As an area is ending, I, for one, wish him a good time for the rest of his days and still some energy for atonement. Everybody can see, he has not been in the sun for years. That job would have been to difficult for everybody.

I once saw an interview with Mr. Castro when Spanish journalists asked him would he ever resign or let electors vote him off. He gave them a funny answer that he would gladly do it the day, King Juan Carlos would aspire to the same thing. So please, Juan Carlos, do something bold: Declare Spain a republic and run for president. The Spanish people will afford you that pleasure for sure and for 4 years. You would make for a glorious ending for the Bourbons. More glorious than any other European dynasty so far.
