PROPOSED: C-SPAM elections to take place in the 3rd week of the month, every 3 months, and the election threads shall be run henceforth by the incumbent C-SPAM President.
THUS:The next C-SPAM election will be conducted during the week of April 18^th in this TYOOL 2017, TYOODJT 1. The election will be run in an identical manner to the preceding one, unless a change in format is unanimously approved by the President's cabinet no fewer than 14 days before the date of the election.

DECLARED: I hereby clause myself to promote, manifest, and enshrine a tradition of peaceful transfer of power between the outgoing and incoming administrations, effective during the 4th week of April, 2017.

Below this point are policy initiatives and cabinet nominations:
Policy Proposals

Lock. Him. Up! C-SPAM initiative 0001. A poll thread shall be posted, yes or no. If more than 50% of votes are YES, Boosted_C5 is to be probated for 14088 hours.

C.S.P.A.M. P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Act C-SPAM initiative 0002. Communism and Socialism Potentiation for All Mankind by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Insurrect and Obstruct Trumpism Act. The "Getting Involved in Local Politics" or whatever the heck it's called now thread and all threads deemed similar enough in intent must be celebrated and encouraged. Being mindful about posting too much identifying information and self-doxxing, it will be the policy of this administration that if you are helping to make things better in the world please post about it. It will make you feel good to share your successes and struggles. It will encourage others to get involved. It's been 2 days since the largest mass peaceful protest in American history. There's actual good you can do by getting involved at the local level and every little bit helps.

Let's Read! C-SPAM initiative 0003. C-SPAM will have a quarterly book club thread, coinciding with each administration. For this one, because I have not read it, because I feel like I should probably have read it already or at some point, I am proposing Saul Alinsky's Rules For Radicals: A Practical Primer for Realistic Radicals, unless there is popular demand for another book for Q1 2017.

Drug Testing for D&D refugees. C-SPAM initiative 0004. Because this is clearly the superior forum, refugees from D&D are flooding across the border. When D&D sends its people, they�re not sending their best. They�re not sending you. They�re not sending you. They�re sending people that have lots of problems, and they�re bringing those problems with us. They�re bringing libertarians. They�re bringing insufferable primary salt. They�re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people. If someone is found posting in C-SPAM after having posted primarily in D&D in the past they're allowed to stay as long as they can prove they are smoking weed now or at least drinking as much as Baloogan. Something. God drat. Just be on drugs and you pass the test.

Cabinet Nominations
By executive fiat the following departments of C-SPAM will be established and officers appointed:

Vice-President. To fulfill the role of C-SPAM President in the event of the President's death, resignation, or impeachment. Turdfuzz

Secretary of Cannabis and Music. C-SPAM is not C-SPAM without its nocturnal citizenry. Mariana Horchata

Secretary of Fine Art and Gifs. Sigs, gifs, pretty mspaints, etc. A healthy subforum needs em. Al!

Secretary of Spinny Text. See above. Squizzle

Special Advisor to the President. Epic High Five

Thank you. I'll take an extra-large curly fries, a medium diet coke light ice, extra napkins, and every last ketchup packet in the building. Hail Satan.

Tempted to vote no because I'm not sure 14088 hours is long enough

Voting yes tho, good platty on the aggregate

The vote is now closed. Please welcome our newly elected President, crazy cloud!

I expect the inauguration festivities to draw quite a crowd, and look forward to a fair, just, and entertaining term.
