| Message | Whilst I think this would be interesting, and I am not ruling out support for this bill, I think the net effect of this bill would be to decrease the value of proposing legislative bills, and will greatly increase the number of cabinet proposals made each turn. This may be a godd thing, i'm not sure. |

| Message | I believe that the way things are doesnt work... Presidents are forced to make cabinets with parties on the other side of the bench. But i to fear such over the top cabinet proposals. If only any party could propose a cabinet but that cabinet needs to have the apporval of the President. Like it is in most Countries. |

| Message | But wouldn't that system also force Presidents into "making cabinets with parties on the other side of the bench", a situation that you believe is undesirable. |
