The White House

[Хahar 🤔]

Have we ever had referenda (except for amendments) before?

That reminds me. I need to finally spell out the AtlaMinh programme.

There has been one for the same US recognition issue before.

Thought that question, unfortunately, was an up-or-down vote on the least popular of the options, so little was settled.

White House Announces Cabinet Shakeup
September 11, 2008

For Immediate Release

Halfway through his term, President Moderate today announced his intention to relieve Secretary of External Affairs MasterJedi of his cabinet duties and appoint former president and senator Colin Wixted (NLC-PA) to the position.

"I thank MasterJedi for his work as Secretary of External Affairs in helping to craft this administration's foreign policy and leading us toward a final compromise on the issue of United States recognition," the President said in a written statement.  "I expect MasterJedi will continue to work with the administration towards our common goals."

The President has already notified Senate President Pro Tempore Lewis Trondheim of his intention to nominate Colin Wixted to the position.  A smooth confirmation process is expected.

"I look forward to working with former President Wixted in furthering a coherent foreign policy and in crafting the referendum on United States recognition," explained the President, referencing yesterday's announcement to place a referendum on the October 2008 federal ballot.

Did Jedi step down, was it mutual, or was it solely your decision Moderate?

     If it's the third option, the RPP will not allow this act of aggression to go unanswered.

The Cabinet serves at the pleasure of the President.

     Though that doesn't mean that the people have to be happy about the president's decisions in regards to the cabinet.

I don't see why you would be unhappy?

     You have a point actually. Now we're free to have MasterJedi run for another office. Like President.

Speaking of, I'll be making an announcement by the end of the week as to whether or not I will seek re-election to the office of President.

I encourage those with opinions and preferences to my decision make them known either publicly or by private message.

[HappyWarrior]

Should you run for reelection president Moderate I will give you my wholehearted endorsement and support.

[Associate Justice PiT]

     I hope that you don't run for re-election. If you do, the RPP will have no choice but to mount a campaign so ferocious that will make Bush '88 look clean & positive by comparison.

[Kaine for Senate '18]

Should you run for reelection president Moderate I will give you my wholehearted endorsement and support.

[Colin]

I thank the President for his nomination and I hope to serve in the office to the best of my abilities. I hope to remain active and engaged in all my activities.

Man.  Third time's the charm with these things, right?
