Atlanta - The Confederate States of America, July 2003
A massive crowd had gathered at Liberty Square. Entire shops had closed for the afternoon. Some factory workers had even left their posts to see what all the commotion was about; something that could get them fired. President Barlett took to a podium, a large Confederate Flag draped the stand.
It's funny. The President thought. Not 5 years ago I was in their same postion, striving to get a better look at President Greene.
"My Fellow Americans. We live in violent times, we must not forget this. Everyday, across this great continent of ours, nations gobble up parts of other nations. We must take action to prevent this. Currently we are surrounded by powerful nations, al of which have the capibility to invade out free nation. Therefore, I have asked Congress to pass the following propisitions:
1) The Building of Two New Full Fleets, roughly 500 Ships
2) The passing of a conscription law, able bodied men from ages 21-40 must serve two years when picked at random if this is to be passes.
3) The Expanding of All Arms industries.
The Passing of these laws will protect this great land, and you great people. I assure you, you will be thankful in the years that follow."
President Barlett turned around, and walked away from the podium.
