Hello everyone

So once again I want to thank all who have voted for me

Greetings All Asgardians I just wanted to thank all who have voted for in this first Parliamentary Election . While It has been a long hard fought endeavor, It has been a Honor win or lose. My Platform has stayed the same through out . Thought I have stated it in different way's to try and better put a cross my meaning and what I stand for . That all I can do at this juncture. And again I thank you all

Ricky S Sickles

MP Candidate D1

Hello my Fellow Citizens

Yes

We as Asgardians do want to generate INCOME. But how you ask ,well I have a few Ideas

One is Vertical Farmings Set up in various areas of each district with supply agreements with various stores ,even Co-OPs

Another are Solar Fields owned by Asagrdians which employ Asgardians

For our Computer eng's I'm quite sure that they can come up with a web server such as goggle or explorer  which make millions from advertising

These are some of the  ways to generate Income

I just want to Thank every one who has voted for me thus far. I know that many have sent notifications that they have voted for me .And I have tried to thank as many as I can get to .All I can say is that if elected I will do my best to govern . I want to see Asgardia become The first nation to place Science first , But remember Science takes money .And money is created by the sell of goods and services .That will be a main focus of Parliament at it's first meeting in June. It's a process that takes time . And I'm sure that it will be hard but not impossible . As MPs we have to be realistic in our approach .

There well be disagreements, That only natural due to the varied cultures and political systems we all come from . But in every society there is common ground which creates common bonds . And our differences will what will make us strong

So again I thank you for your votes and most of all your support . For with out that I would not be where I am .

And if elected I will do my beat to serve all Asgardia

Thank you from my Heart

Greeting fellows Citizens    As we all know the Primaries are over and now the serious business of choosing your Representatives to Parliament   begins . And I ask again for your support . I believe that Asgardia will be a educational force in the future of our Solar system . Many of us running for Parliament may not see the first ark platforms to be launch do to our place in this historic venture . the building of the first off world society. This will take many years to do .But how well it goes will be determined by what the first Parliamentarians do . This is a volatile time in history .World powers nashing their teeth shaking fists at each other like children on the play ground not thinking about what their actions could do . Asgardia is a nation that wants to keep from the fray Asgardia is a nation of Science and Learning . Of Freedom for it's Citizens to be their very best ,now and in the future . Yes Asgardias goal is to protect the Earth . But at the same  we have to work hard so as not to be pulled into grounder politics. To be in Parliament is an honor ,but that doesn't compare to the hard work that must be done . The work of protecting not only the earth but our own people .To see to it that they are well Educated ,Housed ,Clothed ,and Feed .And provided Medical care when they need it at all stages in the lifes . We as members of Parliament must insure that the rights of the Citizens are protected .That Government follows the Laws passed by Parliament according to the Constitution .. This I will do to the best of my ability. my time in office will be transparent  Where it doesn't cause Danger to the Nation or it's Citizens  those that have read my Platform know where I stand . and I ask others to read also and if you agree whit what I stand for then I ask for your vote       https://asgardia.space/en/elections-districts/English/

To all my Asgardian friends

I Thank you for your votes I know many of you live outside my area . But have chosen the English District .And I thank you for that . But let me remind you as well as all Asgardia that as a MP my job and my enthusiasm for what we all want to achive doesn't exstend only to  District 1 . My work and my heart are for all of Asgardia and our people no matter where they live .

In June the first meeting of the Parliament take place and will be very important . In this frist meeting the MP's will have to appoint heads' of ministry's. they will also have to start work on setting laws according to the Constitution . They will also have to make clear a BILL of RIGHTS for the citizens of Asgardia .

And they will also and most importantly have to enumerate Clearly the Powers of Government as set forth in the Constitution .While these are writen in the Constitution many have a hard time under standing due to language and translation

They will also have to determen how to fund the government

You have noticed that I ues the word they and not we .That because voting has not ended yet

and one never knows how ones fortunes may be in such matters

So again I thank all who have voted for me

VR Use for Government  Business and Education

I see that VR will be mostly be used by The Asgardian Government at First .

But just how fast it will be utilized is unknown at this .

I believe MR. Winters. MR. Wong and MR. Cheeseman are on the right path at the moment .

I realize Ross is rethinking some things over ,but I hope he will be involved .

I'd am suggesting that these three  work together on this ,I know it won't be done till some time after the elections.

If not the three mentioned above .I would at least hope one of them would assemble a team to work on this issue. If it's not being done already . Given the information flow

And even then some of our office holders wont be able to afford the equipment ( my have to do a fund campaign) .

VR will have to connected to all the different Ministries In order to conduct even the smallest day to day business  Reports , Inquiries, even customer service .

VR will also over time become an integral part of Asgardias educational institutions not only for the first Asgardians to improve their understanding of space , but also of science in general

Yes it will be a slow process, but not impossible.

Without VR integration Asgardia will be at a stand still for the most part.

Well, I've never really been one to blog, but I figure that introductions are in order.  I'm an engineer and musician who looks forward to a future of peace and equality.  I don't want to run for any parliament position.  I simply want to work and strive for a great society that I can be proud of.

Greeting Fellow Asgardians

My name is Ricky Scott Sickles. From Moraine Ohio USA District 1

This election is very important .Because who we elect now will set the frame work for many years to come

I was asked if I was going to run for Parliament .I had to think this over .Would I be one of the many who stood by while others did the work of constituting a first of it kind government . Or would I be one of the few who did work to constitute this new government and help set or fledgling nation on a strait course

There are many issues and problems to be hammered out in order for Asgardia to survive past it's first year .I don't run for myself ,but for all Asgardians and for our descendants.

I'm not running to be popular. I'm doing this because I believe in Asgardia and its' people

My platform is one of Defense ,Education ,and Nutrition.

I'll start with my last first Nutrition . Nutrition is very important to a healthy and strong nation. And all Asgardians should have access to food the will keep us and our children strong.

One way is to keep GMOs out of our food chain as much as possible while still here on earth. One way to do this is to set up gardens that grow non-GMO heirloom vegetables and fruits. These Gardens can also sublimit our economy through trade ether locally or internationally .Part of the money made from trade(10%) goes to the government and can be used for research into better growing technics on earth and space aquaculture and aquiculture .The rest of the income goes to the farmers as ether Solar's or in their native currencies or both

My next is Education

A poorly educated people is a conquered people , Education for all Asgardians must be freely accessible from kindergarten to university. It has been shown that children even in kindergarten can learn on a Second grade level .Many of the smartest people came from such learning systems in the 1800s and early 1900s .If possible ,where there are larger concentrations of our citizens we should have our own schools , and where they are more spread out, have online schooling .And all schools should surpass local standards and be accredited all the way to doctorate level .These are items to be worked out by the appointed education minister . I suggest basing our schools on the UN international school system .Asgardians would have free access while any none Asgardians would pay a fee to be used to pay teachers and improve our system of learning

Lastly Defense

This encompasses many areas ,from Physical to Cyber . And should not be taken lightly. Even though we may not have a Active defense force on earth .We will still need to have volunteers' to train as first responders . This will be an important role for Asgardians as we build and establish our reputation as a space nation. This training should  follow closely the Chinese and American model of giving aid and self defense. Cyber Defense is also very important to our nations safety, due to the sensitive nature of some information which must be kept digitally. Such as citizen IDs , banking system, research ect...

Other aspects of defense are training in Unmanned systems which can also generate income through crop and ocean analysis, UAVs can also be used in search and rescue operations .

Thank You

Hi everyone this is my first blog post so please bear with me. First off im an proud asgardia but it means to me is to promote & support new ideas , respect everyone , and prepare for foreseeable future...

People may have ideas & plans right that you dont agree with but it can be change in the future with enough votes and changing of people needs and new technology...

I'm also an transhumanist and I do believe in those technology ( like the movie " Ghost in the shell " ) which I also believe also will aid us to last long enough to atleast step on the complete space station and far out travel amongst the stars

Ahahahaha maybe im thinking too far out but this is how i feel ...  I made this drawing picturing myself going for goal .

Ahahahaha maybe im thinking too far out but this is how i feel ...  I made this drawing picturing myself going for goal .

I have only lived thirty years... And yet in that time I feel as though I have accomplished wonders. Looking back, I wonder how I came to be where I am today. I remember the arduous journey, I see the results now, but I still stand in awe I have made so much progress... I have traveled the world, thanks to my father doing security work for the US embassies while in the US Marine Corps, completed my black belt in Tai-Kwon-Do after beginning training in the art at eight years old, free-climbed an eight-hundred-foot tall stone spire called by locals the Rock of Yorin with my father, friends, and other family, won several small local surfing competitions in California and Hawaii, took a career in logistics as a Logistician and Optimizer, study Aerospace Engineering and Advanced Applied Physics at the best school a guy could ever hope to attend, achieved my A- and B-License with the United States Parachute Association for skydiving along with Coach Rating, about to embark on the beginnings of the Seven Summits Expedition next year after a month of mountaineering training in Iceland, and much more.

How does anyone do so much in so little time? Persistence and family and friends kicking me forward every step of the way. Between all of my parents' marriages I have eight brothers and five sisters. Between the guys, growing up was a healthy competition. Blood, sweat, and tears were the currency spent to achieve the next objective.  Having a father who could be hard and unforgiving at exactly the right times and kind and caring at other times gave me the confidence to pursue any damn thing I fancy to master. Impossible is a reckless word; the earlier it is abandoned the better. This little blog post is a tribute to the time and care invested in me by my parents, siblings, friends, teachers, instructors, role models, and mentors growing up and now.

I thank each and every one of you for making me who I am today. I would've stumbled and been lost long ago without you. It would take more space than I have here to list you all, but you know who you are. From the very core of my being: Thank You!!! Blue skies my friends, and may we forever reach higher together.

Guidelines for Asgardia defense

By Asgardian Ricky Scott Sickles

Defense Strategist

Thisis a basic guide for setting up Asgagrdia's Protection needs. Even though We are just at the beginning we as a nation have to start thinking of our nation's future.

First thing that has to be considered is number of trained personal that will be needed to begin with .

The first Item is Head of Nation and  embassy Defense .

These will have to be trained individuals, which could take up to six months for the first detachment. Made up of    Twenty-four personal, broken down in teams of eight. Eight hours on sixteen off ,for sleep ,recreation, and additional training.  Deployment will be one year for the first detachment at which time training needs to be started for replacements .Since all citizens who are not in governmental duty, will rotate through the Defense Force.

Training should be in the areas of combat arms and tactical defense and extraction of embassy staff in case of an emergency.

Next is combat medical training in order to treat and save any wounded till they can get to a safe hospital area, whether or not it's Asgardian or host country .

Next area of training must be in PublicAffairs/Relations. Asgardian Personal should always present Them self's ascultured and polite , but not superior to others .

Other areas of training will have to be in cyber security in order to stop intrusion of Asgardia's secure communications and files ,we don't want a wikies leaks..

In order to conduct training ,The government of Asgardia will have to set up a facility that will have to cover at least ten square miles

One way to do this is to buy or rent areas of a friendly nations bases .This is something that many earth nations have done , mostly from the United States. Training can be done by host nation.

The next area of concern is Pilot Training, from helicopters, UAVs/RCAVs  to embassy jets .

This would be the first faze to later be followed by Space flight training.

For this we will need ten permanent personal to start ,since pilots take the most to train. As Asgardia expands the needs of the fledgling fleet will change as we grow .

As will the needs of the Defense Force as we add more Embassy's ,and as we expand into space and beyond the earth'sorbit.

Defense ,Energy and Prosperity .  I'm campaigning for security  and defense  Granted some may not agree but it is some thing that is needed so I am asking for your vote .Its not about power but about protection of our people and Nation .I know that many of us will not be here to see the settlement of our first Platform . but now is the time to start planning for the future of how We as a People will survive .When you have to content with the jealousy of other Earthly nations

Hello my friends in India I ask that you go to my Blog .Many of India s Asgardians are Scientists .

From Bio-Chemists to Electrical engineers, along with Doctors and such .

But this massage isn't just for them but for all Asgadians of India and Asia . As much as we want a peaceful nation we still have to guard our resources form those who would take them .

This includes our Scientists, not just those in power.

For without them and the work that they will be doing ,we wouldn't have a Asgardia.

Hello Fellow Asgardians My name is Ricky Sickles. And I'm asking for your vote for Strategist. I'v spent most of my life in protection of the US. And now I would like to do the same for my new nation. I have experience in Defense, Public Relations, Field Medic(both Air-force and Army), Project management, and Contract Negotiations in Iraq. These are skills that will be valuable in dealing with our neighbors here on Earth and in space .One has to know how the people your dealing with think and what motivates them in order to get the results that are best for Asgardia

A good Strategist knows that in order to archive a goal They have to put together a team ,that can work on the different areas of a project in order to make it work

The Strategists job is to make sure that his team or teams don't lose sight of what their working toward.

Also as a leader a strategist has to be able to listen to others, and admit if their wrong.

But most importantly ,a Strategist must give credit where it is due because no one person can do it alone

I want to see Asgardia succeed not just for us new citizens but also for our Descendants and their future well being

So I humbly ask for your vote

Part two of campaign Message

In just the passed couple of weeks . The US government has finalized The creation of it's newest Armed Service Branch since the mid 1940s. The US Space Corps ,an off shoot of the Air Force. With this the first of a number of such services to be formed by the technically advanced country's of Earth. We of Asgardia Must take our safety and defense seriously or our new Nation won't last longer then the first missile sent our way with out a defensive force of our own. as much as I'd like to see Asgardia remain demilitarized ,this will not happen.

Asgardia is unique in that we are a door way into space not only for our own citizens   ,but also for corporations and  nations without the means to launch their own rockets or train their own astronauts.

With the USAs creation of this planets first Space Force. Many of the technically advanced nations of the earth well follow suit. By saying that's it's for it's own protection from space threats such as asteroids'. Some will use the excuse that it to fight terrorism or to protect themselves from attacks from other nations. but lastly Aliens will be the reason for such foully.

In realty it's about control  of the earth and its people.

Yes we will need a security force as stated in my last Blog. not just for protection of Asgardia .

But more importantly our freedom.

Our Freedom To Exist, Our Freedom to Evolve and Spread out to the Stars. Not to be held back by  jealousy because the individual country's of earth couldn't work for any thing coming close to what we have achieved .

Not as one country, but as many peoples of many countries to create a new Nation This is why I'm campaigning for Security Strategist. So I'm asking for your vote
