Hey, now the following post really doesn't have to do with this thread, but I fugure I'll ask it anyway.
What's a good strategy for Prsident Forever bewcause when I first started I wasn't bad (I got Reagan to get 350 which isn't amamzing, but I had just started) Recently, Reagan lost for me 
. I couldn't carry Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, or New York and was obliterated in the South. 
What should I do to make my candidates do better?
Oh ya and if you do another won of these, I'd love to be included 
.
Well the 1980 scenario that comes with P4E is horribly flawed. It gives too much of an advantage to Carter and makes Reagan do much worse than he actually did in 1980. The same is also true of 1972, where there have been times when I've actually lost as Nixon through no fault of my own. My suggestion is if you want to play any historically elections go to 80soft.com and then go to the updates and scenarios page and download some third party scenarios for P4E which I have found to actually be better than the ones made be the 80soft programers, probably because they are Canadian and what do they know about American politics.
As for strategy there is always the run all the ads that you have in ever state on the last day of the election. This is a well known strategy/cheat that allows you to get some huge momentum on the last day.
My major suggestion is to keep making ads and run as many as you can to keep up your momentum. Spin every scandel you can on the opposing candidate, or candidates, and don't barnstorm in the last week of the election just continually make speeches.
You'll get a hang of it over time. What's even trickier though is Prime Minister Forever. That's impossible.
