But, just for interest why would you vote against the a preamble defined by a fucking bunch of lame christians but vote for the republic that allows a 2/3 majority of lame Christians a say so in the President. The GG is the proxy of the Queen, the president will be the proxy of two-thirds of parliment, the Queen is notoriously impartial the parliment is not. At least with a directly elected president the will of the majority, anyone could win, you almost guarenteed in the 'politicians' republic however of getting a arse kissing christian. Are you really an atheist? At least in the present system we did get an atheist as GG, because the PM couldn't care or didn't care. > > Regards, > > d.
