I still would like to see some extremism in parties ideals. Currently, even the Hawks aren't extremists. In the warmonger- builder slider, parties are like this :
------H-----I----D---------
The window between Imperialists and DIA is very small, I wonder how you can fit an "Independent" party inside.

The Hawks, Imperialists, and some other party whose name I forgot all joined together into the UFC. While they may say that they're seperate parties, have you noticed that it's the UFC that runs candidates? There are really two parties: right-wing UFC and left-wing DIA.

the UFC was formed because Hawks were way to disorganized. We're workig on organizing ourselves now, we elected a chairman and everything.

the UFC was a temporary solution, IMHO.

I think that Ninot should have staid in the Foreign Ministry, and the Uber is great for a War Minister. Having a right-wing extremist War Minister and a left-wing extremist Foreign Minister is not only beneficial to all, but it's like real life. I should know; the dad of a friend of mine is a high-ranking State Department guy.

I think we need more parties. That is the best way to take care of partisan politics.

I don't believe in 2 party system; it causes more problems than it solves. Partisan politics need to be put aside, and we need to work on what is truly best for our nation, looking at the long term.

Also, IRL, there is an independent party. They are also independent candidates, some are members of the independent party, some are not.

this will go the way of the other parties that tried the idea: you will have one (maybe two) members and then you will fade away...
