I love this game and am glad someone finally combined two of my favorite things, video games and American politics. But I do have a wishlist that would add to my enjoyment of this game.
First, I would like to be able to run primaries, running dems against dems and republicans against republicans when they have to take more extreme views to win the base. In a perfect world I would like to see you have to beat an opponent, and have your views set out, in a primary before you get to take on the other party.
Second, I need more stats. I would like to see the population break down. Now I know this would require a lot of additional code so I don't expect it but we are talking about what I want, I don't expect any of it.
I would also like to see endorsements based on position rather than being able to buy them. Or change it so that it costs a candidate that just supported more gun controls to get the gun lobby than it does a candidate that has spent 30 weeks supporting less gun control.
Also it would be nice to set a stump speech. Picking an issue that your candidate is most interested in pushing and having a speech that gets a point more per speech or something similar.
And finally, I would like to see most of the effects toned down a bit. The cheerleader for example doubles exposure in a state every week. Now if that is compounded, it only takes 7 weeks to go from 1% to 100% even if your candidate never goes to the state. Just seems a bit out of whack.
Again, this is just my wishlist, I do love the game as is and am greatful to have it. But if you guys ever consider an expansion, perhaps you could touch on these.
