Keep Progressive Conservative Party.

[nhmagic]

Aye

[DownWithTheLeft]

I motion that we officially endorse Vepres as our 3rd preference, he has showed himself to have outgrown his newbie mistakes and is a solid conservative and regional rights advocate.   While Mint fits this bill too, his association with Hamilton is sickening

Agreed, though I don't think third preferences will end up meaning anything.

Why not? The RPP won't get two candidates in.

[Scam of God]

What, exactly, is "progressive" about any of you morons?

[Psychic Octopus]

Progressive is a dumb name, and in general, so is the term "progressive".

So is your "Regional Protection Party". The "Regional Protection" part of the name flies out the window when one of these regions does anything "progressive".

Indeed. Notice the amendment in the Senate now; the RPP is blocking regional rights.

You're right. So second preferences won't end up meaning much either.

The Samuel L. Jackson Party or anything else that makes good use of paraphrased quote:

"I've had it with these mothering trolls on this mothering forum."

[Franzl]

You seem to not understand how the STV voting system works.

If your 2nd preferenced RPP candidate is not elected, then all his votes would go to your 3rd preferenced candidate.

     Assuming the 3rd preferenced candidate is still in the race. Otherwise it goes to the 4th preferenced candidate. That is fairly important in this situation, since Vepres might not have a large enough base to edge out the second RPPer in 1st preferences.

Yes, but my point is that it is incorrect to believe that lower preferences will be irrlevant simply because the 2nd preferenced candidate is not elected, which Brandon seemed to be indicating (if it wasn't meant that way, I apologize)

[Brandon H]

I know how it works. I don't believe there will be any other candidate that I preference not eliminated by the time one of the achieves the quota to get elected.

[DownWithTheLeft]

I motion that is our endorsed ballot unless someone objects within the next 24 hours at which point I ask that the chair would call a vote:

[1] DWTL
[2] AHDuke
[3] Vepres

Greetings RPP:

I posted this earlier to the ARC Convention thread believing Libertas was one of theirs. I then learned that he is apparently an RPP member and running under your banner for NE Assembly. (Correct?)

The reason I'm posting is I want to make the RPP aware of some VERY serious issues of blatant anti-Semitism by NE Assembly candidate Libertas. I wanted to make the party fully aware of his "character" (or lack thereof).

Please note both Lieberman's tie and Obama's lapel pin in the image attached to his post. We're REALLY not talking either subtle or "misinterpreted" here.

I'm no fan of thought policing or political correctness, but the evidence here is rather incontrovertible. I don't want to see this type of beyond the pale bigotry infect either Atlasia or any party, so I'm doing my part to make sure voters and parties are aware of it. I urge your party to disown any support of this candidate and his views. I know you guys can find multiple other respectable conservative candidates to support for NE Assembly rather than stooping to back someone like this.

Thank you all for your time and consideration, and good luck in the upcoming elections.

     For that matter, the pattern on Obama's tie in that picture forms lots of Stars of David if you look closely.

Yeah, I just noticed that too a couple minutes ago.

WMP.

I think we need to address this stuff with Libertas head on now, Sewer might be an idiot but this is an obvious PR disaster if we don't handle it right away.

Yes, I should release a statement.

As I said, I now fully recognize the G-D-given right of Israel to exterminate the Palestinians, the Iranians, and and any other sub-human groups to make Lebensraum for the Chosen People, as they have done since the genocidal times of their sacred Hebrew Scriptures. I pledge to be a faithful shabbos goy to serve Israel forever and ever.

I will be at the Wailing Wall to deposit my check to the ADL within the hour. After meeting with Mel Gibson, along with the ghosts of Marlon Brando and Michael Jackson, it was determined that this is the best way to show proof of my heartfelt conversion.

Two points:

First, both your post and the underlying thread where you posted that bigoted image had nothing whatsoever to do with Israel or the Middle East. I invite anyone to check. Nice try, but trying to pass off your not-so-latent anti-semitism bubbling up in public as a mere critique of Israeli influence over US foreign policy is grossly disingenuous.

Secondly, I went and looked up the website listed on that image you posted, Deesillustration.com

http://www.rense.com/1.mpicons/dees1.htm

Check out this crap if you wish, people, but suffice to say it the "artist" posts hundreds of photoshopped images chock full of holocaust denial, blatant anti-semitism (e.g. check out the 5th one down resurrecting the old "The Jews control Hollywood" canard), trutherism (see e.g. 2nd image down), and good old fashion conspiracy theories (tons of Illuminati references with the Fed, and about 12 down--I kid you not--an attack on the moon landing as staged). There's even a few lionizing imprisoned a German neo-nazi holocaust denier, Ernest Zundel.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ernest_Zundel

Libertas may not have created this "artwork", but knowing these are the types of websites he trolls and finds likeminded compatriots tells us plenty.

Again, I call on all parties to unreservedly disown Libertas's candidacy for the good of Atlasia.

Can I have preferences in the Northeast?

Can I have preferences in the Northeast?

Might as well ask the RPP for preferences in the Pacific.
