This is a series dedicated during the presidential election times when multiple strong citizens are running for president of the United States. Today, I am interviewing
Khaled Ibrahim , who is a promising candidate for becoming the president of the United States.
Hello,
Khaled Ibrahim , I am going to ask you a few questions regarding your candidacy for president of the United States, is that okay?
Yeah, sure.
1) Alright, first off, what will you do regarding our foreign affairs, are you leaning toward joining ALPHA, TM, or creating our own alliance?
Definately towards creating our own alliance.
2) Next, what is your opinion on Russia still renting our regions even though the rent is surely not larger than what we could be making if we had those regions?
Well what we have going now with Russia is good. I definately want to negotiate with Russia for the regions, possibly by offering to help them get a high resource region elsewhere, but regaining these regions will cause short term problems for businessmen because it will force wages to go up.
3) Who would you consider our top allies to be?
Sweden, France, and the UK.
4) What will be your main goal in your term that you might serve in the upcoming month?
Creating an alliance that will be stronger, and be more united than VETO and an alliance where all members will be equal.
5) Who do you feel is our biggest threat at the moment?
Canada is the only nation around us who is openly hostile and their president libertines dislikes us intensely. So it is possible we could end up going to war with them.
6) Are you happy with the current state of the economy?
Yes, the economy is slowly improving but it can do better and I will do my best to improve it.
7) What do you think about your current competition, are they going to pose a challenge to you?
Of course every candidate will be a challenge.
8) Are you excited for the debate?
Absolutely, I look forward to presenting my ideas to the people and competing against my fellow candidates.
9) What do you believe is your biggest strength?
My work ethic along with my passion for foreign affairs.
10) What do you believe is your biggest weakness?
I often get too wrapped up and single-minded in pursuit of my goals; I recognize this, and to help compensate for it I have assembled an all-star cabinet from diverse communities within e-sim. Their distinct viewpoints will (hopefully) keep me from focusing too intently on any one thing I plan to do this month.
11) Cake or pie?
Cake definitely.
Thank you for answering these questions in this interview, I wish you the best of luck in the election!

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
Take part in numerous events for the E-Sim community.
