I second the nomination of Smid, the PO of a convention should be a person with a personal vendetta against the largest party in Atlasia. I look forward to getting beyond the grudges, but certainly do not wish to give Afleitch the PO position.
Note, I do not request that the PO even been someone ideologically compatiable, or even someone I get along with. I was perfectly fine with Verily. I only request, and I assume most other delegates from party do as well, that the PO be someone not named Lewis, Al, or Afleitch
I do think you need to let what goes on outside of this Convention remain wholly separate from what goes on in here. As far as the Convention is concerned there are no parties or regions among participants. It is just those trying to build the best proposal for a new Atlasia. Choose someone who will be effective, calm, and efficient. Someone with good ideas.
I want to thank you and Marokai for your confidence. After that glowing commendation I will accept your nomination for presiding officer of the Convention.
