lol, my mom voted for him because he's so old the state won't have to pay his presidents pension for very long after his 7 years are up :laugh: (If he even lasts the 7 years!) He's like a real life leprechaun

Yeah but I just mean in general, the story barely features on BBC News and anything I read leading up the election was just about Martin McGuinness

Our president does feck all anyway, I don't even see the point in us having one. Our Taoiseach is the one who runs the country

No Enda Kenny is the PM,he does all the work. The president does nothing except greet important people,sign laws and "protect" the constitution. The Taoiseach (pm) does all the important things.
