If I may intercede for a moment.  I do hope someone makes sure the VP can't serve as GM, as well as fix the English in that current amendment.  The lack of "in a cabinet post." is killing me Tongue

Okay, just for you I'll introduce:

Fine, fine. I suppose being careful can't hurt. I'm stopping the final vote.

The President can currently temporarily delegate a certain cabinet's responsibility to another member of the executive... including himself, which I did when I was President and opened the voting booth. I think tmth also did this (lol). So if the Acting President was also serving a cabinet post, it wouldn't be that radically different from what is presently legal.

I don't really like the VP being able to serve in a cabinet post (I voted against that amendment) but I'm willing to accept it as a compromise.

Anyway, I would prefer the following details be specifically included in the amendment:
-Clarify that the GM can not serve any other position.
-You can only serve multiple Cabinet positions, not in addition to any other office (other than VP).
-I would prefer we limit the VP to one cabinet post, but again, adding the VP to the mix wasn't my idea and not something I supported, so I don't particularly care about this aspect. Maybe Kalwejt has an opinion.
