What all would be involved with that one? I wouldn't need to be Online in like IRC would I? Let me know what all I would have to do.

As the political minister, you will get a major block of votes when dealing with alien races.
You would also be the person to turn to if another player wants to deal with aliens (trade, demands, pay a ransom for a captured avatar, etc).
Until aliens do show up, you'll essentially be a senator.
