Even if I was just chooosing the "monarch" I wouldn't pick myself. Deciding who is the right combination of trustworthy and smart is hard but the answer is surely not me (trustworthy is more important btw). I am pretty trustworthy but I am way too lazy and not nearly suffiently riisk averse in action. I "feel" like me being the president and just letting whoever is actually the best make the decisions is safer, but the base rate on this seem too low.
