Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.

Senator, do you think you're handsome? Also, do you have a Final Solution on, uh, abolishing poverty in Calaverde?

"The New Democrats represent, what I feel, are non-partisan resolutions to problems that face real Calaverdeans face. While other parties break down into bickering over their different ideologies the New Democrats formulate solutions, solutions that work. As a Senator I believe that this what defines a good politician and a bad one, a bad one presents solutions based on his political leaning, a good politician presents solutions that benefit the most amount of people, and work in practical life."

"Do I think I am handsome? Oh no, I know that I am handsome."

"Our Final Solution for the total eradication of poverty in Calaverde is quite simple. I have made a three step program to get rid of the poverty problem once and for all. The first step is to recognize what the problem causing poverty is (It's those Goobacks who keep taking our jobs!). The final step will then be to have poverty completely abolish and everyone in Calaverde making money."

Maria Kamilia Haverkamp (née Chmielewski) - Democratic Left
Image

Account Name: Ainin
Occupation: Member of Parliament
Party Position(s):
None

Positions in Government:
None

Constituency: San Cristobal―Victoria―Central
Political Ideology: Democratic socialism
Family: Nick Haverkamp (spouse),
Background: Maria Chmielewski was born on 18 June 1986 in Warsaw, capital of the People's Republic of Poland, into a family of four children. Her father was a local minor official of the ruling Workers' Party and her mother worked at a textile factory, and she was raised in a middle-class setting. In 1989, Solidarity paralysed the streets of Poland and forced the communist regime to give up power and hold free elections, ending 44 years of Russian hegemony over the country. The rapidly changing political scene caused her father to lose his job, and the family had to move to Gdańsk (Danzig) in order to make ends meet.

Her adolescent years were not particularly remarkable. She did well in school and had an active social life, and coming of age in the decade of newfound personal liberty in Poland, she benefited immensely from the 1989 revolution. She was admitted to the University of Gdańsk at age 20 and while there, met an Adrianer Dutch exchange student by the name of Nick Haverkamp. They fell in love and married two years later. She moved with him to his native Calaverde, and they settled down in Willemspoort in 2008. She became an accountant and he became a freelance journalist.

After the junta fell, the couple moved to San Cristobal due to Nick's job and she ran for local office as a councillor for the prefecture of San Cristobal Central. She resigned her seat on the council after half a term to run for national office, and was elected with 36.8% of the popular vote in San Cristobal―Victoria―Central, the constituency that more or less covers the city's central business district and downtown.

Cipriano Cortez (33) - Civic Reform Party
Image

Account Name: Lykens

Occupation: Member of Parliament

Party Position(s):
Interim Chairman


Positions in Government:
N/A


Constituency: Arecibo

Political Ideology: Fiscal Conservatism, Internationalism, anti-immigration, Right wing

Family: Father, Epiphanio (54) Mother, Constanta (52) plethora of other Cortez family members

Background: Born March 14, 1982 to Construction Magnate Epiphanio Cortez in San Cristobal, Cipriano was the eldest of what would be ten children. Raised in a strict Roman Catholic household, his father's version of the basic tenets of church, family, and business were instilled in him from a young age. He went to a prestigious and religious private school which further instilled in him anti-left wing and bigoted views. By the time he turned eighteen, he was what would appear to be a run of the mill bigot. His later exposure to American values led to the realization of his sexuality, which he has so far kept under wraps, considering his strictly catholic family.

He journeyed to the United States for college, majoring in Business Administration and Political Science. When be returned to Calaverde, he assisted his father in running the business he owned with his several brothers. Unbeknownst to Cipriano, the construction company was simply a side business in a larger more shady enterprise. His father was actually a Mafia Don, running drugs, guns, prostitutes, and whatever else could pull in a profit, through and into Calaverde.

Ever the optimist, he jumped right into the business, finding numerous ways to reconcile his actions with his religion, in addition to many other activities. He became his father's right hand man, and profits in all of their enterprises rose. Seeing an opportunity to kicktart a political career, Cipriano founded a right wing party with several like minded individuals, and trounced Opposition Leader Kenneth Diaz in a landslide.

He now serves as an interim Chairman of the Civic Reform Party.

Faith: Roman Catholic

Likes: Supposedly women, money, hard liquor, cigars, good deals, low taxes, conservatism, family, black coffee, good investments, good contracts, compliant board of directors, steak, lasagna, fine wine

Dislikes: Ultra Feminists, high taxes, liberals, liberalism, Social Justice Warriors, tea, bad deals, bad investments, flan, fast food, cheap wine, 'Beggars' food, Kenneth Diaz

Any Questions from the Public to be answered?
  • "Are you gay?"
    "No."
  • "Thoughts on Libertarianism?"
    "Interesting ideology, one for some people but not all"
  • "Are you sure?"
    "Yes."
  • "So you are saying that if, theoretically, a young, well-endowed Prussian lad were to proposition that he 'hide his Virginian bull worm in your cave', you would say no?"
    "I'm not going to ask why a Prussian fellow owns a Virginian Bull worm, nor am I going to ask what that is."

    "Great questions My 4th sibling died when I was 11, so as you can imagine, I was very young. One died in an accident, the other three because of the poor conditions in rural Calaverde. Initially, it deeply saddened me, and it still does. However, it's really convinced me more than anything that things don't always fall into place. Some say I'm cynical, I think I'm realistic."

  • How much wine do you drink?

    "Probably too much. Feel free to join me."
