Some would say that strange women lying in ponds, distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. That supreme executive power derives from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

I, however, believe you CAN expect to wield supreme executive power because some watery tart throws a sword at you.

Yes, you too can run around calling yourself an emperor if a moistened bint lobs a scimitar at you, and I for one won't lobby to put you away.

Monty Python has studied this political dynamic extensively in their documentary "MP and the Quest for the Holy Grail."
