| Message | Again, you talk about making my bill to much in "my interest." The new parties support it. A government official is not called a 'patrician.' That is a mark from Rome that showed the nobles from the plebes, and that 2 class system should not be effect here. |

| Message | Actually, that is a throwback to a particular civil system where the leader of a citystate or shire was elected by his peers. It was the closest thing to a duly democratically elected mayor in the dark ages in England. |

| Message | That's nice, but I still like PM, and such more. |

| Message | It's so bland though! Can't we figure something out that is unique? |

| Message | Changed 'Patrician' to 'Consul'. The Consul was the highest elected office in the Roman Republic, and was considered a HoG. While two consuls were elected each time (we can't do that) I'm hoping this pleases y'all more. |

| Message | Yeah, we're ok with that one. Consul is a title that i've always just loved. I <3 consul. |
