Here at the Congressional Report, we interview all the candidates running, and although the questions asked vary, some remain the same. In this series we will directly juxtapose the answers of the Presidential Candidate with their running mate to give readers a more complete picture of the whole ticket.
How would you describe yourself politically?
Ricca
I would describe myself as a staunch defender of workers rights, a fighter for every oppressed people’s liberation and freedom. I believe rights are not rights if even a single person does not have the possibility of accessing that right. I am on the left, without a shade of a doubt, and i am very libertarian, as my record shows.
Cade
I would consider myself a socially-libertarian welfare capitalist.
What do you like to do for fun?
Ricca
I am a cellist, i love classical music and in particular Baroque music (favourites are Bach and Scarlatti). I like going to the theatre, but this has been impossible with the recent Covid restrictions. I love reading, and i am a veteran bookworm. I love hanging out with friends, discussing over whatever topic comes at hand, and generally have a good fun and relaxed time. I also have a passion for grand strategy games.
Carrot
I spend essentially all of my free time learning or planning in some way or other, though occasionally if there’s a good movie or show, I’ll binge that instead. Recently I’ve started to read books, which is honestly not something I’ve had the attention span for until now.
If you had to summarize what your campaign stands for in one word, what would that be?
Ricca
I believe that the word that best describes my campaign is democracy. We as an administration would work to democratise every aspect of society, and defend the people’s rights to their fullest.
Cade
Progress.
What is your running mate’s best quality?
Ricca
I believe that Cade’s best quality is his deep knowledge in disparate fields and dedication to quality lawmaking, a commitment that he has made display of multiple times in the past. We have our divergences, mainly on some economic solutions and foreign policy, but we have worked many times in the past as a team and i pride myself to say that i consider him a friend.
Cade
Ricca is an open minded person with whom you can reason. I consider that most important.
