| Message | The Supreme President must be able to choose his/her own cabinet so they he/she can work work with whoever they want. This system has been mostly successful and we question why it should be changed. FIP Minority Leader Hugh Bieler |

| Message | We find it appalling, but we must agree with our FIP counterparts in opposing this measure, as we did last time it was proposed. This is an unnecessary breach of centuries of tradition, and is opposed. Julia Taylor, Inner-Party Leader |
