Robert Schlesinger was chosen to by President Papillion because he was a libertist and Papillion felt that was an important piece of his strategy. He also knew Schlesinger was a career politician, hard-nosed, but knew he could be persuaded to fight heavily for others' policies. Schlesinger wasn't known for being an activist or die-hard on any particular policies, but that his posture was strict and policy knowledge was in-depth.

Impeachment of Tommy Papillion
Schlesinger was chosen for his loyalty to Papillion and its cause. He was involved in various conversations of a criminal nature and was being spied on by the administration. He secretly coordinated with the Speaker of the Council of Delegates to impeach President Papillion. The vote did not pass and he continued serving as Prime Minister yet was removed from the inner circle of the executive branch.
