Dictator James

Hello,

The people of this land could not enter the gates of the kingdom this morning without coming across this message:

Welcome

      My name is Dictator James.  I have come to your land to make things better for you.  I have many skills and much power.  I know how a country should run.  You no longer need to worry about elections or making laws.  I will take care of everything. 

      I have renamed this land Superior, for that is what we will be.  Your job is to work hard.  If you do as I ask you will be very happy.  I am very pleased to help your country run smoothly.  Honor me by doing your job.

                                    Your leader,

Dictator James

I came and took over the lands of room 120.  The people were wary of me at first, but I showed them quickly that I was their new leader, and not to be trifled with.  I was enraged when they tried to pledge allegiance to their old flag and their old ways.  They quickly saw the errors in their ways.  Here are a few of the new pledges of allegiance to me written by my subjects:

I pledge allegiance to Dictator James.  He is great and so smart.  For his excellency I am grateful.  To him we respect, always and forever.

I pledge allegiance to my smart, powerful and wise leader.  I wish that he will never fall from his rightful throne.  For he is the best man in this realm and this shall always stay.

And my personal favorite:

I pledge allegiance to Dictator James, to whom I am most loyal to.  I live to serve my majesty's desire and to honor his intelligence.  I am forever in awe of his marvelous strength and his amazing, cunning movements.  I live to serve and admire the greatness, to whom I am forever in debt to, Dictator James.

Ahhh, these peasants learned so fast.  They quickly forgot about their old ways.  Life became more simple for them.  In time, without the distraction of having to think for themselves, they will become more consistent workers.  Our daily calisthenics will make them grow stronger and give them more endurance.  Our three minute jog this morning was, in a word, pathetic.  The push-ups, very weak.  We will improve.  We will live up to the name of our new town, Superior.  We will learn that the blessings of democracy are greatly exaggerated.

Your highness,

Dictator James
