Who would you choose as a diplomat/negotiator?

Post by von Neufeld »

Your country has to succeed in critical diplomatic negotiations, unfortunately all the available candidates for the talks have all managed to annoy people in the past. It is your task to select the best candidate. Don't forget that failure in these talks is not an option.
Who will you choose?

With these as my choices for diplomacy, I will just save time and go directly to war.
Something about Libertarianism always bothered me. Then one day, I realized what it was:
Libertarian philosophy can be boiled down to the phrase, "Work Will Make You Free."


In Libertarianism, there is no Government, so the Bosses are free to exploit the Workers.
In Communism, there is no Government, so the Workers are free to exploit the Bosses.
So in Libertarianism, man exploits man, but in Communism, its the other way around!

If all you want to do is have some harmless, mindless fun, go H3RE INST3ADZ0RZ!!
Grrr! Fight my Brute, you pansy!

Jar-Jar Binks, with Beavis and Butthead as the backup. None of the others have character shields, and Binks is so lucky he might actually stand a chance.

Beavis & Butthead of course. They saved the world from a deadly superweapon in "Beavis & Butthead do America", made crude sex jokes in front of Klinton, and survived jumping out of a car on the highway among many other things. With their comedic skills and character shields, nothing is impossible.

Beavis & Butthead, watching the translators struggle to make sense of them would be very amusing.

Easily Chirac.

He's a professional. And as is typical with French diplomacy, he's as likely to be nailed to a position as jelly to a wall.

He'll outmaneuvre the other side pretty easy.

Beavis and Butthead would drive their opposite mad. Then, the other country would send for a new ambassador, whom Beavis and Butthead would also drive to insanity. Ad infinitum...
