Mr. Weissmüller, you appear to be a liberal fooling people into thinking you are a independent to get more votes. This is an affront to all conservadores! The liberals accomplished nothing but war a economic stagnation, but under Presidente Romano and the conservadores Chile has become a powerful economic force, capable of defending itself. This in itself is proof of the superiority of conservative politics.

-Armando de Vasces

First of all, I too admire President Romano for his economic policy. However, I very much disagree with his unwillingness to do reforms. If he had backed Weighted Wealth, the Conservatives would have voted for it, and the Middle Class would be emancipated for this election. I don't think there's anything superior with Conservatism, neither do I think the Liberals are superior. The Liberals were the one establishing Chile as a democracy, but in the end Badajoz and Zapeda tried to coup the State due to their paranoia over the Reactionaries. That coup was resisted by everyone in Chile: Nationalists, Conservatives, Liberals and Independents. And I can assure you, I am not a Liberal. I have several times voted against the Liberals, but I do share their views on a number of issues. I am a Chilean worried about how this partisanship and animosity between the different groups are destroying our nation. We don't get the best government if we have just a Liberal government, a Conservative government, a Nationalist government or a Traditionalist government. We need a government with the best possible people, no matter their political color.

((Who are we allied with? Who do we have less the 40 relations with in South America? Who do we have over 100 relations within South America? What wars are going on involving South America? What is our score, and rank, and what is the score and rank of nations between us and gain/losing Great-Powerage?))

Telling your our score is a little too gamey for my tastes, but we're right on the border of being a secondary power. We're allied with Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, and Venezula. There are no wars in South America except the Franco-British War. We have bad relations with Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia, the Dutch, the French, and the British. We have good relations with our allies. The secondary powers are: Wurttemberg, Spain, Bavaria, Portugal, Italy, Sweden, Mexico, and Brazil.

((I'm confused, how do we choose the coalition candidate again?))

[Seek75]

((Just choose who you'd want to be the presidential candidate in case a coalition occurs. Since you're running, you'd probably want to vote for yourself as coalition candidate.))

[Red Cesar]

((Already voted, but thanks.

What I ment, was how do is it decided which party leads the coalition. By how many votes they received? ))

((The coalition candidate votes determines who will lead the coalition))

[thekinguter]

Party: Liberales
Candidate: Weissmuller, preferably Andonie
Coalition: Weissmuller only.The conservadores have proved to be quite the egocentric type..
Coailtion Candidate: Weissmuller.

Liberales, we can get this country back on track again! Let¿s go for free trade and freedom of the press.

[ThunderHawk3]

((Already voted, but thanks.

What I ment, was how do is it decided which party leads the coalition. By how many votes they received? ))

As I sort of hoped we had established by now, if two parties both vote to form a coalition with each other, I combine their coalition candidate votes, and the candidate with the most coalition candidate votes becomes the candidate of the combined parties. It's first past the post.

[Red Cesar]

((Alright, thought that was the method, just wanted it confirmed. Thanks.))
