Ben for President

[Kaine for Senate '18]

Hello all,

I've decided to once again throw myself into contention for Atlasia's Presidency.  This campaign, which will take shape in the coming days, will once again focus on activity and foreign policy.

Any questions?

[Kaine for Senate '18]

As my slogan makes clear, I am running on the dual themes of activity and foreign policy.  I firmly believe that foreign policy can be an important part of Atlasia, if the President is willing to emphasize it.  As President, I will emphasize foreign policy, and try and use the Presidency to achieve what a lowly SoEA cannot: make the damn Senate pay attention

Feel free to rigorously question me

Why do you eat babies

I don't.  Although you once told me they taste delicious

Just for the record, my ticket does not endorse eating baby humans.  Baby cows are okay.

You're such a moderate hero, Ben. Not that it's any news.

You know me too well Kal

It does?  oh my

It does not endorse typos

If I suck up to you can I get a cushy foreign policy job where my aides do all the work, I get all the credit, and somehow my experience is increased, launching me into the national spotlight and making me a contender for the top spot four to eight months from now?

It depends on how much you suck up to me; while I enjoy flattery, I do want to make sure competent people get appointed.

Ladies and Gentleman, I have a Vice President!  He has served Atlasia for years, and I believe that The People will find him more than suitable!

My friends, I have chosen Duke to be my running mate!

[Kaine for Senate '18]

Ladies and Gentleman,

It has always been a dream of mine to serve as a Senator.  Because I desire to continue serving in the Senate, I have decided to drop out of the Presidential race.  I thank you all for your support, and I thank Duke for agreeing to run with me.

That is all
