First post!

Hey everyone! Check out our nationstate at http://www.nationstates.net/east_pac_nation. When I set it up I tried answered each initial question with a liberal or conservative view (I switched off, so it was half liberal and half conservative) but for some reason it came up as "Liberal Democratic Socialists". Well if you don't like it, your votes can change it! Every week day I will post a different issue and you can vote on the outcome, or you can vote to dismiss it. Majority rules, and I will count up the votes at 10.30 pm and cast the collective vote of the club. You can only comment if you are a member of the blog, so be sure to make a blogspot username (if you have one for a class at school, you can use that one). For the first issue, I'll allow until 10.30 on Thursday night for you to cast your vote since we're off from school. Feel free to discuss the issue within the comments but please only cast one vote. Also! We need someone to make a spiffy flag for the nation so if you have graphic design skillz, be sure to design one for us. It has to be a jpeg, 107x71 pixels, no larger than 10 kb, and cannot be offensive (no nudity and no, like, swastikas). We'll vote on a motto and a national animal in the club. Also, I created a region so we can all kind of battle against each other (http://www.nationstates.net/33227/page=display_region/region=smithtown_political_awareness). The password to enter the region is 12345.
