Shyplasterlord

u/Shyplasterlord (born January 23, 1984) is a Delaware senator, Senate Majority Leader, he also was the Secretary of Energy under the Fraklin Reynolds administration. He was also briefly the Democratic nominee for President of the United States in the 2036 election, before he was forced to drop out and was replaced with progressive colleague u/JaytheZoomster. Shy was previously a member of another Presidential Cabinet under the presidency of Plastic Ramen.

Senator of Delaware
As Senator of Delaware, Shyplasterlord helped to pass many pieces of legislation, most of which were highly bipartisan. During Fraklin Reynold's second run for presidency and along with fellow bipartisan colleague Leavemealone201 he cofounded the "Dems for Frak" caucus of the Democratic party, one of the most divisive and controversial political caucuses in recent history--and a move which soon led to a split in the Democratic Party and the formation of a new one deemed "The Progressive Party" by its incumbents. Just as Shy helped to reform the Democratic Party he also helped to bring the Progressives and Democrats together under the wing of a bipartisan caucus that they are still operating under to this day.

Presidential Campaign
In preparation for the 2036 Presidential Election, Shy gained the Democratic Coalition's nomination with u/leavemealone201 as his running mate before Shy subsequently dropped out and was replaced by Progressive candidate u/JaytheZoomster. He has expressed delight at the possibility of running again in the future, both as a potential VP nomination and as a Presidential one.

Political Views
Shy has classified himself as a "moderate leftist" who supports many progressive policies but takes a more centrist stance in regards to how he approaches these ideas. Some of his biggest priorities include implementing a healthcare system that allows for a public and private option, banning the death penalty, and raising taxes on the rich. He also has quite a few conservative views such as a pro-life mentality and a desire to protect the right to gun ownership. Some of his principles (such as his opposition to nuclear energy) remain somewhat controversial, but he generally presents himself as someone who is willing to see and understand both sides of a debate in order to come to a compromise.
