"I understand you guys really like the idea of this Republican thing, but have you ever considered MONARCHY? "Yea, don't hate on me too much but hear me out: what did your Roman Republic become when it degenerated? A monarchy. What's the most prevalent government of our times? A monarchy. Therefore, what might be the most stable government at our disposal when we break from England? A monarchy. "I mean, sure: Republics look pretty on paper but have you ever heard of OLIVER CROMWELL? Yea, well, also consider there's been no true Republic as you're suggesting. I mean, look at Venice. They're a Republic but is anyone equal there? No. So Jefferson, Madison, keep doing as you're doing but I think we need to consider our options here better." "Alexander Hamilton, go to bed."
