I nominate CG.

I nominate Falcon02.

I would Gladly Accept this Nomination. Though I am going to be focused more on wining the Presidential Election.

I Accept.

However, I must mention that from July 3-7 I will be on Vacation and likely will not have Internet Access, so my Deputy would be garenteed to take over for me during that period.

I nominate bewareofgnomes

I'll second bewareofgnomes for Military Leader.

I'll second you, BoG. You did a good job in the Democracy Succession Game, I'm sure you'd do well here.
