As the Regional Delagate for Marlboro Country I am currently drafting a proposal that is heavily favored in my region. Before I introduce it I would like to pole to see how well it may do.

No. If I want to donate my money to help a candidate I support, that's my prerogative.

Greetings:

The RCO's main complaint with this suggestion is that it falls outside the rightful jurisdiction of the United Nations. Our nation (and its dominions) has debated and confronted this issue often, and have changed views on it at various points. We believe it is better that the nations themselves determine these issues, rather than have their internal political systems dictated to them by UN fiat.

With Respect,
Minister of Foreign Affairs Voegelin, Royal Commonwealth of Oakeshottland (by permission of the ruling party).
