Chapter 1437 The Chosen One

The Glendon family is also well-known in the history of the Federation, because there have been three presidents in their family.

The first president brought stable and reliable political influence to the family, and a few generations later, in the old Glendon period, he successfully won the election again and became president.

Incredibly, his son then ran for office in what became known as "Glendon Time".

Perhaps during the "Glendon Time" period, the development of the Federation did not show leaps and bounds, but there was no obvious decline, and it remained stable.

Stability means mediocrity, in various senses, but it was a good thing for the Federation at that time.

In fact, it seems very far away, in fact, it was more than ten years ago.

At this time, the old Glandon was 94 years old, and this little "Little Glandon" was 75 years old.

There are also two "old bones" in the entire team, both in their eighties, who belonged to the president of the "Glendon Time" period.

There are gossip that Glendon Jr. is seeking to prepare for the emergence of a fourth president in his family, and this is why he and his father, who is so old, have to come out to work.

Capitalists and political chips will not fall into someone's pocket for no reason. If you don't participate in it and actively seek these benefits for yourself, no one will pay attention to you, let alone give them to you.

When they received Lynch's idea of ​​visiting, they agreed immediately.

Although the current situation of Mr. President is very bad, the politicians at the top can see that Mr. President is actually forced to express his position, and the bipartisan committee will definitely give him some compensation in the future.

Just like the son of the former president, he is now a diplomatic ambassador. When the right time comes and the candidate of the Conservative Party wins the election, he will most likely be transferred back to China to serve as the first minister of the Ministry of International Affairs.

So use this job as a springboard to jump into Congress and become a senator, or like his father, run for president of the Federation.

This is a kind of compensation!
The core of politics is deals and compromises. If Mr. President wants to confront the Duncan family head-on for the high-level positions of the two parties, then he will inevitably have other arrangements after he steps down.

His political influence will not be lost just because he steps down, and with Lynch's support, Mr. President is actually not a "nasty" guy now.

It's just that their visit to Lynch was a bit confusing...

"Does our Mr. President still want to seek re-election under such circumstances?" Little Glendon rubbed his eyes, put on his glasses again, and looked at some newspapers on the table.

Every election year, these campaign teams start to be established, and then join the flourishing world.

Their original intention was to help the Conservative Party candidate to run for the presidency. In addition to the reasons for previous political positions, they believed that the Conservative Party would have a higher probability of taking office.

When people are driving a car on a large road, when facing an intersection, they choose the one on the left, and the result is a traffic jam.

They will be extremely annoyed why they didn't choose the one on the right?
The next time they have to choose, something in their subconscious will kick in and make them more inclined to choose the right side of the road.

The same is true of voters.

If the Conservative Party can't do it, then choose the Progressive Party.

The Progressive Party is not doing very well either, so choose the Conservative Party.

The federal presidential election is constantly hovering in this cycle, coupled with the interference of capital forces, sometimes the election can be predicted!
Old Grandon is too old, but he is in good spirits. This is the benefit of the double blessing of power and wealth.

He can't walk now, his body can't support him to move by himself, so he can only sit in a wheelchair.

At the same time, he also wears sunglasses, because his eyes are aging, and a strong light source will cause terrible damage to his eyes, and even cause him to lose sight.

Even so, his spirit is still very good.

The best medical team in the Commonwealth is at his service, ensuring he has at least five more years to live - according to the leader of his private medical team.

They tried some special drugs in Nagalil, which can effectively slow down the failure of organs, and they have already started injecting him, and the effect is very good.

As for the price and raw materials of this special drug, he never asked.

Just ask, and there will be no burden.

The old man pursed his lips, "It is also allowed for Truman, I heard that they nominated Truman as the second candidate in the party committee."

The other team members were thoughtful, and Little Glendon shook his head with a chuckle, "It's a good idea, but it's too naive."

"Electing for the presidency is not easy with a little money. It requires a lot of money, and Lynch may not be able to hold it..."

At this time, the fate of the shipping group and the military industry group has not been revealed, and Lynch may be the only one who clearly stands on Mr. Truman's side.

This is why they are not very optimistic about Mr. Truman's election. His "support group" is too thin.

While talking, the butler came over and told everyone that Lynch had arrived, and then they met Lynch in the living room.

"I'm under a lot of pressure!" Lynch was well dressed, with a clean smile on his face. He sat on the sofa, not restrained at all, but relaxed.

His eyes swept over the people around him, and he said with a smile, "Every gentleman in this room has paid for the Federation, only me, who is constantly asking for it!"

Little Glendon laughed dryly. It wasn't that Lynch didn't speak well enough, but... he felt that Lynch was acting a little too strong.

Indeed, the lowest rank in this room is also the House of Representatives, and the others are either Senators or the Governor and President. They are indeed the credit for the Federation to be where it is today.

But... When Lynch said these words, he didn't feel his humbleness, which made the effect of these words somewhat discounted.

But at the same time, the attitude he showed gave people some different feelings.

This young man is in some trouble!

At this time, the Blackstone Capital behind Lynch has begun to take shape, and he no longer needs to be as careful as before. The capital game in the capital society is so simple and transparent.

As long as your actions are in line with your values, then whatever you do, you can be forgiven!
"Mr. Lynch, we are very old, and we don't have much time to work every day. Why don't we just start our conversation directly?"

This was said by old Grandon, and he is the only one who is qualified to say that here.

Lynch looked at the age spots that almost covered most of his face, and nodded slightly, "Mr. Truman intends to run for office. We have just set up a campaign office, and now we still lack an experienced team..."

When Lynch said this, Little Glendon glanced at the other person, who stood up and interrupted him, "Sorry, we already have intentions!"

He was rejecting Lynch's invitation. After all, in their view, Truman's chances of winning the election were very small, which was not a good deal for them.

Especially the old Mr. Glendon, he may not be able to survive the next general election. This may be the last general election he participates in. He has to squeeze out his value!

He still has some weight. Some politicians have benefited from him. For example, the Chairman of the Progressive Party Committee, the not tall old man, once received help from Old Glendon.

Now he has to drain his worth and move on to the youngsters in the family to pave the way for them.

Lynch and Truman are not the best choices, so everyone is naturally unwilling to spend more time talking.

At this time, everyone was looking at Lynch. According to the "script", Lynch should express regret now, and then get up and leave.

But Lynch didn't do that, he still sat on the sofa so naturally and relaxed, and asked casually, "Do you know who introduced me here?"

Little Glendon frowned, glanced at his father, and then asked, "Do I know him?"

When the name "Pelius" came out of Lynch's mouth, the whole living room fell silent.

Some young people, young politicians don't understand who Peleus is, but they, who have seen through the federal political arena, know very well.

There are political families in politics, and capitalist families in capital, so the military naturally has military families!
Soldier is a very common and simple title. A corporal can be a soldier, and a lieutenant general can also be a soldier!
Behind Peleus is the attitude of the military. There are even rumors that the federal military has not yet had a real marshal and is just waiting for Peleus.

He is very likely to be the first real marshal in the history of the Federation, and only he has the "password" to become a marshal.

The military supports Mr. Truman, which has to be treated with caution.

The former senator who interrupted Lynch just now smiled and apologized to Lynch, "Sorry, I shouldn't have interrupted you."

Lynch still sat there, raising his eyebrows, "I forgive you."

After a short period of dull atmosphere, the air in the room seemed to start to flow, and the old Mr. Glendon made a request to make a phone call.

He is definitely going to seek proof, and Lynch will naturally not refuse his request.

This is also the reason why Lynch didn't leave. The old Glendon planned to "go all out", so he was the most suitable.

Don't look at these people who have long been far away from the current political arena, but their influence and connections have not been discounted in the slightest.

They may not be able to run by themselves, but when someone becomes "troublesome", they only need to make a phone call, and they can often win some people into their camp.

Coupled with old Mr. Grandon's attitude of risking everything, this is what Lynch and Mr. Truman need!
