1972 Gameplay thread

[Dancing with Myself]

This is where the gameplay is. The events happen the same as in RL.

Here are the rules:

1. You come up with the speeches, ads and all that.

2. Any assassination attempts or something in that nature must be approved by me in advance. Same goes for endorsements. Any wild and wacky stuff is not approved

3. Once most of the players go for the round, i will put up polling.


You guys can start, but be aware tmthforu94 won't be on for a week.
