On Lisa's world, the United States has started to become obsessed with choosing their next leader. Mobs stand out in front of public buildings waving signs, the candidates go on television to insult and yell at each other, and for some reason, the only people considered seem to be men.

I don't think I'm ever going to stop preferring monarchies. They're so much less messy.

...They choose that sort of thing now?

[embersandashes]

Here they do.

[croibhristeoir]

I wonder if that's a common thing. It seems odd, but...I suppose times change. I assume warfare and the like can't possibly decide everything in the time period I'm in now.

[embersandashes]

Sometimes it's succession, not warfare.

[sandinmyboots]

This is why we use dictatorships! With us as the leaders, of course.

[embersandashes]

I prefer monarchies.

Oh! What about gods? That's working pretty well over here!

[embersandashes]

My experience with gods hasn't been good.

[energybends]

I prefer no leader. A peaceful conversation any course of action among all the people where you lay down the pros and cons and then you go do it.

[embersandashes]

You're ridiculous.

[energybends]

What? Why? It works.

[embersandashes]

Maybe if your "country" has ten citizens.

[madeitsquare]

You do understand the yelling and insulting isn't supposed to be part of the procedure, right?

[embersandashes]

Then the politicians running are all in violation and shouldn't even be considered.

[madeitsquare]

Ach, does that really happen? They don't make presidents like they used to.

[embersandashes]

They were better in the past?

[papillio_tempestatis]

The problem is there isn't much you can do about a bad monarch except have a revolution. I assume they must have something they can do if it turns out they made the wrong choice there?

[embersandashes]

There isn't that I'm aware of. Everything I've seen indicates that the only thing you can do with a bad president is to wait until their time is up.

[papillio_tempestatis]

Hm. Well, you don't have to wait until they're dead for that, do you?

[embersandashes]

No, just four to eight years.

Owning the country's a matter of a popularity contest?

[embersandashes]

Essentially.

[material_guy]

Now there's an idea I can get on board with!

[embersandashes]

It's reckless.
