2012 CFC Presidential Election

[NickyJ]

As some of you may remember, CFC held its very own election last year, electing its own members as President and Vice President of CFC.

Another election is going to be held this year as well, in September. (The exact time will be chosen at a later date.)

This thread is for members to announce their candidacy for the Presidential election. But before you announce your candidacy, I should point out that to continue with tradition, you must choose a Vice President to run with you. If you do not have a VP on your ticket by the time the election is held, you will not be included on the ballot.

Also, I recommend that all interested people join the Town Hall to ask candidates questions, etc.

 

[W|M]

I propose that downtown be proclaimed ''Eternal King'', so that he won't destroy everyone in another landslide.

The Communist Party of CFC is up and running: west india man for President, NedimNapoleon for Vice-President.

What? Communists don't run for office! They seize it with fire!

 

[shadowplay]

I'm pleased to announce my candidacy for CFC president!

I will be running as a member of the Hipster/Douche party (henceforth H/D for short). The primary platform positions of H/D include legalizing weed, repealing taxes on cigarettes, and banning bags not made from hemp.

Now accepting VP candidates for consideration. Black clothing preferred.

edit: never mind

 

[SamSniped]

I announce my candidacy for CFC President, as a member of the Moderate Party.

Spoiler Wikipedia article, some parts slashed out that aren't of my views personally. i will make some statement later. :

Moderates within the GOP tend to be, to varying degrees, fiscally conservative and socially liberal, though there are others who are socially conservative and fiscally centrist. While they often share the economic views of other Republicans - e.g., balanced budgets, lower taxes, free trade, deregulation, welfare reform - moderate Republicans differ in that some are for same-sex marriage and gay adoption, legal access to and even federal funding for abortion, gun control laws, more environmental regulation and anti-climate change measures, more federal spending on public education, fewer restrictions on legal immigration, and for some, more relaxed enforcement of illegal immigration and support for "sanctuary cities," abolition of the death penalty, civil rights laws, legalization of drugs, embryonic stem cell research, anti-war policies, or any of the above. Deficit spending is a highly contentious issue, within this faction as well as outside of it. ... Others may support deficit spending, but feel it ought to be more directed towards social projects. Still other moderate Republicans are more centrist in their fiscal policies, in the tradition of Nelson Rockefeller. Concerning foreign policy, moderates may be less interventionist than neoconservatives, or place greater value on multilateral institutions.

Looking for a vice president.

[Ailedhoo]

I, Ailedhoo, declare myself for canadidacy for President as represenative of the newly forged Realpolitik Liberty Party. We strive for a ecomonically centralist democracy that supports civil liberties and political decisions not dictated by ideological dogma.

In other news I am looking for a second-in-command to become my vice president.
