NO
That would take some real thought...something Texans ain't good at. 
But seriously, you already have a bunch of plays try to coordinate their actions for the common good. It's hard to stay on the same page. You have the Foreign, Trade, and Military Advisor all deciding our intelligence needs. Throwing in a 4th will not improve efficiency in goverment.
Or like my Father-in-Law would say, "it ain't right!!!".

just saying no , makes no point what so ever , maybe you want to make the same error that Texas did , ...
and be part of a bigger nation , .... that is to lose the complete independce , ...

You have no idea what your talking about and I'll dismiss your post as complete ignorance.
And that's all I have to say on the issue!!

It's simple. We don't need an Intelligence Minister because that is a function easily handled by the Foreign Minister.

lmtoops, you have one important thing to learn about the forum here.
Never argue with Panag, it will get you nowhere.

hi ,
Mr. President , ....  , that is what politics is all about , ...
yes , its true , sometimes it goes nowhere , but that is because the topic is asking to go no-where , ...
so , in short , sometimes the powers that be , those elected official's and there campaign "voluteers" , decide that in the intrest of the great banana ,
it is needed for the survival of the state to go no-where , ...
have a nice day

Here is the thing...
Unless we are spending 1-3 K gold-a-turn on espionoge, the foreign minister should be able to handle it.
We will need to develop an intelligence agency first for the position to make sense. If the forign minister needs help at that time, it should be the positions perogritive to ask for it and expect it.
