The end of the month, the end of my political career, for now.
I have decided not to run for Presidency based on many factors, RL the main one of the them.
You know, people'd always ask 'Why is Jesse Jackson running for the White House?' They never seen the house I'm running from.
~~~ Jesse Jackson
It has been a tough month for the USA and an even tougher month for me and my staff.
The failure of the White House and Congress to seriously address the nation's fiscal situation is certain to broaden the belief among many voters that the U.S. political system is broken.
~~~ Ron Fournier
We watched as our wonderful country went from a superpower controlling many foreign lands, and became a country that couldn't even win one war.
The White House looked into a plan that would allow illegal immigrants to stay in the United States. The plan called for a million Mexicans to marry a million of our ugliest citizens.
~~~ Dennis Miller
I hope the future is much brighter for the USA, I hope the next POTUS figures out a way to change this madness.
Learn from the past, set vivid, detailed goals for the future, and live in the only moment of time over which you have any control: now.
~~~ Denis Waitley
I could sit here and blame many factors, but I will not. I won't take the blame myself, either. Each and every one of you can look at the facts and decide for themselves.
The country cannot afford amateur hour in the White House.
~~~ Donald Rumsfeld
I would like to take this opportunity to thank those that have helped us in our time of need. Our Alliances (which have since broke up [and for good reason]), Jackist (Who donated some Gold to the USA when he quit the game), My Cabinet (SoS - Sahand Who worked very hard to regain confidence from our allies, and worked almost 24/7 to make us better. SoD - Uncle who left the USA for green pastures after fighting daily to win back [at least] one region. SoM Hunno who wrote wonderful articles and knows the ins and outs of diplomacy and Chasely who advised the USA until his departure to Pakistan).
American families be warned, if the White House doesn't send your jobs overseas, they'll send your kids.
~~~ Joe Baca
I would also like to Thank my MU Supreme Beings of Leisure and its members for being a constant [emotional] support throughout my term.
A piece of spaghetti or a military unit can only be led from the front end.
~~~ George S. Patton
I would like to thank all the Congress Members that tried to Impeach me, as if that would solve the Lithuanian problem. I thank the Members that did not allow that to happen even more.
The genius of impeachment lay in the fact that it could punish the man without punishing the office.
~~~ Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr.

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.
"E-Sim is one of the most unique browser games out there"
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.
