Its that time again,and SVL News its happy to bring you the monthly interviews with the supposed Presidential Candidates.As of now there are 3 known candidates that will run for certain. First we have
Shepherd Of Fire , our current President seeking re-election. He has been playing since day 252 and knows his stuff for certain.He has been in Congress 5 terms and President for 3 terms.He is an active member of the community and did his job correctly this term. We then have 
Lich98 who has been playing since day 221 and he too has experience. He has been in Congress for 4 terms and recently served Lord Mushroom as his Chief of Staff. He thinks he knows enough and is ready to become President himself after serving under other Presidents. Lastly that we know of is 
vitemin who has been here since day 344. He is the newer one of the candidates but is as well an active member of the community. He has been in Congress for 1 term and is currently serving that term right now. Now to the interviews :
Note : More will be added if others choose to run and do the interviews.
1 . What is your view on [the] United States' future ?
Shepherd Of Fire : I think the future looks promising, we handled a couple key issues being GFI and are still ironing out some details, once we sell the excess MU's and the excess companies the debt we currently have due to war bonds will not be an issue.
Lich98 : My first view is making sure that we are on track to repay all of our debts, many of which come due in the next, and following term. I also see us continuing support for our allies out in Europe.
vitemin : I believe that the eUSA deserves to be the kings of North America. However, the Mexican border will remain untouched due to the most recent treaty.
2 . What is your personal opinion on the recent NAP with Russia?
Shepherd Of Fire : I made the NAP, I agree with it, I wish they would have negotiated with us more, but they were strict on what they wanted and we desperately needed the peace due to our gold supply. The enemy is not dumb they can see our org with 2000g in debts.
Lich98 : My opinion on the NAP is ok, I will stand by the NAP if I become President, but I don't see why Russia didn't have to bend to us more, because we had the upper hand, they received a large benefit from it, one that I don't think we should have given them.
vitemin : I believe that if we had been more coordinated, then we would not have that NAP and we would be in control of most of Russia at this point.
3 . Do you see us remaining in Crusaders in the near future?
Shepherd Of Fire : Yes, we are with the Crusaders until death do us part. I love working with the people in PL and LT and have grown quite close with them over the past few weeks.
Lich98 : Yes, I like several of the members in the alliance and see us staying there in the future.
vitemin : Yes, I do believe that join the Crusaders was most beneficial to the United States. Therefore, I will see to it that we remain in it.
4 . What makes your Presidential Cabinet worthy of their position (if you have chosen one)?
Shepherd Of Fire : My cabinet will stay the same except the fact met3 will be my Vice President and Hawkaberi will be my SoD. DKesten is stepping down as SoD and will primarily be handing out supplies for Rangers through GFI.
Lich98 : I have chosen some positions but I still have a few spots that need to be filled. See my cabinet article for more information, it should be coming out around day 697-698
vitemin : My presidential candidate is composed of people that have helped me since the beginning of the game.
5 . Why do you think you should be the next President?
Shepherd Of Fire : I think I did a good job this term so give me another term to go along with it, plus I am Lord Mushroom, vote for me or be executed!!! j/k I love you all <3
Lich98 : I think I should be the next president because I have seen and worked in many administrations. I have a good understanding of the economy of the USA and our local issues. I would love to have a chance at the job, because I've been in many and never gotten to the spot myself. Please vote Lich98 for your next POTUS! 07 America
vitemin : I think that I should be president to show the new players just what you can accomplish by staying in the game.
That is all folks.Please remember to VOTE on election day and get your voice out there !
Take Care,

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.
