 This can't be...
*takes a golden pen and microscoop*
*takes a look at the inscription and carefully writes it down*
"The holder of this pen,by using this ink contained herein,affirms that he or she has a piece of property of President Shade and has faith in the rational decision-making power of President Shade."
 I almost thought the maker of these pens inscripted a wrong text.

They do say that the universe is moving towards chaos, and away from order. Entropy, or somesuch. Explosions are a nice example of natural processes which cause chaos.

the problem with explosions is that if it happens to ppl with no real status yet they are forgotten easily...doesn't matter what they want to do in the future only what they are at the moment.
(eg if the president explodes ppl will remember,if a candidate for the presidential job explodes it will be forgotten after a few days   )

Are you saying if someone shot Clinton when he was running for President, before he became President, nobody would know who he was? Naaahhhh....

Why'd I say shot? That's not an explosion. Replace "shot Clinton" with "shot Clinton with a RPG"

Although if someone had offed Dubya before the election, I'm sure we'd all be complaining about how Al Gore stole the election from Ralph Nader. Or something.
Edit: I'm going to stop carrying on a conversation with myself now.

Hmmm... I had better be extra-cautious this weekend then...
It would not do to explode *before* becoming President!
OR afterwards, for that matter. I shall have to consider some sort of Preatorian Guards. Come to think of it, where did I put my Kevlar bodysuit?

I'm training a Secret Service, composed of Veteran Warriors. They're being trained to throw Axes at anyone that looks threatening.

All this talk of exploding ppl, and I'm the one competing with our last (and current) President. 
Nah. Surely he wouldn't do something as blatant as that.

And we do not have a propaganda minister!

That's the sort of thing the MSS would handle, if it existed. As it stands now, I'm not sure whether the foreign minister or military advisor are in charge of bribing (propaganda printed on thousand dollar bills, eh?) cities...

The foreign civs think we're evil. They're out to get us. I don't think we'll be able to convince them otherwise, so we'll just have to prove them right by conquering them.

OK! that is correct about the rival civs in the game, I will do that and all foreign ministers will, but we still need a offical advertiser for this game in other forums, for more members.
What do you think?

don't worry if you don't nominate yourself for a job you can live the easy life of a citizen and vote on the polls the cabinet posts.

Welcome timmy2tone69.
Having no idea what you're doing makes you a model Citizen of the United Minds of Apolyton. Just read the threads often, vote in the polls, and chime in with your opinion when the mood strikes. After that, it's just a question of how much involvement you want.
Welcome too to atawa!
