After over fifty years of service, Green Sun's first president, Earnest Equanant, is retiring. Two of his three kids are running, one as president, the other as her running mate. The polls will be open until the 15th.

Hmmmm.....which one is most likley going to aid me through my war?

Here are the leader specs:
General Ishamel will be a bit more aggressive while Tyrone Montoya will give a boost to all our negotiators

Natasha and Taylor will rule Green Sun much like Earnest did

Uziel Fastrin and Rua 'Aliba will focus more on the economy and Green Sun's self-interest

Ivan and Majid will focus on making Green Sun a true Communist Utopia.

We heartily endorse the true socialist party.

This may take longer than I thought.

You already know who I voted for I'm sure :D

The former president Earnest Equanant has a close relationship with all the participating parties.
Natasha and Taylor: His kids
Uziel Fastrin & Rua: Uziel is his clone and Rua converted him to Islam
Ivan and Majid: College buddies
Ishmael Kort and Tyrone Montoya: Earnest was a close friend of Ishmael's father, and Tyrone was a hotheaded drunk he met in a bar.

Bump!

OOC: The Commies are lookin's good. Too good. I almost didn't put them in since I wanted one of the others to win, but I had to in order to satisfy all the Communist nations out there.

OOC: Well, you didn't *have* to. :p But hey, I could use another ally. :)

OOC: Just because I might become socialist doesn't mean I'll interact differently^^

OOC: You need a Liberal-Imperialist Party!

OOC: That would be virtually impossible for me to do, since I don't know the specs of Right-Wing, Left-Wing, Conservative, or Liberal. So I stick to Green Sun's major parties.

The current Bretonian Prime Minister, John Jacobi, is dedicated to helping the lives of those less fortunate. His latest initiative is aimed at improving the terrible working conditions for people on Planet Leeds, for example. In addition to our extensive education and social welfare spending, and high tax rates, we lean in the direction of socialism.

But, at the same time, the government actively promotes businesses, with certain companies such as BMM being granted 'special dispensation' and crown approval to expand their business however possible. So we also lean towards capitalism.

So it was a tough decision to make. Help the people, or help the economy? We value both equally, but in the end it was decided that improving the economy now will help you improve people's lives even more later on. So Bretonia's vote goes to Uziel Fastrin and Rua 'Aliba.

Uziel Fastrin has strong feelings of both capatilsm and socialism very strongly. He believes that they are not two forces that are the opposite of each other, but systems that can thrive together if both are practiced correctly. Capatilsm, Socialism, and Democracy are the three basic needs of society to function to perfection. Although our citizens may not all be like this, our goverment officials are extremely friendly, yet have strong opinions and will not hesitate to tell others know.

Natasha and Taylor believe strongly that although Socialism, Democracy, and Capitalism are great platforms to work over, but isn't going to be the future of Green Sun. We have plenty of internal problems that need to be worked with, so if the Goverment works to make the people better by influencing them to our allies, friends, neighbors, even our enemies will make them better people and can function in our caotic world.

General Ishmael and Tyrone Montoya are on the platform of solving international problems. Green Sun has always tried to make the world better for our fellow man and we are highly active in foreign affairs. Ishmael knows when and what to send at what time and where. If there's genocide, he'll send in military to take out the military oppressing them and then send in the GS Humanitarian aid. Tyrone Montoya knows when to speak and not shoot, as Ishmael does, but is a bit better at listening and speaking Green Sun's ideas, which is why, despite being a drunk in an Irish pub when Earnest first met him, he is an excellent speaker and the first choice you'd want in speaking to you or for you.

Ivan and Majid are registered Socialists. However, they know the values of Captialism and Democracy and will not be corrupted by any of the three. Like Tyrone and Ishmael, they are not going to function as a President and his vice, but two presidents, only in name. They went to College with Earnest and made their ideas there. When Earnest founded Green Sun, both left Mongolia to advice their college friend on issues that would make it fair for everyone. And this is their platform. Everyone deserves not the same material goods, but the same chance at life. They are responsible for Green Sun passing the law saying College is free for anyone, regardless of grades or ethnic background. Polls seem to have said that most middle-class, lower class, and a section of the Upper class have voted for them, but will not speak on their reasons. The voters of the other parties are outraged by the majority's decision and the Green Sun congress fears that violence may sread if they win, but the rest of the Candidates as well as the former president have prepared speeches in the Russian and the Chinamen's defense if this is to be the case.

Bump!

In which case, I think we made the right decision as to where our vote should go.

However, Uziel doesn't appeal to those who wish Green Sun to be as active in international incidents. Uziel is more focused on internal issues, and less external.

Under my rule they would enjoy economic prosperity and total national security, without the hassles of so-called constitutions and liberties getting in the way of making people safe. I say vote for me, George Fabus, and in so doing, vote for your future, a great future it can be."


George Fabus





Ooc- Meh, what can I say, we're reaching out to the world.

Actually it's Ishmael '26. Green Sun is in the year 2026 but is very advanced.

3 hours left!

It seems trhat the elction was close, but President of UziCorp, Uziel Fastrin, has won the election. Earnest Equanant has personally congradulated him on his victory. Ishmael Kort, since he retired from the military, ahs bought a pineapple farm. Tyrone Montoya plans to run for congress. Ivan and Majid are going on vacation in China and Russia. Natasha and Taylor now are taking care of their father. President Uziel had this to say:

"I am very happy that I have grown from a cell in a test tube to the richest man in a great nation and is now the president of it. All the conflicts we are participating in are still going to happen. I promise that our economy, our goverment, and our society will continue to grow. For the last fourty years we have grown from a small nation of five million refugees, criminals who want to live a new life, soldiers from destroyed nations, people who wanted a better life, and most of all, the dreamers. Earnest Equanant was one of those dreamers. I was one of those dreamers. He looked at this chunk of land on the edge of North America and turned it into an active society. He has taken it and brought it to a new frontier. He has given me the chance to become the wealthiest man in over eight planets. I'm proud to be his succesor. I'm proud to be his clone. Most of all, I'm proud to BE YOUR PRESIDENT!" he ended with a loud shout. The crowd roared in responce. Fireworks went off. Earnest and Uziel shook hands. But as they were doing so, there was a loud boom as Earnest suddenly coughed up blood. Natasha and Taylor were horrified to see their father had been shot in the back. The lights shut off.
"What the hell?" Uziel said. Ishmael Kort pulled out a 10 mm, only for it to be shot out of his hand. Over three dozen men were holding them hostage.
"We are the Elite Crew. We will take control of Green Sun's goverment now. And there's not a thing you can do about it. We have accessed every system in Green Sun. Which means we control Green Sun and Risban's communications, lighting, and electricity. You are at our mercy," a man with sunglasses and holding a sniper rifle said. The others were dressed like him, only holding M-8s, AK-47s, even laser guns and Sonic busters. President Uziel bakced away from the stand.
"What do you want?"
