Savoy, could you update the OP with the new characters and maybe link to each characters' profile as well?

no

Sorry for my nearly week long absence. I've got a lot on my plate as far as School and Work are concerned. I think I'm going to drop this RP. I'll post in the IC about my character ending his run for the presidency.

Understood. Sad to see you go.

If Nemov drops out, do his supporters gravitate towards Finelli? He seems to be the other sorta centrist guy. Looks like the progressives may have to unite quick after Super Tuesday.

Awww....why?

Working 30 hours a week and finishing up your sophomore year of college aren't conductive to active RP :/

I'll actually wait till we finish up with South Carolina and Nevada so it seems believable.

That's too bad.

That's unfortunate

Yeah, I think Finelli is the most similar candidate. Although some might be turned off by his bravado.

[Hillary Clinton 2016-2024]

Don't forget my character was Mayor of Worcester,Massachusetts

[Prolieum]

So, do we have any update on who the shooters were, or who planned the attack? My money is on Wells-she very suspiciously ran up on stage, then disappeared before the shooting started.

[Neo-Chicago]

Don't forget my character was Mayor of Worcester,Massachusetts

Despite the fact that you're currently a senator in Oregon.

[Vzysokarus]

So, after thinking about it I'll probably stick around the Congress Thread, maybe publish an OpEd in the IC. I'll be minimizing my presence here. But I think I can pull off staying around for a bit.

[Republic of Coldwater]

Gonna apply for a second character

Character Information Sheet

NS Nation Name: Republic of Coldwater
Character Name: Idi Amin
Character Gender:
Character Age: 88
Character Role: (Senator, Representative etc) President of Uganda
Appearance: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/ ... i_Amin.jpg
Character State of Origin: Koboko, Uganda
Character Affiliation (Democrat, Republican or Non-Aligned): Non-Aligned
Main Strengths: Charisma, respect inside Uganda, Efficient commander
Main Weaknesses: Hated outside of Uganda, Short tempered, Brash
Short Bio: Idi Amin was born in the 1920s in British Uganda, and grew up relatively poor, and with little support, coming out with a fourth grade education, and with seemingly little to offer. Yet, the young Idi didn't falter, and joined the King's African Rifles as an assistant cook in 1946. Slowly and slowly, Amin rose through the ranks, and became one of the first Ugandan officers in the colonial unit, at the rank of Lieutenant. During his time in the army, he participated in boxing, swimming and rugby, all to reportedly great vigor and success.

Following the independence of Uganda from British control, Amin, despite initial setbacks took power as the omnipresent totalitarian dictator president and field marshall we know today. Building Uganda's military and bloating the size of government, putting the government's nose in everything caring for the citizens of Uganda, Amin inspired a sense of fear of being taken away at night and "disappearing" awe, and love towards their leader in the Ugandan population. Today, Amin continues to be hated for his abuses of human rights, civil liberties and personal freedoms loved for his innovative tactics to ensure the legitimacy of the state and his rule the safety and prosperity of the Ugandan people, whilstsending Uganda down into the shitter making Uganda Great Again
Other Info: IDI AMIN FOR GENERAL SECRETARY!

OOC standing for Ordo Occidens Conquestus, or "Order for the conquest of the West", which I assume is the secret organization that Wells has been secretly working for.
