> [@emily223](#): > > Well, yeah kind of, but as for me winning; I don’t really care? This is not a game lol. I am right, I mean if you would just fully read all of it; then you may just realize the truth. I don’t have all week. I made a simple point: if you have a monarch who is powerful and involved in national government in a major way, the monarch is no longer a unifying symbol who is above politics. You want a monarch who is both, but it doesn’t work that way. Do you have an answer or a reason you think I’m wrong, or are you going to quote Benjamin Disraeli at me?
