1431 It’s Never Wrong to Try

Mr. Geruno unseats the current president, and if the successor president is still from the Progressive Party, it will be tantamount to a "feud."

The Progressive Party needs to be consistent in dealing with certain general circumstances. Anyone who dares to mess around will be against everyone.

Even if someone does it for money, they may not be able to get the money.

On the contrary, the Conservative Party not only has no "hatred" with the Duncan family, but has had more cooperation before. Although the Chairman of the Conservative Committee is not very happy with this proposal, it is indeed the best choice.

The short old man had a very cunning smile on his face, but if you look closely, it's not that complicated.

"You are right. We had other candidates before..."

While he was talking, Mr. President came back and sat down in his seat. After a short silence, the Chairman of the Progressive Party Committee took the initiative to talk about the matter.

"We were just discussing the next presidential candidates. What do you think...?"

This is just a polite exchange. In fact, Mr. President has no say in who the next president will be. This question is just a comfort.

At least from the perspective of Mr. President, he is also involved in the planning of the birth of the next president. After the new president emerges, he will have an important sense of participation, so there will not be so many problems with the new president. .

The candidate mentioned by the Chairman of the Progressive Party Committee is the candidate that the party planned to recommend to replace Mr. President. His attitude is more radical, and some of his ideas have also been supported by the military.

If Mr. Trueman hadn't mobilized the military to side with the president, he might not have won the election.

Mr. President's emotions at this time are very complicated for this former intra-party rival.

He thought he would become a successful president. At least he had been president for two years after his predecessor took the blame and resigned. If he could be re-elected, it would be ten years!

A ten-year term was enough for him to become an unavoidable president in federal history, but who could have imagined that the accident would come so quickly.

Just a little accident on the issue of women allowed people to find loopholes and handles. Under his calm surface, there was anger raging like a thunderstorm.

He fell into trouble because of a woman's betrayal.

A smile appeared on his face, "It's a very good proposal. If it is him, I don't think there is any problem."

In a daze, another person appeared in his mind, Trueman, his best adviser, best assistant, and best partner!

To be honest, Trueman may be one of the most capable people in the President's perception. His planning and execution abilities, as well as his attitude towards work, are the best.

And he also has many supporters, such as Lynch and the military.

But this idea was quickly erased from his mind, because Trueman was really "too young". He was only in his forties. If he ran for president, that would mean he was fifty. There won't be much to do after that.

The Federal Charter allows the president to skip a term and run again after his term ends, but this is ultimately only a written rule in the charter.

No one would actually do that because people wouldn't allow it.

Serving for too long will allow a president to control all aspects of the country beyond what politicians can bear.

The power of the presidential cabinet will be infinitely amplified, and even Congress will become a decoration, which is exactly what the federal people least want to see.

The Federation is a free federation, not a paradise for dictators, so no matter how successful a president is, he will not continue to run for office after his term ends.

Unless he is not a politician at heart, he doesn't abide by the rules that politicians have to abide by, but he won't get more support either!

After the age of fifty, Trueman will become an idler, which does not comply with the rules of employment.

The social operating mechanism of the federal commodification is to squeeze out the greatest value from people. After Mr. Trueman has continued to contribute his ability to the federal government for more than ten years, it is only right for him to run for president.

In this way, after the end of the presidential term, his career in the federal government has basically reached the end, and then he turned to a broker or a think tank group similar to his staff to continue to shine.

The president didn't speak. He felt it was unfair to Trueman. He should enjoy more time in power instead of retiring early.

"It seems there is no objection?", the chairman of the Progressive Party Committee smiled slightly. Although he was not tall and his voice was not loud, every word he said was full of silent power!

"I will talk to him about this later. Now let's get back to the core of the discussion..."

The discussion lasted until after three o'clock in the morning. What ended was this discussion. In fact, the storm had just formed.

The next day Mr. Geruno met with some people again. He did not meet with the real senior leaders of the two parties because he knew that these were the people who were going to attack him.

He is trying his best to win over middle-level politicians. There is even news that Mr. Geruno is trying to form a new political group. He will fully support this group to play a more important role in federal politics!

The news was honestly shocking and brought home his madness.

At this time, Lynch was sitting in Mr. Trueman's office.

The atmosphere was a little depressing. In fact, Mr. Trueman knew very well that he was on a path of rapid growth.

The Department of International Affairs gives him enough stage to show himself, and the President's trust in him allows him to do many things that some people think are outrageous without being punished.

These are all essential processes for his growth. In this process, he can find his own path, find the essence of his own political program, and then improve his political thought, and finally organize it into a complete system with core ideas. political philosophy.

But at such a very important time, Mr. President suddenly...

This is so frustrating... I don’t know what to say!

After a while, Mr. Trueman sighed, "Mr. President and I have already talked. He basically has no chance of re-election. The next presidential candidate is..."

He said the person's name, and Lin Qi nodded slightly. He wanted to say something more, but finally chose to keep his mouth shut.

Some of the words he said didn't sound very nice and would make Lynch feel like he was complaining.

But Lynch was well placed to say, "You don't seem to be as close to him as you are to Mr. President."

This is inevitable. Every top-level politician has his own team. From drivers to staff, he will only use people he trusts. Others who have joined him will not enter this core even if they are capable. .

This is why the candidates for the presidential cabinet are nominated by the president himself, rather than through voting, unless someone feels that the presidential cabinet is too idle, or the country is too powerful and needs to be weakened.

Otherwise no one would try to change this.

Since this core can no longer easily accommodate new members, this means that once the new president is sworn in, Mr. Trueman will leave the Department of International Affairs in no more than six months.

He must step down. Such an important position cannot be placed in the hands of the former president's confidant, even if the two presidents belong to the same political camp or even have a good relationship.

This is all impossible. Once he loses this position and the label on him is obvious, the probability that Mr. Trueman wants to integrate into other small political groups will be infinitely reduced.

Unless he joins a small group from scratch, or...

"Have you considered what I told you before?" Lynch threw a cigarette and said, "Why don't you stand up for yourself?"

"I know and can see that you are more suitable for that position than others."

"War is about to break out, and we need someone who really understands war, not someone who understands one-sided war through other people's methods."

Mr. Trueman, who was lighting a cigarette, was stunned for a moment, then blew a few times and the cigarette burned.

The blackened cigarette looked a little ugly in his hand, so he put it out in the ashtray and took another one from his cigarette case.

"Why are you talking about this suddenly?", he asked.

Lynch shrugged, "I just don't want the Federation to miss an important opportunity. The next war is crucial to the Federation."

"Our performance will determine our international status and voice for at least the next two decades."

"I don't believe anyone can do it better than you, and you have a closer connection with the military than anyone else. Only you can do this!"

Politicians and the military have always been two groups that are not close to each other. They need to avoid suspicion. Secondly, the two systems are not the same. What politicians use does not work in the military.

The military is actually a closed and authoritarian group, and power is inherited or inherited.

A general must have many nephews, sons or relatives who are military officers. When he retires, one of these people will definitely become a major general.

Politicians cannot integrate unless they start from the bottom, but the military's instinctive resistance to politicians gives politicians no chance to do this.

Mr. Trueman is different. He is an anomaly. He can make the federal government and the federal army work closely together. He is the link, the bridge, and the key to the federal victory!

Lynch's words caused Mr. Trueman to fall into thinking. He did not answer immediately. The misty smoke was like his thoughts at this time, without any track or rules.

He thought a lot, here and there, about four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. After about ten minutes, he came back to his senses.

A slight movement in his hand caused a large piece of cigarette ashes to fall on the table. While blowing the ashes to the ground, he said, "What you said made me very nervous."

"Can I really lead this country as far as you say?"

Lynch smiled and asked, "Why don't we try?"
