No submission from ABJ or Kelly Kopp-Schuetz? Would be nice to see more female candidates.
 
As a Trust Protector, my opinion on how how to conquer the world is irrelevant. My only role would be represent the wishes of the Masternodes and to help prevent the TP position from being corrupted and abused. I don't view the role of Trust Protector as an active role, but rather a reactive role. I have heard a few of the candidates running for the TP role discuss their ideas on strategy, reviewing the actions of DCG, and other such active actions, and that concerns me. An active TP board could easily be used to force the agenda of a few people onto DCG and the trust, and may cause significant harm to Dash before the Masternode network has time to respond. One of my duties as a Trust Protector would be to stymie attempts of action that weren't specifically and directly called for by the Masternodes.

However, personally speaking, I think the way for Dash to conquer the world is through diligent perseverance of both hard work and constant innovation. We are in a marathon, not a sprint. Becoming the world currency is a war of attrition that we're especially well built for, it's just going to take time and patience. And when you factor in Dash Ventures and other such investment vehicles that will inevitably arise, we will have such a powerful cycle of positive reinforcement that we simply can't be stopped.

My plan for Dash to serve the world is to continue building out our decentralized infrastructure that will make everything we offer extraordinarily resilient and accessible. While the majority of our competitors were only designed for a single purpose and anything they do beyond that purpose will essentially be a hack job, the fact that Dash is DAO allows us to to offer an unlimited number of products and services that all tie back in to our blockchain, providing not just a free, permissionless, and immutable currency, but an entire global ecosystem that is free, permissionless, and immutable. Dash will serve the world by allowing all individuals the ability to take back control of their lives.
 

Yeah, but I'm not coming at this from a feminist point of view. A woman won't get a sympathy vote from me just because of her sex, she still has to have good morals. I simply believe, the more (good) women we have in this space, the more balance and strength we gain. We've seen it in the gaming industry and I have no reason to doubt the same will happen here.
 
@DashWatchTeam Can you put a separator after Ash Francis' name and before "Discord"? Looks like Discord is part of his name and none of the other candidates are listed like this.
