Mohammed Dockery

From Wikimerica, the United States encyclopedia

**Mohammed Scognamiglio Dockery** (August 29, 2098 - August 30, 2387) was an American politician who served as Representative and Senator from Bahrain and as the 88th President of the United States from 2185 to 2193. Dockery was the first Sunni Muslim President and would cite the Quran often during his term. Dockery as President signed into law the S.T.A.R.R. Act, the National Sanity Restoration Act and the 33rd Amendment to the Constitution. The 33rd Amendment made official the abolition of Presidential Elections and gave the power of picking the President to the Imperialist Counsel. An Imperialist hardliner he maintained support for the Party for its entire existence, during his term and after. When the Second American Revolution broke out he declared support for the Party and held that vocal support until the Imperialist's surrender in 2216.

Dockery would speak out against the Commawatch Resistance calling them "bloodthirsty terrorists" and "psychotic mindless apes". Buying fully into Imperialist party propaganda, Dockery fled Washington in March 2115 fearing Commawatch brutality.

After the fall of the Party Dockery was terrified about being arrested by the restored Federal Government and considered fleeing to Mecca. However the Blankenship and Alighieri II Administration's took little notice of Dockery and other Former Imperialist Presidents. After seeing he would face no repercussions for his Administration and support for the Imperialist Party he would begin to speak out against nearly every one of Blankenship's Actions then moving onto Alighieri during his term.

Dockery would mount several exploratory campaigns for President after leaving office, dropping out each time after showing zero percent in Liberty Party polls. Dockery was seen as a traitor by most and seen to have fully sold out to the Party. He would never be invited back to the White House unlike other Former Presidents except for one time in 2223 by President Alighieri to celebrate to completion of Continual Destiny and the restoration of America's territory. He would for his part aid in convincing his home state of Bahrain and the State of Qatar into rejoining the United States for the economic good of their people.

In 2273 President Augustus Julius would revoke Dockery's secret service protection believing him still to be a traitor and thinking it disgraceful to use taxpayer money to protect him.

Mohammed Dockery is widely considered to be one of the worst Presidents of all time and on the lower half of Imperialist Presidents for his dogmatic loyalty to the Party, willingness to sign Democracy out of existence, constant opposition to the Second American Revolution and general distain for Democracy. He had one of the longest retirements of any President at 194 years, dying halfway through the Omestede Administration in 2387.

## Presidency

### American-Kramerian War

In 2187, President Dockery and the Imperialist Party grew increasingly concerned of the Republic of Krameria's recently concluded Yankees Presidency. From the fact that Krameria elected an openly-socialist President, in addition to the fact that it maintained an "immigration program" that aided citizens from foreign nations flee to Krameria, the Imperialists resumed Pasquale-era policy of treating Krameria as a socialist nation that wanted to form its own empire. Because of this, President Dockery bribed CIA Director Astral Trinity to orchestrate the collapse of the Kramerian government, and successfully passed his own law naming Krameria an American territory.

On November 21, American troops touched down on Kramerian soil in an attempt to begin the occupation. Within less than two weeks, however, American forces would see conflict from the Kramerian "People's Resistance", a private military which had prepared for an American invasion of this manner. Matters worsened on December 1, 2187, when the Kramerian military once again defended their nation and fought against the American troops.

By March 21, 2188, the American military was pushed off of the Kramerian island. Following this, Krameria commenced the next part of their plan, known as "Operation North America Liberation": An operation that would aid American Imperialist-dissenters flee to Krameria.

Seeing that the United States was losing the war, President Dockery called for a ceasefire between the United States and Krameria. He, military Head Administrator Alexandria Plotonia, and military Senior Administrator Charles Freland agreed that both sides would stop their attacks; in exchange, Dockery would pay the two men a sizable amount of money. Plotonia offered Dockery a peace conference with President Legion, yet Dockery declined out of dread for an official American military defeat. Thus, Plotonia and Freland officially accepted the ceasefire agreement for the time being; President Dockery served out the remainder of his administration in a state of peace.
