| Message | i doubt this will pass as there is strong socialist (+utopian communist, read Socialist Alliance) opposition. |

| Message | Well, at least we can try.. it probably will not pass, but at least the people will see what we stand for: a free market. They can see this way that there is an alternate for the insane communist ideas of the current government |

| Random fact: Party candidates for head of state elections are not visible to the public. This means that you cannot see who will run and who will not, which adds another strategic element to the elections. |
