We need more people to fill the named positions within Congress. I will randomly fill the rest of the seats within Congress (depending on where the parties stand and everything), and then use dice to determine which way they vote. This way we have an accurate number of Congressman, and IRL the vast majority of them simply side with party leadership. The ones of you who still want to be simple Congressman with no title, you'll simply be one of the more influential ones, and whichever way you sway will sway some of your "AI" comrades, depending on how influential you actually prove to be within the RP.

But of course. Hitler didn't build the concentration camps himself.

I changed the shit.

I hope we go to war with Mexico over drugs or something.

MAJORITY FLOOR WHIP
MINORITY FLOOR WHIP

MINORITY LEADER

I may have to reorganize some people in Congress to fill these positions. As of now I'm giving Jas, Dalek, Alruniea, and myself the ability to have 3 positions. Your 3rd position may be within any section of government, yet, if you have someone within the White House, then it is limited to the legislative chambers.

Character 3 (OPTIONAL)
Name: Edwin Boyd
Position: Majority Floor Whip
Party: Democratic Party
Age: 28
Gender: Male
Education: Cornell University; PhD in Political Science
Religion: Christian
Family/Friends: No wife or kids, but has 3 friends, Michael (30), Josh (26), and Erik (29), that all joined him in politics, making their way up to Congressmen.
Background: Edwin is far from the smartest or brightest, but he does understand that loyalty and brotherhood can move mountains. He grouped himself in with his 3 lifelong bestfriends in high school, forming an alliance that would take them all the way to the top. All of the boys studied in politics and have been in politics solely their whole life. Now the Democratic Party is taking a chance and showing the positive values of Edwin by placing him as their Whip in the Senate. They are all from Austin, Texas.

Character 3
Name: Arnold Schwarzenegger
Position: House Minority Leader
Party: Republican
Age: 69
Gender: M
Education: BA in Business Administration, BA in International Marketing of Fitness, Doctor of Humane Letters
Religion: Roman Catholic
Family/Friends: Some dead parents, Five kids, A separated wife, A dickton of celebrities
Background: Arnold Alois Schwarzenegger (/ˈʃwɔrtsənɛɡər/; German: [ˈaɐnɔlt ˈalɔʏs ˈʃvaɐtsənɛɡɐ]; born July 30, 1947) is an Austrian-born American actor, film producer, activist, businessman, investor, writer, philanthropist, former professional bodybuilder and politician. Schwarzenegger served two terms as the 38th Governor of California from 2003 until 2011.

Schwarzenegger began weight training at the age of 15. He won the Mr. Universe title at age 20 and went on to win the Mr. Olympia contest seven times. Schwarzenegger has remained a prominent presence in bodybuilding and has written many books and articles on the sport. Schwarzenegger gained worldwide fame as a Hollywood action film icon. He was nicknamed the "Austrian Oak" and the "Styrian Oak" in his bodybuilding days, "Arnie" during his acting career and more recently "The Governator" (a portmanteau of "Governor" and "The Terminator" – one of his best-known movie roles).

As a Republican, he was first elected on October 7, 2003, in a special recall election to replace then-Governor Gray Davis. Schwarzenegger was sworn in on November 17, 2003, to serve the remainder of Davis's term. Schwarzenegger was then re-elected on November 7, 2006, in California's 2006 gubernatorial election, to serve a full term as governor, defeating Democrat Phil Angelides, who was California State Treasurer at the time. Schwarzenegger was sworn in for his second term on January 5, 2007. In 2011, Schwarzenegger completed his second term as governor, and it was announced that he had separated from Maria Shriver, his wife for the previous 25 years; she is a member of the influential Kennedy family, as a niece of the late Democratic US President John F. Kennedy.

Then he ran for a House seat in California.

minority Whip, a senator and a representative

Character 1
Name: Benedict Lawrence
Position: Minority Whip (Cream)
Party: DIPLOMAT (Or Republican, whatever is the minority I suppose)
Age: 36
Gender: MALE
Education: Oxford University
Religion: Church of England (Protestant)
Family/Friends: None in the US. Parents, Judith (68) and Harold (70) back in the UK
Background: Benedict was born in Battersea, London and raised to the highest standards of British life. A stiff upper lip is all he had known until he decided to venture into the new world in search of a better life, and so with his nil understanding of American politics and American - Anglo culture differences he set off to begin his time in the US political system. Within months he had found himself out of his depth, but still in his element and he quickly worked his way up to whip (cream, this pun never dies) level. Benedict never made many American friends, in fact he wasn't sure he had found a single American whom he actually didn't find completely repulsive, but still he soldiered on in typical British fashion determined to make sure his false gestures and constant politeness would be construed as friendliness by the boisterous and barbaric Americans allowing Benedict to rise into the ranks of the corrupt and immoral system of politics this unusual country adhered to.

Will Benedict become the first clueless President?
Will he finally acquire a friend and will he finally meet a likeable American?

Stay tuned to find out.

Technically, this probably isn't even legal, but we'll say he was born in the U.S. and then immediately shipped to the U.K., if the need arises. Accepted. Also, you're Republican.

Background: Born in St. Louis, Missouri, to an old family, Jon was always interested in politics, and his role model was Abe Lincoln. Elected as Mayor for two terms, and Senator for one(a lil money goes a loooong way), he made a bid for governor. And failed. And tried again. Didn't get the nomination. Finally, he was elected. After a successful term, first as governor, then as VPOTUS, he made a failed presidential bid. He supports socially and fiscally conservative causes.

Party: Libertarian.
Age: 38
Gender: Female
Education: PhD in Economics, Harvard. Bachelor's Degree in Political Science, Hillsdale College.

Background: Born and bred in LA, Valery initially had zero interest in politics. However, when she discovered how shitty the world is, she resolved to make it better. After earning her Degrees, she had a short career in local government, then was elected for the Senate.

I'd like for the first to be a bit more detailed in the background, because this guy seems to have some traits we're not being told about, however I do like the fact that you've made the first Libertarian. Accepted and accepted.

-Some of you no-name Senators might be getting moved to the House, just so you know. I'll finalize the distribution of those once we're good and ready to go.

The IC will be up tomorrow, either sometime in the morning, or in the evening, CST.

Some of the no-name senators and representatives may be switched around within the legislature.

Jas, your Senator character, Alexander, has been moved to the House and placed as Majority Whip.

Lavan, your Senator character, Valery, has been moved to the House.


Current standing represents the Senate through 3 characters, 1 Democratic Leader, 1 Republican Leader, and 1 Independent. The House is shown through 6 characters, 3 Democrats (Speaker, Leader, and Whip), 2 Republicans (Leader and Whip), and 1 Libertarian. The diagram detailing the full layout of each chamber shall be done shortly, and possibly condensed into a dividend, because my computer refuses to create a .svg with 435 dots on it.
