Tweed for President 06/12 campaign HQ

I always think of it as BIG-wah for some reason. 

Me too.

Ditto.

[Simfan34]

As an ostensibly "rich" person owning a Capital Region country estate and a Upper East Side townhouse, and an entrepreneur, what will President Tweed do for me- or not do to me?

Perhaps what Atlasia needs is a real-life Business Plot. Or at the least, a President Clarence or Constine.

[Simfan34]

The party system must continue to be amended to allow for the continuation of our multiparty system- it should be strengthened, not confined to two. The right is also divided- there is the Moderate Party, the IFP, and of course our own Whigs. The Whigs represent a new tendency in the right, a desire for a more compassionate conservatism, one rejecting the "libertarian-wilderness" tendencies of the old Right, and supporting a more organic, community based conservatism. Indeed, we were once the Communitarian Party, and if I were to have my way it would still be known as such- but we are democratic.

It too opposed the party dissolution, but Atlasians have made their bed, now they must lie in it, and it is likely they want to. Certainly to me the cultural reactionary-ism of Tweedism is appealing- and perhaps to my fellow Whigs as well- but the authoritarian tendencies of Tweedism and its opposition to the capitalist process would do nothing but destroy our state. It can and should be reformed- indeed, but the model that has brought us prosperity should not be discarded. This is what we should be mindful of.

I would join with you, Tweed, in your call for the reintegration of Atlasia with the community of the Atlas Forum, but of course Atlasia is a real, corporeal, nation. However we disagree as to how to get there.

And no, I was not seriously suggesting a coup. But again I ask you: what shall be my fate in a Tweedist Atlasia?

[Simfan34]

Such things are integral parameters of the nature of Tweedism.

[Simfan34]

If the Court makes Tweed president, I swear there shall be a coup.
