Shadow President: "I hope you know what you are doing."

One of my favorite computer games is one known as "Shadow President", a game where you get to simulate the job of the President. This involves making Presidential decisions, such as, god forbid, nuking the sweet bejeezus out of a nation. Today, we decide to nuke the sweet bejeezus out of Romania. Watch the aftermath. It's surprising that it takes me this long to lose power, and for the longest time, my approval ratings are actually above President Bush's lowest approval rating. Amazing.

NOTE: I do not condone nuclear war, or war of any sort Personally, the thought of a nuclear exchange in real life scares me. I was against the war in Iraq, and I still am. This, what you see, is footage from a computer game. I can differentiate real life and a computer game, and I hope you can too.

Where's the "Bad Idea" text?

[JoeytheHDK]

@EvilViolencePerson I think the "Bad Idea" text only comes with certain nations that I guess are A.) part of your world team alliance, B.) share the same ideology as you, C.) border you. I don't know, tho.

Secretary of Defense: "I hope you know what you are doing."

Me: "Of course I do, I'm starting World War III."

"The statement that Romania issued condemning our nation has backfired, damaging the credibility of Romania."

That about sums it all up.

@finalcut75 Wow man, such a fast reply! Thanks for all the help! :)

@EMPPT It's been years since I played this game, but I started from small countries, I put lot of troops in the border and then went to war room and conquered them. I remember that I should not come out from the war room or else I would be impeached. I also remember that if I conquered them really quick, it wouldnt affect on my popularity. Also surgical strikes on Iraq always raised my popularity when I needed it. So, use lot of troops and be quick about it.

@finalcut75 Do you have any hints on how to conquer all the countries?
