PiT/HappyWarrior for President June '09

[Associate Justice PiT]

What is this?

     She gives me a hard time for the fun of it.

[Associate Justice PiT]

RPP Vice-Chairman appears to campaign at his final stop of the race, in the French Quarter of New Orleans, Louisiana.

     I would like to thank you all for coming tonight. As our esteemed Attorney General, BrandonH, said, I have worked hard in advancing my party. Sometimes, real life intervenes. I may miss some votes, & not be the most active of posters in my future political career, but I will give everything I can at least, to fight for you if I am elected Senator.

     As I said in the debate, I always check this section of the forum first. If elected Senator, my duties in that office will always come above all other parts of the forum. I will do my best to dispose of those duties, but I may not be able to at all times in the future.

     The election begins tomorrow. I urge all citizens of this great region to get out there & vote. You must make your voices heard, so that whoever is sent to the Senate as the representative of this great region, there can be no question that it was the will of the people. I would also like to take the time to thank Bacon King & Gporter for running a clean campaign. My supporters have shown distressingly little restraint, but they (especially Bacon King) have been good at admonishing the supporters, rather than directing their ire at myself.

     Good night, & Dave bless Atlasia!

[Associate Justice PiT]

     It was interesting to write. I'm reading too much good literature though; I constantly try to foreshadow things in my speeches.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     If I told you, it would spoil the fun. You, however, know what I'm talking about. Even if you don't know that you know.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     I do. I am just letting you know what I mean before I say it (if that makes sense ).

[Associate Justice PiT]

     That's okay.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     Okay. The election will be officially underway tomorrow, but eh. Have fun.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     I think so. Anyway, I always welcome being pestered by you, DC_united.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     SPC hasn't had an L-CA avatar in a long time, as I recall. Anyway, I changed it because of the Republican party's increasingly inexcusable attacks on various places & people. The straw that broke the camel's back was the ad comparing the blind rabbi running in NJ-5 to Ahmedinejad.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     This isn't a fashion statement. I'm protesting here!

[Associate Justice PiT]

I'm pretty libertarian myself, but whenever I see a yellow avatar, I think that person is crazy or a pothead or both.

     I'm not a pothead, though I have been called crazy. That aside, there are a couple of folks with yellow avatars here who are not at all crazy. Or potheads (I think).

[Associate Justice PiT]

     Nice. At some point in the future, I might go back to the R-CA avatar for aesthetic reasons, though I do plan to register as a Libertarian.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     Not a problem.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     I will use computers at school & at work. Sure, I wouldn't be able to post on weekends, but it probably would last a few days at the most.

[Associate Justice PiT]

You could miss something urgent.

     Which would suck, but all Senators miss important bills. Such is life.

You won't have a computer at home? How can you post 30 times a day and late at night without one?

You can get an iPhone and that solves the problem.

     I have one now. However, the power company wants to turn off my electricity & it's unlikely that I'll get the money to pay them before they do, so that would mean a few days without computer access at home. Also, iPhones are out of my price range, sad to say.

[Associate Justice PiT]

How will you make people more active?

     I ask all of my friends to be more active in Atlasia, but I can do nothing to force them to do so.

Can't you take a check down to the power company's office? It can't be good to be without power for a few days!

     I have a $15,000 check. My mother plans to open a new bank account & put it in tomorrow. They would probably hold it for a week (it's a large sum of money). However, Friday of next week is also the deadline to pay the bill. You see what my problem is.

It's $15,000 a month for electricity in SF??

     No. She sold some bonds for $15,000.

so You won't make a policy?

     My policy is that I strongly encourage others to take an active part in Atlasia.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     You speak as if no one has ever done anything because I asked them to. Some of the people I have recruited  have indeed become at least minimally active. Dead0man & Generic both post here occasionally without me urging them at all.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     There's only a small group of people that post on this board near daily. They are active in the politics of Atlasia, which should count for something.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     I would support vouchers to pay in full for low-income families, as well as vouchers to pay part of the tuition for middle-class families. Of course, they could only get vouchers to schools that taught government-approved curriculum.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     I tend to support private schools, though I am undecided on the fate of public schools.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     They would not directly receive government money under my plan. Rather, kids would be paid to go to them. It's an important difference.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     I tend to think that children from poor families should be able to get an education outside of the bureaucratic nightmare known as the public school system.

[Associate Justice PiT]

    Eh. The major distinction lies in that public schools are publically funded. If we give poor & middle-class children vouchers to go to private schools, the schools themselves are not receiving the money. As such, they legally remain separate.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     It's close enough to the weekend that I think you might as well open it now.
