Another RB Presidential Election!!

Once again, the time has come for the people of Roach-Busters to elect a Presidential candidate. The Patriot Party has unanimously nominated President J.L. and Vice-President Calvin Cyprian to run for re-election. Here are the other candidates:

Harold R. Lord- Candidate of the Moderate Party. Considered far less of a moderate extremist than the previous candidates the party has nominated. Nearly every presidential candidate the party has ever nominated has been an almost fanatically radical middle-of-the-roader, but Lord's moderation is far more, uh, moderate.

Timmy Farter- Candidate of the Cringing Coward Party. Considered to be a wimp in international affairs, an ineffective and incompetent lout in domestic affairs, a radical pantheist, and an all-around loser. A hell of a nice guy in person, though, and has huge buck teeth.

Donald Megan- Candidate of the Neoconservative Party. Favors massive government spending and increased government, though he wishes to spend slightly less than liberals and increase the size of the government at a slightly slower rate.

John Lenin and Vladimir Lennon- Candidates of the recently legalized RB Communist Party. If elected, they will nationalize all industries, increase welfare spending, socialized medicine, higher taxes for the wealthy, a minimum wage, higher education funding, greater racial and economic equality, etc., and will work hard to improve workers' rights.

Lu Ni Man- Candidate of the Warmonger Party. Will make gun ownership and military service compulsory for all citizens. Will impose a 100% tax rate on every citizen, and spend money only on defense. Promises to entangle the nation in at least 10 wars if elected.

Jill Sprinton- Candidate of the Lefty Loosy Party. Will introduce more socialistic aspects to the government, and will pursue an authoritarian economic policy buy a libertarian social policy (pro-choice, pro-gay marriage, legalization of all drugs, etc.).

Che Trotsky- Candidate of the Radical Revolutionary Party. Will immediately establish an anarchy and resign the day he is elected.

Tanner, the village idiot- Not affiliated with any party. Is unsure of why he is running, and of the fact that he is running in the first place.

President J.L. picked up the phone. "Hello? Skar, I'll be damned! It's been ages! How have you b-" He nodded. "Ah, so you heard, eh? Okay...uh-huh. Sure, that would be great! Is 5 billion per candidate an adequate price?"

Thanks. You, The Parthians, and Skar can divide the candidates among each other to kill. Each of you will be paid 5 billion per candidate.

By the way, since we hire Skar so much anyway, we'd like to give him his own runway and mansion in RB (this applies to GE and The Parthians' agents also).
