At his request, I've opened this thread for reconfirmation of Ben Constine's position as Secretary of External Affairs. Please discuss the merits of the nominee here.

There are a lot of disagreements between me and Ben, but no one else wants to do this damn job.

Meh, I'll vote aye, but I don't like him anyway Tongue

That isn't true and is also a poor reason to boot.

I'm also the most qualified, most active, SoEA possible.  I've worked with Senators and Presidents closely on crafting foreign policy, making it remotely relevant in Atlasia for the first time in years.  That is my case for being re-confirmed.

Questions?

Guys, I am heading to DC this weekend to see my girlfriend so it is unlikely I will be online. I just want to request that the PPT recognizes me as voting AYE for Ben when the time comes. I don't have any questions because I know he'll do a good job as he always has.

Thank you both.  Do any Senators who are less confident in my abilities have any questions?

I'm looking forward a day when more people will be interested in this position, so I wouldn't have to consider confirming smallpox (Ben) over AIDS (no one to run this thing).
