A decision

Over the weekend our last remaining candidate for membership in the GNU Public Dictatorship's Board of Dictators withdrew his name from consideration, making it clear that this year there will be no new additions to the Board.  We would like to note that while most of the candidates would have been easily appointed dictators of any single country, they were not quite prepared yet to rule the world along with us.  In fact, several of the candidates have already begun their own machinations to become lesser dictators in the hopes that with the New Future they can unite their strength with ours and be promoted for their good stewardship.  While we can't promise them any special treatment, we wish them well and hope they will apply next "election" cycle after honing their skills a bit more.
