Reasons I should rule the world.

Frankly I can't do worse than the current chaps.

Luxembourg would be my base of ops, for it is love.

Art would be as integral to education as the '3 rs'. Then when imagination has become a human right,

I'd give the world back.

(I mean it only takes up space)

Postcard Manifesto 0020

2006-09-14T22:26:00.000+01:00

If I were queen of the world, the world would become more just. I'm qualified in that I truly care about people and would set a good example of how to live. Passive entertainment would fall out of fashion -everyone would enjoy creative pursuits, like making zines, sex, singing. The workday would go from 8 to four hours a day. No-one would be super busy and everyone would have time to play with their kids, write a novel, make soup. Gardens would flourish, there would be no more traffic jams and adults would play frisbee.

My name is Vicky. Reasons why I should rule the world, based in the UK.

1) Female -men are rubbish at it.

2) Can control money and temper.

3) My friends/cabinet + I speak a wide range of languages, so could talk instead of attack.

4) Help UK to eradicate poverty. Then we have more people to aid other countries.

5) Ban things that create illness. The we have more healthy people to aid other countries.

6) Compulsory organ donor register (see above).

7) Overseas Aid -focus on housing, health, education. Sending money is wrong -sending goods/help is better.

On the postcard I'd like you to list as few or as many reasons as you like that you and you alone should rule the world. I need your manifestos for something I'm building. You can remain anonymous if you like or stand up and be counted. Either way I want your manifestos.
