SRL Archive - Discussions & Debates

It is time to elect the world leader, and yours is the deciding vote. Here are
the facts about the three leading candidates:


Candidate A: Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologers. He's had two mistresses and was not discrete about it. He also chain smokes and drinks ~10 martinis a day.

Candidate B: Was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.

Candidate C: a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, politically conservative, doesn't smoke, drinks an occasional beer and hasn't had any extramarital affairs.


Who would you vote for? Make your decision, post what you thought about the candidate and why you chose them.

Hitler WON

I voted A. Seems like a pretty nice guy to me. Seriously, though, I knew what the answers were.

Biased stuff.

Hitler wasn't that bad, he did great (!). It was the nazi-stuff that made it all nasty.

Too little info. You do not discuss their political beliefs or the like, only a few aspects of their life in an attempt to persuade us to choose C over A or B.

I can safely tell you that I have not smoked or drank excessively on any occasion for the last 15 years. I haven't been involved in any office related scandals; I haven't been in the press under negative life.

There is a lot more that would make me an ideal political candidate, but I think this is sufficient to highlight my point that your topic for discussion is flawed.

Um, it's not. What you pointed out WAS the point.

Too bad that I heard this before :(.

Same. I liked the sound of him.

This is stupid.

I voted B, who doesn't want an alcoholic opium head as ruler? I know I do!! :p haha, hope he wins

EDIT: I'm the only one who wants a doped up ruler? lmao

wow….lets list bad stuff about people who don't kill jews, then list some good stuff about the guy that does kill jews in an attempt to troll some people on a forums….wonder where this idea came about…

Um, this isn't a troll post. This is an old experiment. Harry didn't come up with it.

Edit:
I voted A. Nice thread Harry :)

Ya know, Hitler would've been hailed as one of the best rulers of all time… if it weren't for the whole Nazi-ism, Jew-killing rampage thing.

EDIT: Ya, I picked C.

I am well aware that harry didn't come up with this

Candidate B: Was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.

That's who i voted for. Being kicked out of office shows he has his own piece of mind, no matter if it goes against the boss' mind, I'd like to be led by someone who has his own ideas, his own dynamic. Sleeping until noon is not a bad fact to be honest, you have to consider the possibilites. Maybe he's so into his work he went to sleep at 5am, just to get that extra thing done. Using opium in college - so what? So do I, and everyone does it for different reasons. I'm for the philosophy that you should try things at least once, and then you can either choose not to do it, or to do it again. There's so many questions in life, why leave another one unaswered? Finally, about drinkng whisky every evening, each one has his own thing. Everyone's addicted to something, everyone needs to be addicted to something, as it gives us somewhat of a routine, something to do when we have nothing to do. Most of us just check SRL before going to bed as an addiction. Plus, at the end of the day, we all want to relax in some way, especially if we've actually been doing something stressful as in leading the world.

Honestly, I was quite happy to find out I voted for Churchill.

I knew about this before, but I voted B as well. Honestly, I don't think I'd ever trust a vegetarian conservative :p.

I agree with RM it seems mostly. The combination of getting kicked out of office but not going to jail means it wasn't anything like Blagojevich was pulling (my state's Governer too of all people). I honestly don't care about drugs people used to use, though I'd rather not have any politicians on any while they're in office (you probably won't get much done if you're always high, though the little that you do get done would probably be actually beneficial to the people for once). I don't know much about alcohol, a quart sounds like less than 10 martinis to me but I could be completely wrong :)

1 quart = 1 liter? i think. thats what the internet said :P

the most whiskey ive ever had in one sitting was i think around 400 mL i couldnt imagine drinking 1000mL xD

Lawl, most people voted for Hitler.

I got Churchill! :D

Can someone explain who Roosevelt is for ignorant people such as I am ?

how about adding "caused 56,125,262 deaths" to the third one?

Hitler actually wasn't such a good leader at all. He may have even lost the war due to his ignorance. He hardly ever listened to his generals and other staff, and was generally unrealistic.

I'd say Napoleon was cooler. :p

This.

You had me at "opium and a quart of whiskey", Churchill…

how bout, that's not always a bad thing when you are going for power, I bet over half the leaders of nations have killed thousands of people because when people want power, they resort to war and violence. I'm not sure of Hitler's reason for killing jews, I always hear he just didn't like people that didn't look a certain way, but there is probably something more to it than that. Stating he killed people isn't very different from most other leaders though, I don't like Hitler, just saying, you can't just hate him because he killed people, it's because he racistly killed people.

O.o??? Not only was he a genius, but he helped Germany a lot before he began to take control with the Nazi party.

Germany was in horrible shape due to the Great Depression. It was also in a bad condition because of the Treaty of Versailles. Germany had one of the worst economies out of all the major industrial powers.

Hitler was able to get Germany out of this horrid economy and by the time he decided to take over the country, Germany had a very strong economy again.

oh n fyi - i am not a fan of Hitler, but i do give credit when credit is due. he was a great leader before 1936.


EDIT: recommended read- The Nazi Economy by Richard Overy

Napoleon was much better, but Hitler having the ability to go from the bottom to the top during the depression is very good.

Also, it might be my age group but everyone finds it funny to raise there hands like Hitler did when answering a question. Pisses people thinking that there cool.

lmao I wanna do that now and I know I'm a bit older than you, probably just a kid in school thing :p, either that or I'm an immature Sr. lol, but I love it. But I should do it to my jewish teacher and see if it writes me up, haha na that'd be too mean, and he's cool, I wouldn't do it.


x[Warrior]x3500, same with my last post, just giving credit when credit is due, and pointing obvious bias-ism and how you shouldn't say he kill people because that's not unique to him. Lots of people have.

…? he deserves credit for what he did to the Germany economy before 1936. I hate Hitler because of what he did after 1936. and where did u get the killing ppl. i didnt mention that because i was showing how Hitler started off as a good leader. i wasnt even going to into his later years because they were off topic from my point.

I voted for B cause he sounds like a pretty cool guy.
