It'd be subversive as all hell, but if there were a strong enough lobby, I'm convinced it could be pulled off. Given the state of affairs, the history, and the frame of mind, any resulting unification would probably also set off further splintering.<br /><br />Guess this is just an election, folks. Not a silver bullet, not an attempt to put Humpty together again. And, whomever is elected, I'm guessing there will be people who don't buy into it.

He and the boy wonder are thick as thieves and Robin is good at coercing large groups to choose the way he wants them to.<br /><br />Politically, it appears to me that Victor is a little bit in the wilderness. He's too much of a rogue figure. He refuses to move to Cincinnati, insists on managing Ministerial Services on a part-time basis, and continues his extracurricular activities (Lifenets). I think he's too overextended and not exemplary enough of the cultural values of UCG to be the figurehead. But effectively, the office of president of UCG has been gutted of all it's power anyway. It's just a figurehead position now and whoever occupies it is just going to be micromanaged by Robin anyway. But still, it's a visible office, and whoever is in it, I would think they would want him to appear exemplary so that the bully pulpit of their sock puppet would still be listened to.<br /><br />But that's just my $0.02.Head Ushernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-90297637001603952162013-04-23T15:49:19.346-07:002013-04-23T15:49:19.346-07:00It's Victors's turn
