Human beings are animals, my wife is a human being, and we are expecting our first child this year. So I must admit the veracity of this claim. I have regular sex with a human female animal. And it's fantastic, I highly recommend you try it someday. (edit: but not with mine.)

Well, time to go make my bid official.

Candidate Declaration: infinite, Independent
Candidate Declaration: Rockpuck, Libertarian
Candidate Declaration: whatukno, Reform


Some realy good candidates here. I am sure there is going to be more! This is going to be a great race

I had a question about this process actually. When asked about our VP and cabinet, are we choosing our fellow ATS members, or are we nominating "real life" names, like Al Gore and such?

Can I choose Microsoft Sam as my running mate? He would be the first non living running mate ever

(wait he doesnt like me too much)

We choose another member.

If we could choose computer programs, I'd choose Eliza. She'd be great at Press Conferences. I'd never have to worry about her saying something stupid or getting me in trouble!

Firefox doesn't seem to like the form. Why won't it load?

Howdy friend. I had the same problem. You need to first log into PTS, then it will load the page. It's a small glitch in the authentication process.

Well since it seems that the independent option is now available it seems that I'll be leaving the Reform party to strike off on my own.

Cool. Good luck, Cyberdude. I'm sticking with the Reform Party, because I do actually believe in our platform.

Declaration page still isn't working for me.....

How long do we have to officially declare?

You have to log into PTS first, make sure cookies are enabled, THEN visit the link.

Hey, I was wondering that I could make a site with one of my campaign members as long as I don't take any content from ATS. Can I do that? If I violate no copyright infringement laws?

I'm pretty sure you can Mav.

Considering thelibra has one.

So when are we going to be able to place the banner adds up for our campaigns? I got mine all ready and Im stoked to be able to put it up for all to see.

Just thought I'd post a list of all the current candidates whom have
stated their platforms and officially put there bid in for candidacy.

The world isn't ready for a hero, or not even that - not ready for someone who can bring America back from the dead.

The members on this forum may, and a few other forums, but that's only a few thousand - and as much as it's a shame to admit most people don't even see the failings of America (except the war, which they still don't even understand).

And whether or not you like it, your society, and many others are based around not discriminating, and not offending - and those two factors weaken a country, and make it impossible for it to regain any form of credibility.

I believe America won't find the suitable President that can bring America back to its former pre-1960 glory; and therefore, I think America will just be absorbed by its neighbours.
