A few questions directed to Mr. Brandon. Why are you running for the Governorship of the Northeast? What are your opinions of the Northeast Region's inability to produce any legislation for the last two months during our monthly proposition thread, which the Northeast was once famous for? If you are elected Governor, how will you combat this?

Mr. Brandon, might you please be able to take the time to answer these questions which I asked you more than four days ago? Much appreciated, your Lieutenant Governor, Rockefeller Republican, or presently known as "Jimmy the Flute".

Conor: What's your stance on Class A Senators and the Trondheim Amendment?

Sorry for the delay Smid, here's my answers regarding your questions regarding the Trondheim Amendment. To be quite frank with you Mr. Smith, as of yet I am undecided about whether or not I should support the Trondheim Amendment. Whilst on one hand it would revitalise the ever so boring Senate contests held during February, June and October, which would be great for the nation, on the other hand it would be yet another devastating blow for the regions, thus all but removing the meaning of a region in Atlasia.

First, I am running for the Governorship of the Northeast because we need to bring accountability back to Atlasia. People will be now held accountable for their inactivity and inaction. Change is needed for the Northeast, and I am the person to bring about that change. I am embarrassed by the inaction of our leaders to present legislation to bring the change needed to the Northeast. Something needs to be done and done fast. I promise I will veto every pork barrel spending bill that comes across my desk. I will bring the reform that is needed. And I promise you, when I get into office, there will be many pieces of legislation that will be presented, because I will be working for the people. I will not be in the pocket of special interest groups. I represent the people of the Northeast and will work my hardest to ensure that the Northeast will get back on track. Inactive senators may be asked to take a back seat, or will be asked to resign their positions. These people were elected to change Atlasia, but Atlasia changed them. Now they must be held accountable.

Firstly I appreciate your comments regarding my questions. However, I would like to point out a few flaws in your statements, particularly those regarding the Northeast, in which you are running for the office of Governor. Firsly, are you trying to suggest that every single Northeast citizen is responsible for the recent inaction plaguing our region at the present? Because, judging from your use of language it seems that very way. I admit under the leadership of Lief as Governor of the Northeast we have not acheived legislative greatness as seen under Governor's MAS and AndrewCT. However, we as citizens of the Northeast will strive for that glory once more, when the next Administration takes office this October. Also, if you are elected this October, how exactly will you improve the activity in the monthly proposition ballots?

Secondly and finally, we do not have Senators which vote upon monthly legislation. In fact every registered Northeast citizen can propose legislation in the monthly proposition ballot, and in the process can vote on the items of legislation that have made it to that particular month's ballot. Only of course after that have the signatures of three Northeast citizens.

Well, there should be Senators which vote upon legislation. I would change it, I would make 2 elected Senators from the Northeast who would report back to the Governor on any proposed legislation. If it passes the initial vote from the Governor, 2 senators, and LT Governor, then it will be presented to the Northeastern people for a full vote. That is what I propose to do, to get the Northeast back on track.

Although I appreciate your comments Mr. Brandon, I'm curious as to why the Northeast should have only two Senators in your proposed Northeast legislative assembly. Surely if such a plan was to be undertaken if you were to be elected Governor this October, the Northeast should have more Senators in our legislative assembly, as we are the most populated region in the entire nation. Thus, I doubt that one Senator per every fourteen constituents would do the proposed Northeast legislative assembly justice.

Just curious, how exactly was KoTBP elected?

https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=77832.0

Dave was the only Southeast citizen that voted in the election and King of the Bench happened to be the only candidate running. Thus, Dave voted for King of the Bench and he was ultimately elected Governor of the Southeast. Shame he did a Harold Holt prior to swearing himself in however.

What? He was picked up by a Chinese submarine?

My Grandad used to tell me it was the Japanese Angry

I'm surprised that the temporary disappearance of King of the Bench until December 2008 didn't get Atlasian conspiracy theorists going. I mean there are so many possibilities, more than what those 9/11 conspiracy theorists have accumulated over the last several years, as to where the "King" went. I wouldn't be surprised if a Southern Belle took him and held him hostage for months on end, even the possibility those kids from the documentary Spellbound annoyed at his lacking ability to spell had something to do with his disappearance.

By jove is that a hilarious website, I believe it has inspired myself to create such a website regarding King of the Bench Press! Shame I'm not all too good when it comes to creating websites though Sad

Despite Gary Simmons having invoked the web site regarding the disappearance of Harold Edward Holt, 17th Prime Minister of Australia, under the Second Law of the Universe, it falls agonisingly close to Conservapedia's Page on Barack Obama. Hilarious stuff.
