ENDORSED BY
MINISTER OF IMMIGRATION ASTRACARN
MINISTER OF DEFENSE ERASMOGNOME
VF CITIZEN RANDOMNESS

For those of you who don't know me, I'm Aquilanum, I've been on NS for two years, and I moved here about a month ago. In my short time here, I've gained a few titles: Deputy Minister of Defense, Recruiter, and the moron who made you all use Roman numerals in the Battle of the Citizens. If it isn't too much trouble, I'm highly interested in adding another badge to my resume by dropping the "Deputy" and assuming the role of the Versutian Federation Minister of Defense, so that I may continue the excellent work started by former MoD and current MoFA race front-runner ErasmoGnome.

.Experience.

     First things first, I suppose I'll point out the obvious: right now, I'm the VF's Deputy Minister of Defense and one of the few people here with access to every private forum (meaning the transition will be completely seamless). Since receiving the job, I've worked with Erasmo in several areas, offering advice or collaborating with him on military organization, education, immigration, and intelligence. I'm the one behind our private defense subforum; before I spoke up, all military discussions were open for the world to see -- all business had to be conducted via telegram to ensure secrecy, which limited our ability to collaborate on intel. Today, information flows freely between top military officials, who can now communicate on a group, rather than individual basis about sensitive matters.

.Modernization.

     We've established that I have the experience to head the Ministry of Defense, but that's not all I hope to bring to the table. From the day I arrived here and read up on the VF's defense structure, I've wanted to share my experience with VF military employees. How? By developing and personally running a solid training program.

     Take my word for it, members of the military can use all the refinement they can get; that's why I plan to arm them with knowledge and firsthand practice in preparation for a day when our forces will be needed.

.My Time in the VF.

     This really is a great place, although there's plenty of room for organization of the regional government. My favorite aspect of the VF is that it is an incredibly open and accepting community; within two days here, I rose to Deputy MoD.

     I'd love to be running for Minister of Immigration right now, but I'm highly impressed with the job Astracarn has done (i.e. I'm both fully content with the status quo there and would have a ridiculously tight race) and know there's a big gap to fill in the MoD. Still, the same talents apply; determination, hard work, and integration of new members are important in both positions.

.Free Brownies.

     Remember, a vote for Aquilanum is a vote for rich, delicious, piping hot, chocolatey, soft, mouth-watering brownies. Some may call it "bribery"; but I call it... sorry, can't think of what I call it, my mind's too busy fantasizing about free brownies. Mmmmm...

Aquilanum has my full support come June 2nd, and in the future as well. He has been everything I could have hoped to have in a deputy and more, bringing experience, activity, and initiative to the position that I had only wished for previously. Quite a few of the projects and tweaks to what we have built have been a direct result of his suggestion. For instance, the institution of a hidden subboard for Defense activities was entirely his idea, and one that has worked beautifully in its implementation.

He is more than qualified to become Minister of Defense, and I give him my full support and my vote.

*grumble* But then that's one less brownie for me...

Er, I mean... sure! Whatever helps me buy your vote! :D

Heck, I'll consider lacing a batch with pot if it means increased popularity among the VF's marijuana legalization special interest groups. Apparently, that's actually a thing.

Erm, yeah, that has happened at my school before... We just call it the "special brownie" incident.

Thank you to all who have voted for me. As for those who didn't vote for me: I will hunt you down, and I will never, never give any brownies to you.

JKJKLOL. Brownies for all!

(You have no idea how hungry I got while searching for all of those... *drools*)
