BTW, just on the War Party and the election of MrBaggins as Chairman. As the founder of the WP, I didn't set out to kill democracy by having too much democracy. This is what would happen if everyone had to vote on every single little detail. I believe, and stand by it, that the WP did not need to waste the forums time, space or efforts to run an election thread for one candidate. And since political parties operate OUTSIDE OF THE CONSTITUTION, there quite simply is nothing you can do about it. I never heard of any complaining by WP members about MrBaggins taking over as chairman.

So would you like to kill democracy by having too much democracy? Remember, as a politician you should know this rule for democracies:

"Society is stupid. If they feel like they're in a democracy, then they believe they are."
