and 0% electoral. It seems Shuemaker has also been thrown out of the country on a splintery pole.....This just in, President-Elect Smith is about to make a speech.

My fellow Marines, as your President-elect, I first promise to keep on the same course that President Kowalski has set us on. It is not one of destruction as Mike Shuemaker said it was, but one of recovery and prosperity. Look at our cities, those destroyed by the war of the past have risen as a Pheonix and is etter than ever. We are in need of a renewal of our country. Our economy, our infrastructure, and our morale all need a boost. I promise large tax cuts, and the abolishment of the recent war tax. Also, when I take office, all war bonds will be mature and ready to cash. Spend what you want or can, because CM is coming back and here to kick some serous ass!

Also, I am appointing my esteemed opponent, Joe Kowalski as my Vice President as well as to continue his previous job. In the event of my death, incapacitation, or capture, he will take command in my stead. Thank you, and good night.
