  • Hillary for President!

  • Exactly, that is why there is no point in comparing the two. Apples and Oranges my friend, Apples and Oranges.

  • spzoey, the Swedish monarch can't really be compared to the Executive Branch, because the monarch has no authority to execute policy. He's more like a spokesperson for the country, going to extreme lenghts not to say anything that may be considered even remotely controversial to any citizen.

    In Sweden, the parliament is supposed to keep the government in check, but that doesn't really work since the government is chosen by the parliament, so there's no real checks and balances to speak of.

  • claytongault: Well, figuratively yes. Not to be taken literally of course. I clearly understand the monarch is there for "symbolical" purposes. But you can't compare America and Sweden. The figurative counterpart of the monarch here is the Executive Branch, which is 1 of 3 branches here in our structure of government which it's purpose is to keep the other in checks and balances.

    On another note, I like Sweden, I think it's a beautiful country one that I want to someday visit.

  • spzoey, I don't think it's fair to say that Sweden is "half monarchy, half democracy". While the monarch is actually the head of state, he is largely just a figurehead without any real influence over policy. All the real political power comes from the parliament where the people is represented by political parties (more or less) in proportion to the popular vote.

  • Champion of the Constitution, and a true republican!

    RonPaul2008!

  • Perhaps people are finding out about the true Romney? t r u e r o m n e y . c o m

  • funny and sad in the same time.

  • from my time on the internet i got the feeling of similarity and interaction between real life here and the "matrix", i think alot of people got the same feeling

  • The country of Sweden is roughly the size of California, it's population is roughly 9 million compared to the 36 million in California. The country of Sweden is also a Constitutional Monarchy which means it's half monarchy, half democracy. So it seems to me that there really is no comparison between Sweden and the United states. We are free minded society and that means much much more minds to satisfy.
