Poll: A Pledge for 2016

[PsychicTaco115]

Friends, Romans, Escapists, lend me your ears...

As many of us can attest to, the state of the world we live on is basically going coco-bananas. World leaders aren't getting the things done, things that people desperately need. It's time for a change.

This is why, on December 16th, 2012, I am officially nominating myself for President/Dictator of the Escapist for 2016.

Me and my running mate, [user]Lucem712[/user] have a platform that we believe works for all

*Raising taxes on the 1% users with Publisher's Club

*Creating more jobs here on the Escapist, so we can stop sending them off to other sites

*Increased union benefits for the middle-class hamsters that work hard to make this site run

*Supporting the right for same-sex avatars to marry

And various other measures to make our great site the best it can be

My cabinet is formed from the best homeless people professionals here on the site. With your vote, we can make things better for all

Thank you, and God/Gods/Other Bless the Escapist

 

[Esotera]

Sounds like socialism to me...the next thing you'll be offering is free healthcare!

Then again, a tax on the Publisher's Club would be very just, seeing as they enjoy many more benefits than us and get to rub it in our faces all the time. You have my vote.

What will you do about the Threat of the Brovengers?

 

[Euryalus]

I nominate myself as your Treasurer. I will ensure a steady flow of Bitcoins.

You're just going to embezzle money XD

 

[JoJo]

You have my drill. I nominate myself as the head of your Secret Police for the security of the state and the party, I'll make sure our opponents stay in line. My title shall be the Minister of Love ;-)

Edit: I have a flag proposal:

Raising taxes on the 1% users with Publisher's Club!?!

This is bullshit! As a Pub Clubber, I worked hard to inherit all this money from my billionaire parents! You 99 percenters are always whining about how high your taxes are, how you don't have medical treatment, how your toilets are actually just holes in the ground, blah blah blah! You know what? I have problems too! Last month, the cook's son died and she had to take the day off! I had to have the assistant chef make my meal and he forgot to garnish the ham with $100 bills like I like (he used $20's like I was some kind of animal)! Can you even contemplate how hard my life is!?

 

[PsychicTaco115]

What will you do about the Threat of the Brovengers?

We do not negotiate with terrorists

Where am I in your plan!? I so agree on union benefits for hamsters, those fellas can barely keep up sometimes!

We need people like you to be used for the media help spread the word and VOTE!

 

[Rawne1980]

Depends if anyone else joins in the running.

If Eternal Nothingness puts himself up, he gets my vote .... more bizarre threads is always a plus.

 

[Imthatguy]

How are we going to deal with dirty communists political discontents that wish to parlay with the enemy?

 

[Andy Shandy]

What do you plan to do to persuade undecided users, or those like myself who began as more of an Injustice Leaguer but is now someone firmly of a Brovengers persuasion?

EDIT: Also, what are your plans for getting more people to watch one of the best shows on TV, in Community? (that isn't getting nearly as many viewers as it should be)

Armed Injustice League (orphan) stormtroopers at the polling stations tend to do the trick.

 

[Goofguy]

Is anyone else in the running? I thought this was supposed to be a democracy.

Otherwise, feel free to buy my vote because I'm ok with that.

*Supporting the right for same-sex avatars to marry

You're disgusting! Don't you see where this is going to go? First there's gay avatars, then human-robot avatars, then human-dog avatars, it keeps going and going until society collapses upon itself! You're going straight to hell The Basement! May Kross have mercy on your soul....

This goes beyond political/Hero/Villian groups, my friend. Brovenger or Injustice Leaguer, we are all part of the Escapist. It isn't about alliances but voting for who is (and we certainly are) best for the community as a whole.

We shall discuss a Prime Minster of Media position in the cabinet; he or she, with help from the community, will vote for certain programming to be showed at a certain time, so the people can be exposed to new and/or amazing programing.

We have an outreach program to persuade undecided voters

It involves cake...

Cake you say.. what kind of cake? If it's fruit cake then you're wasting your time, fruit cake is the devil's work, and not the cool devil who invented rock music, but the annoying devil who keeps making one of your socks disappear. You should give us TACOS!
