In other words RM if you ruled a country whats your position as a leader?
Are you a president of a country, a dictator, an emporer, a king, a prince?

A terrible one.
I'm too nice. No one would bother electing me because I'd blatantly say, "Well . . . you know, I can't promise much. Perhaps, if you're lucky, maybe I could lower taxes. Maybe." And I couldn't seize power by force . . . I'm not a violent person, so I don't think a revolution would be much of an option.
Ideally I'd be a member of the secret shadow organization that controls the world, like Bill Gates.
Although I suppose that in a short time I shall rule over all of you . . . because I am an elite member of the DNRC (Dogbert's New Ruling Class) and when Dogbert conquers the world, we shall rule over all Induhviduals.

A king of course.
I would rule my country from The Hague (as you all know it). Also logical since The Netherlands is already part Monarchy.

A President. Of course sometimes I just get tired of having to deal with people (especially stupid ones), so I don't know...a dictator might be nice too.

Simply put, not much. But a monarchy has more "rules" that complicate things. One can be a consitutional monarch, an absolute monarch, or a parliamentary monarch. An absolute monarch is like a dictator. A constitutional monarch, less so because they are bound by the rules of their country's constitution. A parliamentary monarch has the least power and is usually more of a figurehead than a real ruler, because they have some sort of relationship to a parliament.

I want to be an empress and take back the British Empire...
Either that, or senator of Naboo, or a princess like princess Leia.

That's why I voted "dictator."

I'd be an Emperor. I think the only way to fix this world is to take it by force. Humanity has proven its stupid to make its own choices.
