My fellow Ocians, I'd like to thank all of you who came out and supported the CPO today. Furthermore, I'd like to congratulate all Ocians who got out and exercised their right to voice their opinion of how this government should be run. As everyone knows, no party was given an out and out majority, meaning that within the next forty-eight hours, a coalition gov't must be formed. As chairman of the CPO, I am officially extending a hand of friendship and cooperation to the LDO, and calling for CPO-LDO coalition government to be formed. Should Mr. Henson and the LDO accept, I will meet immediatley with LDO party leaders to discuss the fine points of what a CPO-LDO govnerment will look like. Again, thank you for your support. The CPO and the Government has heard the voice of the people. We shall honor it and act accordingly. Good night, and God Bless! For Freedom, For Unity, and For the Federation! Kakali Anakelikonu, Chairman of the CPO

Yes, it makes perfect sense to combine Center-Left wing politics (liberals) with Right wing politics (conservatives). Are you completely inept, or just not a good politician?

Now now.. lets not get into yet another fight. I think Mr Kakali has made his decision and suggestion.. why don't we all play nice and wait for Mr Henson to accept/decline. We certainly don't need any accusations being thrown around.. wether they be hinted or blatently, sarcastically, expressed. If you have a problem, suggestion or question, may I suggest a fairly played discussion. Might be more productive than a slagging match.

Frankly, I don't care what Germany did. This is Ocia, and we don't make real-world references to politics here. And if you want to make important suggestions, I suggest you apply for citizenship.

Chimrigules is one of the most respectable micronationalists out there, Kolya. Show him some, please.

Well, sir, I only wished to make a point of clarification that such a thing did exist by citing an example from one country. In fact, it has taken place numerous times in many different countries for different reasons, generally as a common solution for when no party or party coalition has a comfortable majority, but also when a coalition based solely on ideology would result in bringing undesired radicals into the government, or when the participating parties intentionally wished to created a united government.
At least, this is the case in countries which have demonstrated an ability to successfully operate and maintain a stable, successful, democratic government for a prolonged period of time. That could be the reason why it seems to be such an unfamiliar concept.
As for the invitation to be a citizen, I must politely refuse. In my all time in micronationalism, I have yet to possess dual citizenship in any micronation other than Antica, and I would prefer that it remain so. I do, however, give thanks for the offer.
Edit: And as for Mr Montague's sentiments, they are appreciated, but they do seem a little exaggerated. All I have accomplished thus far is being around for a little while.
