Now, Telemecus, if you are proposing that you would prefer to re-open the process to consider additional candidates (yourself being the obvious choice to run against Orm), please follow Robert's Rules of Order to state your case in a motion properly. Your motion (if seconded, of course) would then follow in accord with the rules.
You should know that I have no desire for this high office - I accept your nomination only for the fame and power. I shall consider myself only to be the stalking horse candidate. I do this in truth only to help Orm, as to be elected without having produced a manifesto and spent millions in political TV advertising first he will be a poorer Governor without it. I choose however to move myself forward not on the Robert's Rules of Order but on the T34 positive motion basis.
But I didn't nominate you Telemecus. You can't accept a nomination as a stalking horse / dark horse candidate if no such nomination is produced. Also, before you self-nominate please know that such an action is generally not accepted unless self-nomination is apriori accepted for these high offices.
Now, of course Orm, or anyone else that hasn't provided a nomination (or seconded one) can nominate you for office. He has not yet nominated anyone else, nor has he voted. As a valued member of THE THREAD!!!, his opinion is meritorious too.
Although your concept of co-Governorship is irregular, how you would choose to divide the duties of office with Orm could be left to the two of you. After you get voted in of course. Which can only take place after nomination. And the vote.
Order man. Order. Would you see THE THREAD!!! descend into wanton chaos and dysfunction? Therein lies the abyss.
ETA: Point of order. The armored vehicle shown is not a T-34, but an M1A1 Abrams MBT. How can you apply some Pinko tank principle to 'Murican hardware? [:@]
