4th of July?

I would love to see an election themed update. This is really the first Presidential Election that has taken place since the game grew to include mini events like it does now.

I feel like there's a lawsuit in here somewhere

CAVEAT: The statements below are based on what I learned in one year of law school -- which was, admittedly, about a half-century ago. (Actually, 43 years. But "about a half-century" has a lot more punch). We were still using carbon paper, and typewriters had ribbons. :)


I'm not sure about a lawsuit. I can't imagine that whatever they do with the questline could be much different in tone (or level of satire) than what they did on the show itself, so they wouldn't need to worry about libel/slander.

As for making money off his persona, a president is not part of a trademarked brand. He's not copyrighted. He's a public servant. We hired him. The game -- and the show -- can't use a private citizen celebrity's name, but that's because the celebrity makes money off their name (as do their sponsors, their agents, and a whole lot of other folks) ... Hence, the show has "Paris Texan" instead of "Paris Hilton" ...

The minute he became president, Bush handed over the right to any member of the public to make money -- whether from t-shirts, coffee mugs, or video games. He belongs to us. (We're still paying for our Secret Service to take care of him for us, and keep him from danger. )

On the other hand, I could very well be wrong. Hopefully, EA has attorneys who actually stayed in law school and know what they're doing. (Although it could be argued that anyone who knows what they're doing would NOT stay in law school. )

My dim understanding of this issue is that in the U.S. it’s really complicated, in part because it’s largely based on a mix of state law (which naturally varies with jurisdiction) and common law.

I want more American Flags

More as in quantity or more as in selection?

I'd be okay if they added the

Gadsden Flag

or the Betsy Ross flag

So there's no sign of an Independence Day update yet. Maybe next Wednesday or Thursday?

Don't forget a Fleur de lis flag since it was basically the French that secured American independence.
