## About

The Aardvark Anonymous Aficionado's, also called the Ardy Aardvark Administration, or Alcoholic Aardvarks Anonymous and often shortened to AAA or Triple A, are a presidential campaign/political party in the server's 2021 presidential election.

## Beginnings

As the Election Era officially began as a product of the BCTSN, the AAA party formed as a product of Ardy's temporary moments in power. Ghet, a fellow member of the BCTSN and endorsement of Ardy being given power from day one, agreed to run as Ardy's vice president.

## Members

The AAA party is headed by Ardy (President) and Ghet (Vice President). Ardy's proposed cabinet (should she be elected) is predetermined and as follows:

* Secretary of State: Cipher
* Secretary of Treasury: Quiche
* Secretary of Defense: ib
* Head of Security: Soep
* Secretary of Commerce: Sver
* Attorney General: Maya
* Foreign Relations: Kirby

The cabinet is largely diverse and contains members of the BCTSN, L'russian's, Dutchies, Wilbies, PST Gang, Milk's Bitches, Staff, and other significant factions.

## Ideology, Policy, and Goals

During Ardy's temporary moments in power on March 21, 2021, she delivered an address to the people of Christin in the announcements channel. The transcript is as follows:

> *Fellow citizens of the Band of Yahoos [CHRISTIN] Discord Server,*
>
>
> *As I write you today, I have been appointed temporary President of this great nation. While it will be short lived, I ask that you grant me your ideas of what I can do to improve the server. As it lasts, I will be the best I can be for you. My campaign for presidency was arranged in 2 minutes with 0 thought. I thank current president Char for granting me such an honor.*
>
>
> *Currently, my cabinet is as such:*
>
>
> *Vice President: Jamie*
>
>
> *Secretary of State: Ghet*
>
>
> *Secretary of Treasury: Quiche*
>
>
> *Head of Security: Soep*
>
>
> *Attorney General: Maya*
>
>
> *Thank you, citizens, for your time. I will do my best to lead this country for 5 minutes. Please give me ideas of what the heck I can do.*
>
>
> *I am also demanding, as my first act as President, that this message be dubbed ‘The Aardvark Address’. Thank you.*
>
>
>
> *This is President Ardy Aardvark, signing off. Time to shake some babies and kiss some hands*
>

As is consistent with the beginning of the Election Era, Jamie denied this position in Ardy's cabinet and chose instead to create their own campaign. The rest of the members of Ardy's cabinet accepted their positions, with some shuffling and new additions to fill in for the space that Jamie left.

Following the announcement of the Presidential Election, a chat was made for discussion within the AAA cabinet. Presidential Nominee Ardy gave the following address:

> *Cabinet members of the Ardy Aardvark Administration (AAA), it is with great honor that I address you today. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for accepting this role as cabinet members, to declare an oath; to each other, and to the great nation we are fighting for.*
>
>
> *It is truly a sight to see. I value each of you, your time, and your dedication. To think this all started in the BCTS GC is a riot. I’m astounded that we’ve come so far, and I’m sure we will go on to achieve great things.*
>
>
> *Whether we win or lose, it’s been a privilege to stand here and call you my friends and my confidants.*
>
>
> *Thank you,*
>
>
>
> *-President Nominee Ardy Aardvark*
>

In the pair's presidential campaign forms, Ghet and Ardy submitted these reasonings respectively as to why they are running:

> *I would like to have fun! Improve the server. As Presidential Nominee, it is my goal to achieve happiness server-wide. Also blue color is fun*
>
>

(Ardy, 3/24/2021)

> *We're literally better than the other options and I have so much experience I was like a purple for so many months of my life it was so epic and hot and sexy and I think they should put me back in office*
>
