| Message | I agree the head of state will be elected BECEAUSE he forms a cabinet, BECEAUSE the people trust him, so he represents a majority of the people. Otherwise... he's useless... |

| Message | No. I think the preamble gives this away; this is being done because of the current situation, and the current office holder's desire to consolidate their power. If anything, it should be loosened - if another party can form a coalition, they should be allowed to. |
