I vote for Corona in the ongoing Prime Minister election.

CFJ: "In the message quoted below, Corona gave eir 'explicit or reasonably 
implied consent', as required by Rule 1006, to be made the holder of Prime 
Minister."

(Not that I actually expect enough votes for this to arise, but it would be 
hilarious if it did.)

I will note that I'm trying to get a consensus for some solution to our
present problems. [1] I've made clear my thoughts on what I think that
solution should be, regarding one particular issue, but I'll respect the
consensus process. No one else has commented though. So please, come
comment and tell us what kind of solution you want. I'm really not sure
what solutions are popular and rightly guided at the moment, so it's hard
to know what I _should_ support. At least I'm trying to figure out what
Agorans want.

Also, my apologies for calling our problems a crisis. That was perhaps
somewhat hyperbolic. I do think we have serious problems though, because
several players have commented that they're not enjoying a major part of
gameplay. I want to solve that problem. I want players to enjoy playing the
game. If elected, I will try to figure out what the players want, and use
my power as Prime Minister to ensure that their will is carried out.

My honorable competitor has not demonstrated initiative in solving our
present problems. I thought of some solutions. People rather seem to
dislike at least the idea of repealing the whole economy, and are very
split on my other solution. My response to this has been twofold. First, I
have continued to push hard for the least destructive part of my solution.
Votes are very closely split on the matter, so it's hard to say that the
policy is actually unpopular. Second, I have asked for comments on what to
do, as detailed above. I would ask my honorable competitor what e has done
to help work through our current problems.

I become a candidate for Prime Minister.

Platform: Not being the other guy, who currently supports unpopular and
somewhat misguided reforms.
