       Jag McCartney Officially Announces Run and Platform

       Jag McCartney recently announced he indeed will be running for
       president. McCartney is best known as the current Colombian
       Representative, the writer of an Articles of Confederation used
       by the former UCA, and a proud secessionist who has lead many
       pro-states rights rallies. McCartney was born in the Colombian
       town of Bethlehem. He worked hard from a very young age, helping
       his father in his sharecropping business. McCartney however
       would begin to focus on the original aspects of life by the age
       of 25 by becoming a local Baptist preacher. At the age of 36
       McCartney engaged in politics by being promoted to the Spiritual
       Cabinet under Governor Jeb L. Jones. When Governor Preston was
       elected McCartney decided to run for a senate seat for the
       plantation town of Monticello. And just recently at the age of
       41, McCartney has announced his run for President of the NCSA.
       McCartney has also served time in the military from the age of
       20-23, he received the metal of honor for his battles in South
       Africa against anti-white blacks. McCartney released these as
       his key points to the platform. McCartney will be running as a
       Jefferson Party Candidate.
       Constitutional Reform
       --- Quote ---
       > On day one I will call upon congress to make a constitutional
       change. It is clear that there are many things wrong with our
       constitution and one of those being its lack of respect for the
       rights of states. I hope this can be discussed in a civil
       discourse. This Convention would be to benefit all states and
       not just a few, as all would be included and all voices would be
       heard. It's time to put the power back in the hands of the
       states and the people and out of the hands of a bloated
       government.

       Land Expansion
       --- Quote ---
       > We the people of the NCSA have every right to expand, in fact
       I've been pushing this for a very long time in my state, but due
       to laws and the current constitution our colonies and imperial
       states are not recognized by the NCSA, it's time for that to
       change. I would allow a southward expansion into the oceans,
       Mexico, and South America.

       Agrarian Economics
       --- Quote ---
       > If there is anything I learned as a kid it's that hard work
       pays off and the industrialized world really hasn't built a
       strong moral ground for anyone. It's created corporate greed in
       capitalism and thievery as well as imprisonment in the dense
       view of socialism. Agrarianism has helped Colombia prosper for
       ages. We currently are a top producer in cotton and it brings in
       the money to fund our state. Not only that but we have gained
       morals. Working hard has made our nation great and trusting in
       God alone has made us even better than we could've imagined.
       While I wouldn't force upon an agrarian economy I would offer
       incentives to any state that wishes to be involved in a pact to
       help grow out morals and grounds in God through the agrarian
       system.

       A Message From Senator Jag McCartney
       --- Quote ---
       > Hello, my name is Jag McCartney, I grew up like most of y'all.
       I wasn't wealthy and I lived off the land. I understood what
       Independence meant from a young age. I know that things have
       been rough recently but I'm the guy that can bring this nation
       together. It'll take all of us to get back on track but I think
       we could do it. Please consider me for your vote on September
       1st

       " A question sir. You talk of wanting to bring Constitutional
       change. What are three areas you think need the most amending?
       "You also say you will call on Congress to make that change.
       How will you achieve this when because of actions of your state
       and voicing of issues dear to your nation many of the states are
       distrustful of you. How can you initiate change if you do not
       have the numbers. Also do you plan to annouce who you will call
       on to be your VP. Any deals in the shadows of Congress been
       made?

       "Well the thing is, I can't change a thing, but I'll sign it in
       as long as it doesn't violate state's rights. I think that 3
       things I'd like Congress to look into, even just the slightest
       bit would be A) Nullification, as in we should have a discussion
       over it, B) Restricting of Presidential Authorities and C) I'd
       have to say something to keep Congress held responsible for it's
       actions, so that we have a more efficient Congressional System
       instead of the flim flam all over the place stuff we have going
       on right now at this very moment."
       "I assume you are referring to a short lived war to protect
       State's Rights and slavery. Well the thing is, we kinda won the
       war. We got people's attention and the current President has
       even acknowledged that things need to be changed in the
       Constitution to protect the things we were protecting, a state's
       rights. As for slavery, I completely understand. I know some of
       my friends in Congress have told me, maybe it just needs a name
       change, and he's right the term slave is outdated in our system,
       and I think if people sat down and read our laws and read with
       an open mind you'd see something interesting, it's that we still
       respect that individual's rights, even as a servant. If Congress
       doesn't want a change then I'd ask Congress to go to the State's
       and ask their people what they want. I can't force anything to
       happen as President and I wouldn't force anything at all to
       happen. As for VP, no that is not going to be talked about now.
       I have some thoughts but I'm not decided, I still have to win."

       A man with a faint Frijstaater twang asks: "By only advocating
       for expansion southwards, are you not inherently discriminating
       against northern states, who might seek to expand northwards?
       It seems as if your expansion allowances would only benefit
       southerners, such as your home state, while denying northerners
       the 'right' to expand as you see it."

       "I would be open to an expansion northwards, if you mean the
       Canadian Territories. Sure, I'm open for expansion period."
