Mock Presidential Race Pt. 3

31 Aug 2016, 16:37

Per popular demand, the Race is back! Same rules apply as previous races, however I will re-state some of the more important things in this thread,

-Everyone can run for president/PM/Chancellor

-Everyone can vote, whether you are a candidate or voter.

-Candidates can debate on this thread. Try to keep it semi-respectful otherwise I will request the thread to be closed under extreme circumstances (I'm pretty laid back on this, so don't be afraid)

-Voters may also question candidates and participate in debates.

-Voters may change votes at any time.

-If candidates wish to vote for another candidate they must resign from the race.

-New Rule: Candidates may NOT switch political parties to enable themselves to stay in race.

With all the rules Mumbo-jumbo aside now, let's get right into it!

First and foremost, the country you will all be running for is becoming the President of Germany!

Instead of setting political parties for you all to choose from, I am allowing you to pick any EXISTING political party in Germany. With the obvious exclusion of any sort of fascist, Nazi party due to Bytro's terms.

Check here often for updates or anything I add during the race. Everything will run relatively the same as the last 2!

Please format your application into the race as follows:

-Forum name

-Political Party you wish to represent

-Maybe give first address on some major issues

(Note: Bolding your application will increase the chances of me spotting it through all the debating! Adding this info will make it much easier for me to sort through things so I appreciate it !)

From there, the rest is up to you guys!

Good luck! Let's get RIOOGHHT into the debates

The party primaries will end September 16th!

Note: Any use of this format, or idea is prohibited on the Call of War Forums, unless consent is given by the creator- Vex03.

Make America Great Again.

WTF is wrong with you? That was genocide, famines are hard to prevent....

No, what I say isn't an excuse, it is the truth. The side that wanted slavery abolished won. Slavery wasabolished, end of.

You aren't getting the point, are you? A war was fought for slavery, then laws were introduced which made people unequal by law (Jim Crow laws).

Alabama bans self-pleasure toys. I don't agree with that, and it isn't part of my presidential program. Neither is racism. Let's get back on topic.

Your wet dream land of freedom isn't great, nor particularly free, and you seem to want to make Germany more like America. It is on topic.

Not if you're capitalist.

Yeah, but by 1962, on paper, they were equal. Anyways, I do not defend racism, and nor does my party.

I want to see a libertarian Germany, a Germany with market rules and prices like those of Hong Kong. You seem to want to turn Germany in to the new USSR, which, like we all know, didn't wind up very well.

The past is a foreign country.

Are you stupid? Not accusing or name calling, just asking.

You just defended racism, and on paper isn't good enough. This is from Wiki: Though the Civil Rights Act of 1968 banned discrimination in sale of homes, the norms set before the laws continue to perpetuate this hypersegregation.^[28] Data from the 2000 census shows that 29 metropolitan areas displayed black-white hypersegregation; in 2000.

Now where did I say that? Are you telling porkies?

A whole lot less famines have occured under capitalism than under communism.

How did I defend racism if I said "I do not defend racism, nor does my party." ????

Won't answer until you say where I said that I want to turn Germany into the new America. Seems that you are the one telling porkies.

You showed support for the side that won the US Civil War. This was also the side that let the losers make the Jim Crow laws.

This has no supporting evidence.

At this point, I'm probably mixing you up with Ocean, which I did with Hippo yesterday. I'll still look.

Yeah, it seems I totally mixed you up with Ocean @Pablo22510. Sincere apologies.

I never showed support for the side that won it. I merely made it obvious that the side that won didn't like slavery, and abolished it.
There isn't any figures to support one or the other, because the opinion of what is and isn't capitalism varies.
OK.

Then you can't make that (the prior) statement.

Germany cannot continue to let terrorism to run strife, we need to actively help the international community against terrorists, and help keep Germany and Europe a safe and free land.

Let me re-phrase: you can't make that (the prior) statement without looking stupid.

The revolution now supports Ellio, the only candidate not caught in this petty squabble.

All Elli said he will do is commit to a war that would be bad for Germany, expand the army (which Germans do not really like), and either change or fix the EU, which is okay as is while more pressing matters take course (e.g. refugees).

better a war with another country than a civil war, which is what we would get with pablo of you

It wasn't about slavery. It was about state's rights. Slavery was just a piece of the puzzle in that.

I never mentioned boots on the ground. No one wants that but what people want is more security at home and at Europe at large. Germany is the heart of Europe and so we must become the protectors of peace and defenders of Democracy!

Last time the Germans tried to be protectors of anything, WWII happened. Surprise Anschluss!
