John Henry Forseman
Federalist - Yakima



John Henry Forseman has served in the USCR military for 25 years, earning a distinguished service medal during the Basin War as well as two purple hearts. Following the war he served as commander of Fort Bridger and as military adviser to President de Souza during his term. He has since retired to his ranch in Yakima, though still provides his experience and expertise to the government when needed.

John believes that what makes a strong nation is how it treats those who are not as well off. He believes in taking care of the elderly, disabled, veterans, and orphans, and that it is the responsibility of the state to provide for the downtrodden. He is strongly against the practice of indentured servitude and promises to do everything in his power to end the practice within the USCR.

Lincoln Warren
Constitutionalist - Arcadia



Lincoln Warren has been a practicioner of law for nearly thirty years, his expertise has been in constitutional law. He has been active in the adminstrations of the previous two presidents. He headed the committee of senators in drafting the first ten amendments, facilitating an easier ratification of the nations new constitution and easing tensions between the parties.

He believes that the USCR should continue to expand its legal code and rely less on pre-War laws and regulations, so that the Republic can stand of its own accord. He strongly believes in a fair and well shaped legal system that can protect the rights of all Cascadian citizens.


Slogan: Standing on our own.

 
Federalist Candidate John Henry Forseman Wins Election in Close Presidential Race



excerpt from Forseman's victory speech:
I just want to say first of all, this has been a humbling experience. Many I think, me included, figured we would win this election by a landslide and yet my opponents dogged me the whole way. Mr Steinbacher caught me up there near the end after starting out the weakest. Well done.

The Cascadian people have proven once again that they care greatly for the future of our nation, and those that showed faith in me today I consider it my sacred duty to justify that faith.

We have a long road ahead. There are poor and starving people in this nation who need our help. It is our solemn duty to provide it. They are our brothers, they are our sisters. And we cannot leave our family to fend for themselves.

I spoke with President West earlier and she congratulated me on this victory, and has promised to back what I have promised. A better Cascadia for all Cascadians. Her work over the last five years have been instrumental for this nation. We now have a constitution of our own, a code of law we can build upon. No Cascadian will be left in the cold. No Cascadian will go hungry. That is the promise of this victory.
