Teddy Jefferson-

We are glad too see your stances on many positions. Though I am personally a firm believer in the free market, an isolationist, and for decreased military, we simply cannot support a candidate that supports the despicable Corporate Alliance. Therefore, we have put together 600,000,000 NA Credits, which has already arrived in Mr. Jefferson's account. Our nations currency is more valuable than yours, so that should amount too about 1 Billion or so, of your currency. This is too be used in his campaign. If Mr. Jefferson is elected, we look forward too a long and happy friendship between our nations. Thank you.

Clandonia Prime will support the Imperial Republican party and donates them $40 million to help with their election campaign. We hope this election will remain democratic and that no socialists or communists will be allowed a position of government in Nova Britanica.

Today a terrorist attack struck Nova Brittanica. A series of political assassinations in South Nova Brittanica killed twenty citizens, all supporters of the Alliance Green Party. Meanwhile in Nova Brittonian Fiji, an unknown force took over a radio station and broadcasted a message that said that if you didn't vote for the Imperial Republicans, that you would die. When confronted, the Imperial Republican Party said that these attacks were in no way connected to the party.

The Empire may be interested in buying the loyalty of some of Nova Brittonian's politicians also. Our beloved leader, Emperor Nero, wishes to know if any of Nova Brittonian's senators and congressmen are accepting "campaign contributions" from foreign powers as well?

We are supporting Teddy Jefferson with $60 million time credits. We are also hiring a private detective agency to investigate dirt on all of the other candidates, compromising things in their past-- drugs, sex, moral flubs, avoiding military service and similar things. We are going to spend $20 million dollars on doing this. We are also going to pay $20 million dollars to generate false sensational information and negative rumors on the other candidates through various web sites. We will do a get out the vote campaign with a simple pamphlet-- 5million of them, 5 million buttons, lawn signs 1 million of them, and 1 million t-shirts for a total cost of $40 million dollars. We will hire 100,000 college students to handout these things for five hours at 8 time credits per hour for a total cost of $ 4 million. We are also going to do radio spots for the candidate for $20 million dollars, newspaper adds $20 million, and television adds $40 million dollars. A slight boost. $224 million total cost.

Paying for the Thomas Roosevelt babysitter special will include allegations of torture, sex, drugs and all kinds of evil things. It will be produced by Nova Brittanicans for Truth, a nonprofit corporation and will cost $100 million dollars and we will attempt to get it shown on night time television by Teddy Tuneup the liberal media mogul. In addition more money will be put together to try and create a real "babysistter" legal case for $10 million dollars.

For now, we will wait and see how the elections turn out. Also, we want to know what you mean by "sattelite state". As of know, a mercenary army of fifty thousand men are terrorising the Nova Brittonians liberals. Be aware, that if the elections turn sour for us, there will be a military coup. Have your forces ready to assist.

Trust me, when I am in power I will give you a Pledge of Fealty. Not only that, but if I make it there without a coup, I will make all other parties illegal, and the Holy Empire will be born. It is really best if we get there democraticaly, so we don't start a war. Nova Brittanica is not without it's military allies.
