Secretary of Housing and Urban development Jimmy McMillian

Way to pick the spot with only one line...

Hmm.. I'd like to join but will have to think of a character and position.  State or Defense would be interesting.. decisions, decisions.

It's basically like real-life politics. You sign up as a cabinet or congressman and you fulfill the duties of that position.

Ok...I get that part, so do we just have cabinet meetings and stuff on the forum--do we try to develop a cohesive administration policy?  Or do we just kind of do our own thing?  Also, do you give us situations that we must react to (in the form of news updates) or are we supppose to react to real-life events?

I know what we're suppose to do...but how will we do it?
