For that matter, why does the British Royal family still exist?"<br />I thought about it - then told him, because they set a worthy example, by their behavior and words, for the rest of the English speaking nation - an example to emulate, for their nation.<br />Buddy said, "any example?" <br />I told him that every male member of the House of Regina, by long established custom (about two centuries), MUST serve a full term of enlistment in a branch of the British Armed Forces (Army, Royal Air Force, Royal Navy) BEFORE he may be considered eligible to be placed in the line of succession for the Crown.<br />In simple terms, that male member of the Royal Family must show, as explained in Robert A. Heinlein's book (Starship Troopers) that they are prepared to put the welfare or survival of the nation above their own safety.<br />Buddy paused to think about that - he ordered another pint of beer, turned and asked, 'Didnt Prince Harry do a tour in Afghanistan a few years back...'<br />I told him, nearly seven months. On the ground, as a combat air controller.<br />Then I asked him if he thought that THAT standard should apply to every single professional politician in the U.S.<br />His answer: 'Oh F#0k Yes!'<br />God bless Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second.<br />You might see these words again, folks.<br />Cheers,<br />Stilicho.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
