We continue to get a few fools pushing the republic barrow, but why? Can it really be they see some advantage for Oz, or do they see something in it personally for themselves.

Obviously the most successful republic the USA must be their goal, it surely could not be the catastrophe that is Italy, or the approaching catastrophe of France.

The strange thing they don't notice is that many in the US really want to be a monarchy, with a dynasty lasting centuries. This is obvious if you look at their recent history.

They tried to do it with the Kennedys, only assassination & poor flying stopped that.

They were well on their way with the Bushes, but Jeb really wasn't up to it, but even then it was close.

Then they tried it with the Clintons, & came close again.

Now some clowns are suggesting Michelle Obama should run for president.

I can't imagine what would make anyone think that being the wife of an ex president qualifies someone to be president. Surely it can only be the desire to set up a dynasty that would make anyone think so.

Unlike our own most successful monarchy, with a king or queen as a ceremonial & perhaps emotional figurehead, in a republic the president is really critical to the nations success or failure.

The fact that the US almost got Hillary, a failure at everything she has done, & suggestions that Michelle be considered should scare any thinking people the hell away from thoughts of a republic for Oz. Anyone suggesting such should be viewed with considerable suspicion.

As long as we don't end up a republic, because it would definitely be the end. As you say, the U.S. is the best, but that is not saying much.
