((Well... it seems like a lot has certainly happened. First things first:
DensleyBlair, do you intend to make a new character? I'd hardly call a 46 year old "aged" in any case -- did you forget that you'd created a character and joined the Alliance?
DutchGuy, you can certainly lurk for that long if you like, I guess, although I'd find it awfully boring. Ferdinand will be yours in 1880, but if you change your mind let me know.))
Gentlemen,
I consider Herr von Altmark a personal friend, and I will never forget his authoritative and decisive actions in the recent uprisings, as well as his investigations into the deaths of Chancellor Bern and my cousin. His recent actions may have been a trifle extreme (and thank you, Chancellor Bismarck, for your influence in having Dr. Fellman released), but I believe his heart is good and that he was only doing his best. Furthermore, this talk of "no confidence" is preliminary, as he is responsible to the Conclave, not the Assembly. Only the Conclave may initiate proceedings against him. I certainly will not do so, and would vote against any measure which intended to remove him from power without more justification than his perhaps excessive zeal to pursue justice.
Regarding my financial ministry proposal, I fear I was indeed getting ahead of myself -- I withdraw the portion of my proposal with involves war with Pomerania. Certainly, there shall be time for that later, and I reserve the right to reintroduce the proposal in the future. As for my request to annex Champagne, that remains the cornerstone of my 1854 foreign policy. ((So, keep voting on that one. It is Assembly only as we merely seek to add an additional war goal.))

EDIT: ((Apologies to Michaelangelo -- I had you down as in favor of both. Wouldn't have made a difference anyway.
EtzelHoveri, Hugo Unger is a member of the Assembly, right?))
