Hooray! The Banana may yet be thwarted! 
I'll post my agenda (for whatever reason ) after I'm done updating everything.

Summary of my position:
I am an imperialist. I encourage expansion when it would benefit our civ, and not cost us more than it gains us. I believe in science and the acquisition of wealth as the highest priority. I believe in a strong military. I plan to build up infrastructure first, then move on to other options, i.e. culture and a strong military. I like naval and air units too.

He dropped out of all of his races because he said he was going to be too busy. Oh well.

Yeah, sorry guys, but I'm going on a trip in a few weeks so I wouldn't want to drop off in the middle of the term. Maybe I'll run for the next one.

Good platform, but I still voted for the Banana.

Can't let election threads go to page 2.
The Banana is putting up stiff resistance, but I think I can pull through!

Declared by us? Not until we have a firm infrastructure. I want to make sure we can win before getting tangled up in a bunch of wars. The time will come for warfare though, just not in 3000 BC.

The Banana is getting a pretty good number of votes, considering that it a) has never joined, campaigned, or for that matter even posted and b) it does not exist.

I am strongly opposed to the inauguration of the one known as The Banana into any position of power.
So now that I am a heretic of the Apoloton religion, fire away!

Ouch! Trip, the banana is catching up to you!
Lucky for you, it doesn't really exist.
Oh, and I think our would-be President should have something a little more...uh... dignified,.. for his avatar. c'mon, you're representing our country as a dancing queen?

When we get to the modern age, will you act like a modern nation (Very very democratic, very peacful, unless we have a big threat!). Or will you continue to attack in an orgy of expansion!
