Hello. ( tej, pragmatic as she is, has opted for voice for this post. it's a rich, chiming voice with a noticeable accent. ) I'm Lady Vorpatril ( she leaves out her first name — or any other name. she’d been hesitant to use the network in the first place, but using that gives her a little layer of protection in her mind. it’s been months, but it was months back in the nexus, too. ) and I work for Talk Show Radio Host Sush Whimbaugh. ( oh yes. )

Today everyone is going to the polls to vote, and as my boss had me interview the majority of candidates for his radio show, I thought I would share the results with you all. America's political system is very different from any that I'm used to — there's all this pretending that you're not even a little self-interested. And voting. ( that's for betans, although tej can kind of see the merits of it. but jackson's whole doesn’t pretend, it knows what people are like and rewards those who are skilled and ambitious enough. ) Still, I think I'm coming to understand a little of it.

Thank you, and may the best candidate win.

[[ ooc: each candidate has a comment with an audio clip of their interview — think radio interviews — feel free to comment to that as well as the overall post! ]]

Recent events have me thinking.

[ Stark says, taking a sip from his cup, before he focuses back on a camera. It's a lot more HD than your usual import camera -- then again, nothing but the best for Tony Stark. ]

In recent months, we've had people showing up, different times, completely different people, and now there's word of people sticking around. That's different, it's never happened before. [ A pause, a sip. ] But who knows, it could be a fluke, right? Or maybe I don't have complete data. Anyone else heard of anything like that happening?

I mean, that's as an aside. I've... I've seen a lot of people hold themselves responsible -- myself included -- for things that someone who isn't them did. Either a person they become, a person they were and aren't anymore -- or a completely different person.

Would you hold them responsible? After my...unfortunate incident I found people were holding me responsible for things that this -- different version of me had done. Is that a constant? Should people be held accountable for things that they weren't necessarily guilty of? If I'm ported out tomorrow, would the Tony Stark that replaces me be held accountable for anything I did over my time here?

[ Another pause then. His finger drums against the glass. ] Anyone have any thoughts?
