My Views? Who am I to comment...
Yes i was once running for president and if i may say so I ran a hell of a campaign. There is not one person running, there never is and in eRepublik there has to be a Democracy. This is a fault in itself. Despite many people, including myself sometimes, believe Democracy is the best type of politics available it would be idiotic to say that it is the only type of politics out there. We have Dictatorships, Monarchy, Communist, Republics and Religeous run states (a form of Theocracy).
This is one of eRepubliks major mistakes. I believe a politics module would be great to put in place but I guess very hard to make due how hard it is change different governments such as military dictatorships.
Now onto the candidates for Ireland
Note: I don't mean to offend but if i do, you'll get over it. Politics isn't meant to be all pretty and nice, so I won't be. Kapeech?
Moomoohead : Moomoo, is a quiet person. I havn't seen many of his actions as he hasn't been a minister of anything but have been in personal contact with him a few times and he seems like a nice guy. Although he has entered a partnership with the party I founded for the election. I havn't seen much publically wise which is a main thing I look for in a president. Myself I don't like some of the ideals especially the IFP-Saoirse cabinet positions despite being in Saoirse myself. I feel he definatly needs more expierience to become President, such as apply for a cabinet position.
Appleman : Appleman is one of those silent workers. He has been a minister of finance various times, of which he did very well, and a general nice guy. He has been overlooked for this term because of the campaign goals, what people fail to see is that all the other candidates had the same, including myself. The National Goals will not work properly until the new module. Why hasn't Appleman written a lot of this for relection is a question a few people are asking. The simple thing is that he is busy running the country!!! He does deserve a new term so make sure you take AM into account too.
Edana Savage : Edana has always been a nice person and a friend of mine. As the MoNC you was was quite good and has been doing good as the current minister of education. From what I have seen her running partner is well chosen and expierienced and also a person I respect. I believe she could make a difference to Ireland but I also feel mabye like myself she may need a little more expierience to be the president.
There is a lot of saying there is a Ogliarchy in Ireland, meaning Ireland is run by a small group of elites. How can this be in Ireland? It is not the same people and parties every time, its the people who have the best qualifications.
How can you get qualifications if you can't get the job?
Well, how I got it was by putting in a application and becoming a co-minister. I was a minister while in Saoirse when there was no other ministers from Saoirse. I don't consider myself one of the best citizens in Ireland as there is many people I admire and look up to. I certainly wouldn't put it as a Ogliarchy...
In eRepublik its only a Ogliarchy if you make it on...
Like in life, don't let the opportunities pass you. If you don't apply you won't get it.

And happy new year!
You too Daniel 😉
national goals ought to be discounted, they don't really mean much.
Most candidates dont use them or just set them as the same as their peers 😁
Don't underestimate me, Niall. 😉 Thank you for the kind words. I like you too. 🙂 And I have a lot of respect for you.
Good luck to the other candidates. 🙂
How could there be a small group of elites? Ireland itself is a small group 😕
Good luck to all.
your lack of any support towards moo is evident and unfortunate.
you are willing to bash moo for quietness yet the current incumbunt has hardly been shouting from the rooftops
I'm not bashing him for "quietness." I'm saying that because he is unknown, hasn't held a cabinet position and his goals arn't that good.
Because of that he isn't my favourite candidate.
Nothing personal...
sure you are. you havent one positive word in his section unlike both others despite clearly favoring one(within your rights), theres not your favorite and theres bashing.
Well I need to be given something positive then I will write 😉
Well said Niall regarding Oligarchy. I am tried of this word. It is simply propaganda and nothing else.
"Appleman is one of those silent workers"
well you're willing to take this as a positive why not for moo?
Your articles are always a great read. While we may not have an oligarchy it is quite funny to see the reactions of some people when the word is used. I think many people have forgotten we are supposed to have fun on here and that includes moo.
One more thing its a bit hard to get qualifications or a job when people don't respond to you.
Because Saoirse Press Office. We can see many of the results from Applemans "Quiet Working," in the Finance sector of Ireland which has done a great job consecutivly.
Well Kavrocks, i can't help with that. It down to the ministers themselves.
so quiet working he cant even release an article.
but its ok he's working 24/7 for the country.
Vote MooMoohead on the 5th!
Good Article
And Biffo, hes released 7 since he won his presidency
but none to say he is re-running gleb.
and thats compared to 13 from a disinterested patton the month before for your info gleb...we can all use stats🙂
How can you say he was disinterested?
You have to take in mind the fact that it was IMPOSSIBLE for him to run.
lol
We could have amended the constitution ha
This isn't a partisan argument at all...
What stake does Niall have in this to intentionally bad mouth someone??
Seems as if we will continue to divide the small country we have even further... I can understand what he is saying, but I felt the same way about Patton to be honest (no offense.) How can you vote for someone you barely hear from, have read anything from, talked to until the elections are nearing? This is nothing against moo, I really don't know enough about him to make an opinion, but I think thats the point.
Nice artcle but i will say you should have found something nice to say about each candidates.
Being nice isn't my area 😛
You have to take in mind the fact that it was IMPOSSIBLE for him to run.
my point exatly gleb and one im fully aware of.
Can't comment but trust Niall.
[removed]
i don't support Apple at all, he has not been posting articles like patton did, he put very high goals which everyone knows where impossible to do. so i support Moo (as IFP memeber) or Edana (has a great friend)
One thing that concerns me is the lack of activity in the University of Ireland.
I will note that there is a government type that was invented by the Greeks, lovely people invented them all XD, that the society and country is run by a group of intellectuals. Probably the best and most effective ever conceived by man.
Plutocracy.
Oh Niall H? where are all teh Candidates?
Niall, thank you for your support! Sometimes it's hard to talk about one's self. I count on the encouraging words of Great Irish citizens like yourself!
@John : *coughs* Isn't Moo doing the same setting the GDP to 45 % lol? Actually if you havn't noticed working as a President is actually a tough job and Appleman had worked maybe silently but he still had the Country running in one piece!
Appleman hasnt put out enough state of the nation style reports to show people what he is doing and how his goals are developing. What we have he is failure to communicate. Vote Edana, purely because we know she will be committed and informative unlike the other two recluses on show.
