I've been seeing reports that nobody has signed up to run for the mayor and city council seats in the 500 person town of Philadelphia, Tn. Come on people, this is no Wasilla, but who knows what could happen for you if you helped our Philly get a bridge or sports arena, and besides when running for higher office you wouldn't need to specify which Philadelphia you were mayor of.

Massive public corruption, like "Diamond" Joe Quimby?

Invade Vonore (expecting serious resistance for Hal Jeffries, of course) or Sweetwater?

Create sex scandals so massive they make Mark Foley, Larry Craig and David Vetter look like cloistered nuns?

Exploit the workers by hanging on to outdated imperialist dogma which perpetuates the economic and social differences in our society?

Put a navy on The Lost Sea?
