Pre Poll Discussion: Administration Approval Polls for Historical Purposes
Hi,

Since I have been bashed for not making enough pre poll discussion threads, and also so that I do not get hammer for trying to launch a smear campaign against Trip (which I would not want to do because I think Trip has been our best leader thus far ), I have decided to see what everyone thinks about:

Approval Rating Polls at the end of each Presidential Administration.

Kind of like how the US does it.

What good would it do:

It would allow us to look back on our past and remember Presidents of long ago. It would allow our Presidents "prestige" and award them for a job well done. And also it would make it exciting for our people to look back and see who the best Presidents were.

So here are the options I was thinking of:

During (insert name here)'s leadership, I was a:

Happy Citizen
Content Citizen
Unhappy Citizen

Suggestions? Comments?

How about:

During (insert name here)'s leadership, I was (a):

*Citizen in a state of perpetual WLTxD
*Happy Citizen
*Content Citizen
*Unhappy citizen
*Resisting citizen
*Pop-rushed citizen

Personally, during Trip's reign, I was a:
Happy Citizen

Good idea, Timeline.

Captain's list looks the best to me, but any will do.

This is a good idea. I like Tassadar5000's ratings the best.

Yes this is a good idea.

For the record, I was, and think I still am, a content citizen.

Does the list really matter? We could poll on the idea itself (which I support) and then choose a list later. That is not the real issue here.

No, the highest (above WLT*D even) should be "High on Bananas".

Ok,

Now that the discussion has died out I suppose the poll can go up.

Since there were absolutely no objections during discussion I think it would be silly to hold a poll on weather to have a poll After all, we are a democracy, not a bureaucracy .

Options used will be:

*Citizen in a state of perpetual We Love The President Day

*Happy Citizen

*Content Citizen

*Unhappy Citizen

*Pop-rushed Citizen
