Dear Bazz,

.

If the monarchy were an elective position, I'm pretty sure the bookmakers would have Charles on long odds, to say the least.

As a matter of fact, I doubt that any of his siblings would do much better.

Would you put your money on Charles, Bazz ?

.

The vitality of the monarchy, relies on the vitality of a 96 year old woman. Its doomed.

Look at France as a republic example.
Macron is elected President but his party is a minority now with
the left party much bigger and Le Pen's party made large gains.
Now we have what we call a hung parliament with opposition having
the largest number of seats.
That is what happens when you elect a President.
