Voting deadline: June 2661
Description[?]:
| Our constitutional constitutional; which fell in the rise of the extrene parties, must be restored not only to symbolise regaining stable political climate but to introduce an apolitical head of state, which offiice is not held by a politician. It is vital to our society and our culture that our country see's the monarchy re-established. Faith needs to be restored in the people and for the people of Keymon. Our party has contributed alot to maintaining the Monarchy and the free-market over the years, and we hope that we can come to a consensus and keep politics out of hte office of HoS. |

| Message | "We support this bill to some amount. The Head of State should be preserved and contain officials out of the royal family, but yet we hope it'll keep its traditional power and tasks aswell." --KRIP. |

| Message | This is absurd. Why exactly are we negating all the progress we have mad to establish a Republic? |
| Date | 23:53:52, October 21, 2008 CET | From | Libertarian Transhumanist Party | To | Debating the Restoring the Crown |
| Message | The Libertarian Transhumanist party does not support this bill. Monarchies have failed consistently throughout history, the Republic is truly stable. |

| Message | Republics are truely stable?! I think you might be confusing the two. ((I have little time to argue monarchy's case at this moment: Here a little insight; stability is not reliant on whether a country is a monarchy or a republic but rather on how its government chooses to function. Whether the head of state is of a royal house or whether they are a politician does not affect the freedoms of the citizens. Republics however are much more nutorious in recent history for being unstable, as the Head of state is a political puppet of the government, it is far easier for parties to manipulate a HoS which they would find difficult in a monarchy as the head of state is apolitical One other thing; monarchy=regression and republic=progress??? No, in fact, many monarchies that have been abolished due to fascist coup's have been restored, itsthe most obvious thing to do as it symbolises the end of the dictatorship and the returning to the origional ways. The ones that haven't want to. E.g. Serbia (considering), Georgia (considering), Great Britain, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Belgium, Czechslovakia (sort of), Norway, Thailand, Spain etc there are much more. History manifests that countries often turn to crowns after the overthrowal in coups etc)) |

| Message | ((If you will put some arguments forward of how a republic is more stable, I would be glad to hear them. I woulld be most certainly happy to give you my arguments for monarchical stability once you have put forward your own. |

| Message | There is a reason why Keymon is currently going through its darkest hour: While SOME monarchies have failed, the Keymon monarchy has not. For centuries, the Grand Duke and the Assembly served as protectors and defenders of Keymon\'s precious democracy and freedom. The only time prior to this that the Grand Duke was ousted, Keymon fell victim to a dictatorship alliance of Fascists and Communists, who plundered the land and slaughtered the people. The only time prior to this that the Assembly was disbanded, Keymon fell victim to war and invasion from without and communist insurrection from within. Now, the fascists and communists have struck again and have abolished both. Keymon has no protector of our freedom in the form of a Grand Duke, and it has no defender of our liberty in the form of a democratically-elected Assembly. It is high time we all took stands as men, and not cowardly, self-enriching communist Labour Party members or sniveling, butchering fascist Classical Liberal Party members, but as men of Keymon, proud and true, in love with our freedom, our democracy, and our traditions. At no time in Keymon\'s history - NEVER - has a republic or an end to democracy helped us. And, once again, our people are suffering because of yet another alliance of fascists and communists. Keymon will prevail. -- Algernon Rufus |

| Message | I do not need luck. I need time. Given time, the people of Keymon have shaken off every rapist bent on stripping her of treasure. Your Fascist Party is small compared to the challenges Keymon has endured before. She has shaken off worse than you, and soon you will also be on the ash heap of history where all tyrants and communists belong. -- Algernon Rufus |

| Message | Our parties were hear long before the CLP arrived and we have seen what Keymon has survived. The CLP will just be a forgotten party that had a little spell of bad weather for KEymon. |
