| - Kristian Donson Election: June 2582 Age: 59 Party Wing: Market-Liberal Fiscal: Liberal Social: Conservative Endorsements: Fieren Goldmark, Maria Snowdon, Luanna Silverton, Telamon Minarchist Party Profession: Property Tycoon, Philosopher Religious Beliefs: Atheist Born into a lower middle-class family of civil servants, Donson rebellled against his workaholic parents with a vibrance and attitude for innovation. By the age of 24, Donson was one of Migadon's youngest entrepreneurs, and something of a playboy in the local society. Belatedly regretting not taking a university education, Donson went to university at the age of 30 to study Philosophy. His education inspired him to write the Migadon Times bestseller, "Conservative Freedoms", which layed out his ideology of 'responsible liberty'. Acknowledging the lack of middle-class centrist parties with a secular bent, Donson invited several key figures associated with the centre of politics to a convention in Migadon that went on to found the Radical Party. At odds with the majority of his fellow party members idelogically, it was Donson's vibrance and energy that won him the place of party leader, despite his concession to the conservative right on many issues. Despite a rebellious left wing of the party, Donson managed to maintain control of the party for 10 years, with the support of Luanna Silverton. He was noted to be sceptical and distrustful of others and their intentions, hence never appointing a deputy leader. After his massive defeat in the 2560 election, Donson resigned and returned to business, although still played a central role in the periphery of the party, considered something of a hero by the party's right-wing. As the Radicals under Goldmark shift closer to the right, Donson declared his intention to stand as their candidate in the next presidential election. In June 2582, Donson won a massive landslide victory, easily defeating the incumbent TNP president Roy Cropper to over 50% of the vote without a need for a run-off election. Donson promised to embrace the classical liberal policies promoted by Radical Party leader Fieren Goldmark, while maintaining his maverick and controversial individualism as well. VICTORIOUS: 63,834,862 votes - 51.28% - endorsed by the Democratic Capitalist Party, the Telamon Minarchist Party and the Humanic Republicanist Party
