Thewsconia's Campaign (From 3/04 elections)

Feel free to leave any questions, comments or concerns.

The 2nd annual 10000 Islands Senatorial elections are coming up in a few weeks and Thewsconia will be running in them. Let me use this time to let you know a little bit about our nation and campaign.

Thewconia started as a small nation in the final days of 2003 with a population of hardly 8 million. We where immediatley recruited by LoreSong and gladly took her invite to this region. Since that day Thewsconia has grown and prospered in the 10000 Islands. We now support a population of nearly 400 million and a powerhouse of an economy. Our nation is very active in both the region and in TITO. We have recieved battle stars in Anti-Rowling, 5 Percent Nations, Gondor and Islas Norte. Thewsconia is also the current Ambassador to the largest user created region in NationStates, Europe.

Thewsconia's campaign can be sumed up as 10000 Islands "Glorification." By this we mean making 10000 Islands BIGGER, BETTER and STRONGER.

10000 Islands is a great region and to spread the word of this wonderful region we need to become BIGGER. Thewsconia has already started on this part of his platform by recruiting nations whenever possible. Also, I will try and pass legislation to make more possitions on the Dept. of Immigration.

Thewsconia will strive to make sure everyones voice is heard in the 10000 Islands. From the smallest state to the largest empire Thewsconia will make sure your voice is heard in this great region. Still being a somewhat new nation I know how it feels to be just another face in the crowd. By making everyones comments and concerns heard it will help make this region BETTER.

Finally, Thewsconia believes that 10000 Islands needs to become a STRONGER region. Even though TITO is one of the strongest forces in NationStates there is always someone stronger out there who likes to invade other regions. For this reason I believe we need to have more organization in TITO. For Example we could have a chain of command with Grub being the Commander and Chief and then other strong prominent nation as Generals. While these Generals would have no power politicaly, to make sure this region doesn't sway from Democracy, they would give commands on the battlefield helping ensure our effectiveness and secrecy.

Hopefully you like what you see and will support me in the upcoming elections.

We ask that people who are comparing between Thewsconia's candidacy and Texarcana take the time to visit both nations. One big difference you'll see is an almost absence of crime in Texarcana as compared with Thewsconia where crime is rampant !!

Vote for TEXARCANA !!

As the other canidates have brought up, Thewsconia also believes in forming some sort of Non-UN Committee that would help represent those nations. However these nations cannot have to much power and to much information revealed to them for the security of the 1000 Islands. Something along the lines of an advisory council.

Another thing Thewsconia would try to get put into effect if elected is a Civil Governorship of people responsible for keeping people involved in TITO and morale high. For example, Nation X is responsible for all nations A-F and it is his duty to keep in touch with these nations and to contact them immediately incase that they are needed. These would be the Generals that I proposed in my platform but fall more inline with the constitution.

[Grub (Lenlyvit)]

We've thought about ideas very similar to that in the past, but we won't need to use something like that until TITO grows much larger than it is right now. Thanks for the idea, though.

[Bad Infinitum]

I fully support the idea of Generals, as I do for governors of the entire region as opposed to just TITO; I have posted on this earlier. However, I also agree with Grub that TITO is still at that size that it is manageable by only one or two people. Generals would allow Grub to make better strategic decisions without worrying about if the tactics would be carried out effectively. For example, Grub tells the generals "Region Y is in trouble. Move in and endorse Nation N," and the generals pass on "go to the North Pacific, then the South Pacific, then the Rejected Realms, then to Region Y and immediately endorse Nation N."

This is why there's a chain of command in the Army.

[Jesioneka]

This is similar to an idea that Fleeb and I came up with in the "Map" forum. Although it may not be useful now (just as districting may do more harm than good), we should definitely keep these things in mind for the future, perhaps if our region surpasses 1,000 states.

Thewsconia, you have my vote, by the way.

[Thewsconia]

Thank you for your vote Jesioneka. ;D
