[color=007236][u][b]President James Kimball- NCR [/b][/u][/color]

“Funny I was gonna offer you the same deal, with my renewed borders of course.” James replied before taking a puff on his cigar “However we both knew this coming.... Even if I hadn’t attacked it’d only be matter before you did.” 

“And don’t give me some bullshit and say you wouldn’t...Sure it may not have been now or even in the next five years but eventually it would happen... NCR stands for everything the Legion is against and for the legion to succeed we would have to destroy.”

“Same goes Vegas and Brotherhood...” James said as he turned to look at the Midwest representatives. “Soon or later the legion will turn on the Cult of the Brotherhood as well.... better to deal with them now whilst they are not properly back to full strength yet.”

"Excuse me." The King obliged,

James turned and faced the “king” who looked like he’d just shit himself. "If the New California Republic eagerly looks to erase the mutual coexistence of the Goodsprings Treaty, then it is declaring its intentions moving forward and painting itself as a greedy warmonger. The Free Economic Zone of the Mojave is predicated on the freedom to carve out one's existence without of fear of being stepped upon by a salivating regime. 

“and the legion isn’t an “salivating regime” Sure Lucius may have changed a few things but they have no future.... without some sort of major restructuring, which won’t be happing the legion will remain an wandering army, raiding and slaving anyone not them and eventually they will turn their attention back to us or you.” 

The King took another deep breath. "If you, President James Kimball, declare open war on Caesar's Legion and invade the lands surrounding the Mojave Desert, Robert House will take that as an affront to peace in the west as a whole and the forces of the F.Z.M will retaliate. If you move forward, you will be endangering your own citizens who eagerly run onto our soil despite your weak attempts to keep them home. If you follow through, you will be pitting your soldiers against thousands of Mark-II securitrons in addition to the Legion forces and whomever else desires to keep the west from being rolled over by your regime."

Finally, the King placed his final words of the speech. "So, if I were you, President Kimball...I would choose your next actions very carefully...The F.Z.M values preserving balance in the region far more highly than pandering to the average NCR citizen. You do not want the collective efforts of the west to point in your direction." 

“Are you seriously siding with the fucking legion? Very uncool Mr King or should I say Mr Puppet.” James replied  “these are people who’d be hanging you up on a cross if they could have their way and If the “collective efforts of the west” as you call them gang up and destroy the NCR... You do realize will be next?” 

James briefly looked at Hopeway who simply nodded “You what fuck it do... unlike my father or the president before me I haven’t actually been stopping people from coming to Vegas but if you wage war on the NCR the border will immediately close and the money will come to an halt..“

[i]Probably will survive but not much more.[/i] 

“Similarly none of my troopers will be going anywhere near Vegas or the Mojave for that matter...  so if you wish to fight us you will have come to us.... Knowing and willing leaving Vegas open for an attack by any number of people.”

[i]Including those who I hire... [/i]

“Regardless of what actually happens though I doubt NCR citizens will be wanting to go Vegas afterwards “James chuckled as he took a puff on his cigar. "So go ahead, Bankrupt your city."
