southsider2k5 Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 I would like to take a second to announce that I will not be seeking any office during this Soxtalk Election cycle. My simultaneous roles as both father/husband, head of the Bilderbergs, and Dictator for Life at Soxtalk.com do not allow me the time to seek the office of the Presidency at this time. I will however be studying the election closely and do plan to offer an endorsement as long there are worthy canditates. Thank you and good luck, and may God bless Soxtalk.

Will we submit questions to a third party moderator? I hadn't figured that out yet, but I was thinking of maybe setting up the general rules, and then having someone NOT running actually pick some topics, plus each candidate picks one. I was going to pick energy policy, but I am sure others might have as well.

Perhaps you can help me out with setting up the debates. I can set something up that won't require much moderation, but I'd want someone not running to be the point person and choose the topics (from candidate suggestions and/or your own ideas).

I like to talk politics, but I can't play the necessary games. So, I'd rather be a constituent to a person that actually listens to my opinions and weighs it in with the others, so there's no Tyranny of Soxy.
