J Andres Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 (edited) After giving THIS speech to the domestic media, President Richard Mercton, shook hands with the dignitaries on the stage, then proceeded to enter the Adrik Annan Governmental Centre. He quickly composed himself as he entered the Executive Offices. The room was plain, as construction only finished nearly a week prior, but there was a desk with the J Andres flag as a backdrop. The cameraman in the room told him that the television stations across the world were ready to pick up the feed. It would be his first address to the world as President of the nation, at least a nation that actually had defined borders. He sat down at the desk. "Good Evening," he began, "Since my predecessor's passing about two months ago, I have been faced with the difficult task of helping my nation mourn. This task has been difficult, because my nation, has no citizens. Although we are united by our Andrean heritage, my children look at a map to find J Andres, and they cannot. My oldest child started the first grade last month, and he tried to tell his teacher where he was from. Instead he was told that he does not live in Endor Cuidad. He was told that he does not live in J Andres. He was told that he will learn of these places in History class later. I am a New Englander, only because it says so on my passport. I am a New Englander, only by the ancient definition of this region of North America. I am not a New Englander, pledging my allegiance to a flag bearing a tree." "I am a citizen of the Maritime Republic of J Andres. Just as my father was a founding figure for a close-knit community in 1981, and helped them on their path to independence as J Andres became a power on the eastern seaboard, I will do again. I have spoken to the Honorable President Kennedy, and he has agreed to give our great nation our independence. Although "Rhode Island" may have been a 'small' 1500 miles of land, this is my home, this is our home!"
