I thought we already had one of these, but I can not find it now. With the real elections quickly gaining on us and political fervor at its height, I thought we could use some irreverent political machinations.
So who would like to run for Paizo Community Off-Topic Discussions President? Where do you stand on the issues that are important to Paizoans? Who will you choose as your running mate?

I here by nominate Callous Jack, with Court Fool as veep. Lets get back to the founding fathers' ideal of having the #1 and #2 guys hate each other.
As long as I can keep that llama-loving mutt under close supervision, I'm fine with that. I'll run under a new platform of peace and tolerance (except if you're a lawyer or a kobold). Free drinks for all, Heath is paying!

I do not hate him. He is just a misguided alpaca lover.
Now, Sebastian...
What you got against Alpacas?

I hereby accept my own nomination.
My running mate will be houstonderek.
Together we have formed an aggressive anti-munchkin policy that will include mandatory character performance testing. A sample question might be "What do you think about blink?" This policy will have the double effect of eliminating the rampant munchkinism on the boards, as well as making the OT Forums a nicer place to live, because as it stands this place is infested with munchkins. Eventually we will hold board committee meetings in which Paizo posters will present evidence of Munchkinism in their fellow posters, at which point we will form a bolded list of names to present to Vic and Gary for immediate banning.
Oh, and root beer in the water fountains!

After much soul searching and discussion with my wife, cat and lovely betta fish, I have decided to officially consider whether or not I will announce my bid to become president.
"What makes a man turn neutral? Lust for gold? Power? Or were you just born with a heart full of neutrality?"
(This is the second time I got to use this quote recently...)

This kind of fear-mongering must be stopped. I hearby announce the formation of a party for all gamers. The Narrativist-Simulationist-Gamist Party (NSGP) will not discriminate against gamers based on their playing style. Under the leadership of KnightErrantJR we expect to soundly trounce the Anti-Munchkin Party in the next election.

You just say that because you're a Munchkin!
Ladies and gentlemen, the Munchkin threat is real! They could be your neighbour, your police officer, your parents, even YOU!
Please, if you suspect someone is a munchkin, report them. Otherwise, the munchkins win!

Dude...have you EVER seen ANYONE survive an alpaca attack? I have yet to speak to anyone who has seen or even heard of ANYONE surviving being attacked by one of these vicious creatures.

Yet more proof that the munchkin threat is real! And, who presents it but the supposed non-munchkin, Tarren Dei.
Are you, sir, or have you even been a member of the Lollipop Guild!?

I, CourtFool, Vice-Presidential nominee of the Paizo Community Off-Topic Discussion, and Commander-in-Chief of the Other RPGs forums thereof, do hereby proclaim and declare that hereafter, as heretofore, the war will be prosecuted for the object of practically restoring the constitutional relation between the 3.5 grognards, and 4e WoWers, and the people thereof, in which states that relation is, or may be suspended or disturbed.
That it is my purpose, upon the next meeting of Paizo Community Off-Topic Discussion Congress to again recommend the adoption of a practical measure tendering pecuniary aid to the free acceptance or rejection of all class based RPGs, so called, the people whereof may not then be in rebellion against D&D, and which states may then have voluntarily adopted, or thereafter may voluntarily adopt, immediate, or gradual abolishment of classes within their respective limits; and that the effort to create classes or PrC’s upon this continent, or elsewhere, will be continued.
That on the first day of January in the year of our Lord, two thousand and nine, all classes within any state, or designated part of a state, the people whereof thenceforward, and forever free of such class; and the executive government of the Paizo Community Off-Topic Discussion [including the military and naval authority thereof] will, during the continuance in office of the present incumbents, recognize [and maintain the freedom from] such classes, as being point based, and will do no act or acts to re-enact classes such persons, or any of them, in any efforts they may make for their actual point-basedness.

After much soul searching and deliberation I have decided to announce my candidacy for the OTD presidency, I will be running on an anti-family platform. With emphasis on mandatory gay marraige for every citizen. I have also voted for the release of every major convict in the continental united states while at the same time pushing to raise taxes on the poor while cutting taxes for the special interests to which I am beholden. I am a also a flip-flopper on key issues and will change any answer given for political expediency alone. I plan on staying in office for as long as possible while appointing judges who legislate from the bench and consider the constitution inherently flawed.
My name is LastKnightLeft, and I approved this message.

How dare you sir, might I remind you that as the founder of her own perfume line she has actual executive experience, not just some howdedoodie talker in washington.
