| Message | "An elected council is far more democratic than electing one person. By that logic we might as well scrap the National Directory and put all power into the Head of State. Democracy is about the dispersement of power, not concentrating it." -Alexander Pamenev, Revolutionary Socialist Spokesman on Internal Affairs |
