Lt. Col. Daniel F. Hunter: Rebuilding The Country

Chap.30 Finale "Reaffirming The Monroe Doctrine"

    Like I've said before to many others that in order to regain trust in most of the world, we have to first show of how the biggest world power is back and ready to protect our Latin comrades down south. The South American countries were in the process of rebuilding after the world wide Uprising or were already rebuilt and were very eager to await our return to the Monroe Doctrine. As I sit here still in the Gray House, I was still thinking about both the Pacific and Atlantic fleets if they needed more funding because I was still very worried about the Navy not having that much funding, but I was assured that the Navy is already secured and I didn't have to worry. MacArthur placed before me a document that detailed a Defense Scheme of the Rockies just incase if we were to get overrun again by the Union, I immediately put this defense scheme now named "Plan R" into the works, hopefully, we won't have to activate it. I still however know that there is going to be another war sooner or later but I always wanted to be prepared and ready to fight at any time, more documents came through, most of them were about economics and budgets of the military. After reviewing much of these, I placed them down and decided to go ahead with rebuilding the Monroe Doctrine, for this, I would need more support from the Legion. I'll be honest, most of the Legion was made of Isolationists and those who just wanted America to be left out of foreign affairs, I shared this concern as the did the great General and late President George Washington, I promised the nation that the Monroe Doctrine would be the only sphere of influence, I also promised that we would never get into another war on foreign soil anywhere in the world.

    I was very assertive in enacting everything to save America from insidious forces from within, I motioned for Kirkland to come over to my desk, I wanted a report on the status of the Reduction Pogrom. He said to me that there were now over two million cultists who were taken into custody, many of them had done rituals and killed many innocent people to honor a made up childish invisible imagination of something that never existed. I know most would question my religion if I even believed in a spiritual deity but I will tell most this, ever since I saw that Blue Suited Menace and the dreams that I have had about him, I am questioning most of the religions if what they say is the truth about everything or if its just made up stories to bludgeon everyone into accepting the idea of a deity that doesn't exist. Still this is the thing that is paralyzing me on Religion, but if what the Blue Suited Menace says is the actual truth about everything and what our existence really is about, then there is no reason to continue with everything if this guy is controlling every single aspect of life as we know it. Anyways, I hope of what I just wrote down is not the truth that I am and many others aren't searching for, I had to focus on what is happening in the present, like of how we are going to start up the Monroe Doctrine again.

    Everyday diplomats from all countries came in to see everything and how relations are improving with the Union, the Universal Union sent diplomats to Richmond and London to ease the pain of the aftermath of the Uprising, even though the Combines Overworld is in a different dimension, the portal storms were still raging for which they acted like a door way which made communication with the Union easier than using runners to get information. After meeting with the diplomats from Brazil and Argentina, I was in high spirits as we continue to improve relations with our Latin comrades in the south, the goal for the Monroe Doctrine was simple: Protect the Americas from any invasion or foreign involvement in any war. Every now and then I would get an update on the Reduction Pogrom, I would make sure that all of Americas enemies were prosecuted to the full extent of the law what ever means necessary, I also signed into law that anything or anyone displaying anti-American virtues is to be arrested and to be tried within the Supreme Court. I also expanded the Supreme Court so that incase if terrorists or renegades are to be tried for treason, the Supreme Court can handle all traitors and can tried them in the court of law, there would also be military tribunals in order to route out all traitors. No matter what happens, I just can not wait to see the day that Communism burns and is shoveled into its grave, I gave more orders to the Legion that it is the soul duty of fellow Americans to make sure that the Red Menace is destroyed without mercy. After that rant, I decided to keep focusing on the diplomats, Eire was still keeping relations with us since the IRA had helped us through these turbulent times. At 5:00 PM, I had to give a speech to announce the Monroe Doctrine, I would also begin to work on redesigning the national flag, even though we've went through already at least three designs, I wanted a better design for the national flag.
