Shit, I know I checked so I’m not sure what I was looking at lmao. I’d rather go back to the drawing board but also don’t want to grind this thing to a halt, so let’s do this: 1. Leave Boyd at CIA (his term wasn’t up so that doesn’t count against retaining 5 people). 2. Move Foglietta to UN. 3. Move Harris to AG (she has Welfare, but not Justice, so I can’t just move her to FBI). 4. Move Calogero to FBI. -

Are the positions of DNC and RNC chair in the game?
jnewt replied to theFreezerFlame's topic in A More Perfect Union (AMPU)
They aren't, but that would be kind of cool. I think it's way too late to add it to the game at this point, though. -

Ahhhh, I thought we only stopped allowing career trackers to run for office, not appointments to the senate - I’ll appoint William Butler @ShortKing. On a related note, does that mean we can’t appoint career trackers to the cabinet/military/SCOTUS either? -
