The Insidious Soliloquy of GoTJ:
Revolution and change are constant. Nothing will stay the same, forever. Why should this game be any different?
I do one thing, well; I improvise. It takes up most of my time.
Although, "Improviser," isn't a prestigious title; It's an important one.
Every year it stays the same. Everybody changes to suit the establisment.
Everyone sucks up for the power and fame. (I may have, even gotten something on my nose.) Through the worst we still march into hell.
Beyond the walls of the top 5, tramps wander about begging for a handouts. Many of them are men and women that went out on a journey, to find their purpose, but they will never return.
Many have fallen victim to the game. Millions are walking around with guns in their hands. They are directionless; with memories of combat in their heads.
A Social Introspection:
(http://syntheism.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/introspection21.jpg)
It's perfectly natural, and a well known fact, that we are afraid of change. When a stranger comes along and criticizes our beliefs, we will be offended.
Every great culture or human order of any significance, has had a polar ideology or mythos, which furnishes it's emotional and supernatural foundation for that particular order.
Now, on introspect; On what is our culture based?
A. Assuming that our culture is based on an eReligion;
This is simple. We change the parties to churches. We provide "Religious Services" We offer converts, rather than cabinet positions etc..
B. Assuming that our culture is based on Credit Cards and Gold Prices;
This would be fine with Plato. If you want to save eRepupublik, like so many have professed to doing, this is one is close to Plato's heart. We encourage missions and tournaments. We build infrastructure that is deigned to make people spend their gold.
C. Assuming that a culture is based on the hatred of it's leaders;
We polarize the nation into the disenfranchised and the elites. An attempt to change something is generally associated with one alignment or the other. Ajay and Pfeiffer are good examples of this. Periodically, it's important to introduce a new villain. But, the plot remains the same.
D. Assuming that a culture is based on community;
This is good, if you've played for a while. But, if you haven't it's intimidating. We should build a network of citizen operatives that go out and deliver important updates and short speeches to every citizen.
E. Assuming that we promote a bogus Oligarchy;
Everyone will follow the train of fools. You should fight, drink and be merry, because someone else will dictate your decisions.
The only thing you have to fear is the future. The only, rational, fear is that there may not be a future.
The Boss Fight, AKA PotUS:
I've been playing this videogame for over two years;
I've found the Secret Passages onto the Forum.
I found the warp whistle that led me to IRC.
Then, I fought my way through 7 levels of bureaucracy.
Now, I'm trying the boss Battle.

I must choose my weapons carefully;
I must have Thick Skin. (If I'm going to be a, true, public servant.)
I must have courtesy and (professionalism; on the side, maybe.)
I must be active and do something to show that I was active.
I must choose a cabinet, which would attempt some of these ideas, or associate themselves with a revolutionary; such as myself. I don't plan to accomplish everything in one day. I want to demonstrate some concepts and experience the boss fight.
Finally; Me bragging:
