Should Dave make a 2016 presidential election board right now?

[Mr. Morden]

Thanks Dave. Only one thing would make it better: appointing Torie as its mod.

I'm cool with being made a 2016 board mod, but it would have been nice if Dave would have asked us.  AndrewCT and/or Bacon King may or may not want to renew their gig from the 2012 board for 2016.  In any case, you asked Dave several months ago about having Torie replace (the now absent) Lunar as mod of Individual Politics, so it would be great if he could do that, or else make Torie mod of the 2016 board in place of one of the rest of us, and move the displaced person down to Individual Politics.

Or better yet, merge Individual Politics and Political Debate into one board, since it doesn't seem like there's a clear reason to have both.

Ugh.

Agreed, but I think lulz is more appropriate....spending his time wading in the cesspool that the board is guaranteed to turn into is lulz-worthy.

Well, my personal reaction was 'ugh'.  I didn't think about the board involved at all.

Very good, Dave, thanks!  Now, this guarantees that on the Atlas Forum and in reality we are 25 days from the kickoff of the 2016 Presidential Campaign! (Wednesday, November 7, 2012)

This is what's wrong with american politics.

I really hate Mikado for letting this guy off of mod review.

Only 31 more months until the first 2016 primary debate!

Approve of name change.

True, having him on any board would be fine with me.

Unfortunately, I doubt Dave is still reading this thread.  You should make a thread titled "ATTN Dave: Error on the 1824 election map", and then say "Sorry, that was just a trick to get you to read this thread.  Can we talk about making Torie a mod?"

You know, when you put it like that I cheer up. In just ten months I'll start playing my favourite debate soundbites around the house, and just 15 months after that my local corner shop will start to devote half an aisle to election paraphernalia. Thanks Mr Morden!
