Now to begin...
First and foremost, I'd like to thank all of you who voted for me to become elected Party President for the Kangaroos Party. As with most things where you have to get elected, it couldn't have happened without the voters. I extend a hearty thanks to each and every one of you. I do. See, I even left you all a picture showing how thankful I am:
(Above) Everyone loves kittens.. Everyone. Even you.
Yes, I'm very thankful. Now, as a newly elected party president, I think it is my duty to issue a statement regarding my plans. As president, I plan to be a good representative in our community, but my main goal for my term is to help build that community to begin with. I hope to bring the two parties in this country a bit closer, if possible. Why do I think this is important. Well, allow me to elaborate...
Powerful countries are those that have the large populations to maintain rich companies producing resources, produce strong MUs to fight in wars at home and abroad, and create an international presence within the world of Secura. Australia's lacking in that first essential resource: people. Now, that goes to say we can't afford to shun those in our community than might be able to help in their own way. In fact, taking the time to seek redemption and give forgiveness is necessary if you want to make the best and biggest team of allies possible.
If we have a good, active community at home, we will be more attractive to those that might want to join a new country. We can attract a larger population.
In life, it's true that in order to make friends, you have to be a likable person. No one likes you if you're always angry, or always upset, or always in conflict with yourself. Likewise, Australia needs to first be a friend with itself before it starts to make new friends to invite over to its shores, or reefs, or outback, or whatever.
Basically, be likable, easy to work with people and it'll reap rewards. Take a second to earn people's trust and become good allies with them. If someone proves to be no good, then avoid them, but don't start avoiding people for little reasons. Sometimes, even if you disagree with someone, you might be surprised to see that their heart was in the right place all along and that they meant no harm.
(Above) You need to be like this, basically
So yes. I hope you get my point. I want to help make this happen. Now, I should segue into my next point, which is about the Kangaroos Party itself. My first plan of action in the Kangaroos party is to change the name.
Now, listen. I have nothing against those that led the party before me, and I have nothing against the person who chose the name. I'm not doing this out of any sort of spite. I just feel that if we change the name to something more official, we will fit a bit better into the Australian landscape of politics. The party's members will continue to run for congress and whatnot, just under a different, more edgy banner. I still look forward to working with all, if not most, of you in the party.
That will be all for now.

P.S. I lied. That will not be all.
P.P.S. I will not be posting my manifesto series in awhile. I'm currently very busy with my studies and life in general. This time of the year is quite hectic for me. I hope you understand.
P.P.P.S. That will be all now. For reals.

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.
