A blog?

"Edgar" has recently contacted our operatives to let them know that he is starting a blog where he will tell the world how awesome he is and why we should let him rule the world.  He then started listing the reasons why we should let him do so.  In the interest of brevity, we'll include only his top seven.  The list he gave our operatives included 29.

1. "Edgar" is a family man.
2. "Edgar" is smarter than you.
3. "Edgar" has your best interests at heart
4. "Edgar" and "Natasha" are well-traveled in the world of aspiring world leaders and know how to avoid many of the pitfalls
5. "Edgar" and "Natasha" will not require you to vote, but you can if you want to.  It won't make a difference, though, since votes will not be counted.
6. "Edgar" and "Natasha" will do the right thing regardless of what everyone says they should do
7. "Edgar" and "Natasha" will soon have a blog.

At the GNU Public Dictatorship we are nothing if not skeptical that "Edgar" will be able to attract a large audience with a blog, especially when he claims to be smarter than you and unresponsive to your input.  We have successfully used this blog for several years now, but we have succeeded because of your support.  We pledge not to become so out of touch with your needs that we presume to dictate what you will do without due process and meetings of the Board of Dictators!
