It's a new day
2008-11-13
It's 2028, and Nguyen Thi Hoi has been elected president of the
Bohemian-Moravian Republic (Bohmor, for short). Hoi, born of a
Czech mother and Vietnamese father, won 95% of the
Vietnamese vote and the support of 43% of whites, 66% of
Romany, 78% of Jews, 89% of Muslims, and 66% of the under-30
vote. He ran on a change agenda, promising to reintegrate the
country into the European community after years of rightwing
imperialism and financial profligacy. His victory is the most
significant event in Bohmor politics since 2008, when the
greencard law led to a historic rise in immigration. Eight years
later the name of the country was changed to Bohmor, when it
was deemed that the "Czech" Republic was ethnically insensitive
and no longer reflected the melting-pot culture. Although Hoi
won only 52% of the popular vote in this year's election, he
vowed to be the president of all Bohmorans.
