In reply to # 2031984 by Scott There is no perfect system. I Canada and the UK it takes less than half the popular vote to form a majority government. The US is hindered by the electoral college. Australia has a derivitave of proportional representation which can lead to minority governments constantly.

To solve the problem I should just be appointed King.

King Scott the 1st - hmmmm!

It's like Leslie Nielson describing his sex life in one of the Naked Gun series. It goes on and on and in the end...nothing happens.
