Honored citizens,
Whereas the constitutional article which would have defined how deputies are chosen, possibly including how the Vice President is chosen, was not ratified,
Whereas the Vice President was chosen to be the runner-up of the Presidential election in some previous demogames,
Whereas the Vice President was chosen by the President and appointed to the office in some other previous demogames,
Given the most logical and common-sense interpretations of the rules indicate that the Vice President should be chosen by one of the aforementioned traditions.
Executive Order: Chieftess is appointed Vice President for DG5 term 1. Since she is also the runner-up in the election, it follows that regardless of which method of selecting a VP is used, the same person would be selected.
Note: Executive Orders are not laws and should not be construed as such. They are subject to the will of the people, the same as instructions from any other government entity. Citizen comment on whether this is a practice which should be continued is welcome

Congratulations on your victory, Dave! 
As for your executive order, I have no problem with its enforcement provided that this appointed deputy position does not supercede Constitutionally recognized members in an implied Chain of Command. At this point, that would mean that the 6 Ministers should be chosen as DP before the Vice President.
And just to keep up appearances it may not be a bad idea for the President to request a Judicial review on possible dilemmas that may stem from his decision, such as the CoC. I know that this will sometimes be hard to predict, but let's do what we can to keep things on the level while we navigate through these somewhat lawless times. In closing, I would like to congratulate you both for a well-fought race and have every faith that our nation is in good hands.
Long live Japanatica!
Respectfully,
Donovan Zoi

Mr. President, congratulations on a well deserved victory.
As we have had a flurry of activity in the Judicial thread today, I was hoping if I, as Chief Justice, could ask a favor of your Office. That favor would be for you not to edit post #3 (DG5T1-EO1) in any way, until some of these matters are resolved. Thank you for your time and again, congrats.

This is to announce a job opening for a speechwriter.
Duties of this position would be to help with editing boring drafts of presidential comments into fancy, RPG style language. This is an administrative position so there is no restriction on holders of elected offices.

Turnchat Instruction Thread: 4000BC Tuesday 8/2, 2200MST(GMT-7), 0100 EDT, 0500GMT
Mr. President. I believe I've got it straight now. You're holding the Chat at 10pm Arizona time (as they don't practice Daylight Savings), so this would make it 10pm PDT (my time). It would also make it 1am (the morning of) 8/4 on the East coast USA. The problem I see now is that if you're holding the Chat on Tuesday 8/2, we're going to have to wait a couple of years, no? Tomorrow is Tuesday 8/3. At least on my calendar.
Or are you just testing us again?

I was confused because the dates were not given with each time. I wasnt sure if the chat actually happened at 00:00 today and i missed it or what.
