: : Brasilien.. Jag tycker att presidenten måste ha
: : ett parti bakom sig, för demokratins skull...
: : Rösta på Ekan.. För demokratin..
: The reasons to vote for Fernando are really quite obvious. The power of a man who manages to gather so many votes without even making much of a campaign must possess extraordinary powers. Now every Ladonian must recognize that this is the truly creative way to win an election.
: Neither do Fernando invent a political party which must be considered another weak copy of a system we are trying to leave.
: We are not in it for democracy, this cannot be stated enough!
: The eonatic order is something else. It is not easy, it surely is still to be given shape (as opposed to "constructed") but Rome wasn´t built in one day...
: The eonacy is not intended to be an Utopia. It is real and not a romantic idea of love, peace and understanding.
: Although totally based on that. That is why we should carefully consider the fact that a man can collect so many votes without parties or campaigns.
: Real ladonians vote for Fernando.
Now I don't really understand what you mean.. It seems, that you want a very powerful man to rule the country?? Why vote for a man who you don't even now who it is, and what he stands for?
And why not make it a REAL country, based on love, peace and understanding?
But I agree. Ther must be something extraordinary about a man who collects that many votes, without doing anything.. But what if that is all he's got?? Maybe he is totally incompetent.. What do we do then??
Vote for Ekan..
