| Message | We would like to ask the Präsident if this proposal has been discussed in your Cabinet? What is your view on this matter? Heinz Drugel Spokesman on Human Rights |

| Message | This was not cleared with me, and we don't support it. It's quite absurd to think mistreating people will make them behave, they'll just see us as savages. Sally Gretchen President of the Dorvish Republic |

| Message | This is a standalone NP policy, with all free to vote how they please, and as such has not been discussed. If the PKP disagree, they vote no. It's called democracy. Hans Gluck Minister for Foreign Affairs NP Leader |

| Message | It is troubling to reflect on the fact that the man proposing this legislation, Hans Gluck, is Dorvik's Minister for Foreign Affairs, and is going to be leading candidate of the right-wing parties for President at the next election. I hope the public will take a good long look at who you are and what you stand for, Herr Gluck. You are the personal embodiment of what this government represents, and the next election will be very much about whether the Dorvish people want to embrace you or reject you. Anton Weinreich General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |

| Message | Indeed, Präsident Gretchen does not seem to worry at all of having such a party joining her Cabinet with this kind of views. Why is that? Heinz Drugel |

| Message | The alternative is communism, Mr Drugel. Sally Gretchen President of the Dorvish Republic |

| Message | Herr Gluck was a man with vision. Yes, his vision was sometimes awry, but what he stood for was noble. He looked out at Dorvik, and said, "Yes, we are good. But good is not enough. We must be great." And he began his pursuit of greatness. His path was... not always orthodox. But his intentions were noble, and it is that I embrace: a dedication to our nation, in every respect. That is why we are the National Party. Anna Strauss Acting Foreign Minister Minister for Food and Agriculture NP Leader |

| 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. |
