Lamport is a Republican angel sent by god to bring peace, liberty and free markets to the United States. He is known to wax poetic about his first term fight to broker a cross-party compromise in the House and pass the first balanced federal budget in 17 years: he was elected to succeed Butterlands as Speaker in the next Congress. During his second term, Lamport enacted financial reform, ended the requirement to print money to fund the deficit, passed a constitutional amendment to ban the draft, abolished capital punishment and asserted the right of Congress to authorize military action.

He was nominated to run against Senator NotAName in the following election and won: as Chairman, Lamport led the Republican Party to its first federal majority. In the Senate, he re-enfranchised felons who complete their sentence or parole, banned civil forfeiture, repealed the tip tax, made daylight saving time permanent, recognized territorial self-determination and closed Guantanamo Bay. Lamport challenged Governor IndyPrez’s socialist “New Democratic Business Free Market Stimulus Act,” something he called the “property theft bill,” and won in the Supreme Court: it was deemed unconstitutional. When Senator Apex was shot in December, he was elected Acting President pro tempore of the Senate in his absence and he was elected Minority Leader in the next Congress. Lamport was also nominated and confirmed as Secretary of the Treasury in the first month of his Senatorial term where he helped write and pass the second balanced federal budget in a row.

During his time in the House and Senate, Lamport stopped more than $3.2 trillion in new tax and spending.

After six months in Congress and two months in Cabinet, Lamport sought the Republican nomination to succeed Politophile as President and won.
