Ideally, that head of state would be an elected president, rather than a hereditary monarch. Indeed, anything worthwhile that a monarch can do, an elected non-executive president can do better – not least because an elected official is much less likely to be undermined by the scandals of pampered offspring or degraded by the inevitable hypocrisy and servility of a royal court.
在理想情况中，这个国家首脑应该是当选总统而不是世袭君主。事实上，任何值得君主去做并且能做的东西，当选非执行总统都能做得更好——因为当选官员因为子不教而饱受丑闻困扰或因为难以避免的宫廷伪善和奴性而堕落的可能性要小得多。
