And, to add a wee bit 'o flamebait....
Doncha think it would be handy to have someone other than your currently elected head of state available to do the glad-handing, opening of hospitals and other such-like? Someone who has been schooled their entire lives to STFU, smile on cue and never make 'off the cuff' malapropisms? That's worth something! ;)
