Proposal: Manifest Destiny

Can’t pass with 13 votes against. Failed by Kevan.

Enact a new rule, “Manifestos”:-

Each Voter has a Manifesto, tracked in the GNDT. A Manifesto should describe the dynastic theme or themes that the Voter would consider running if they achieved victory.

A Manifesto may either be blank, or a piece of text no more than 50 characters in length. A Voter’s Manifesto defaults to blank, and a Voter may change their own Manifesto at any time.

May as well put these in the GNDT, for ease of reference.

50 characters in the GNDT is really awkward, especially when visiting blognomic from a mobile device.

Viewing BlogNomic from a mobile device is always awkward.

50 characters is too few, though. It would make more sense to sidebar link them.

I like the idea, but am not sure whether the GNDT is the best place. A wiki page in the sidebar might make more sense, or just blog posts like everyone’s been doing anyway. Perhaps a stickied post where people are encouraged to write one-liner manifestos?
