| Message | There's no need to establish vice presidential post as Prime Minister can act as vice president. |
| Date | 14:02:20, February 10, 2007 CET | From | National Conservative Conference | To | Debating the Vice Presidential Act |
| Message | Yes but if the PM and President are from different parties, then the Acting President (PM) would have a completely different agenda and would therefore create a power shift that would cause chaos and confusion. It is essential that the Party who holds the President names their Vice President as well. |

| Message | We would agree there would need to be a line of succession, but would it matter if a different party controlled the presidency, when there will be more pressing issues at that time, such as who or how the President was killed? |

| Date | 14:08:01, February 11, 2007 CET | From | Democratic Party of Dorvik | To | Debating the Vice Presidential Act |
| Message | After closer thinking, we are ready to support the proposal of creating office for vice president though if HoS party also has ministers in the government, one of their ministers should adopt the role of vice president. |
