Aaah, the oft-asked question...  [I haven't been keeping up with recent 
BNW changes, so I might be a little off...]

Many things depend on *how* King Jack goes away;  I mean, violent 
revolution is much different than a "disappearance" or a "contractual 
removal"...

The best one could hope for is the first, a revolution stemming not only 
from the ranks of the deltas, but more important from the masses of the 
regs.  More than deltas, even, the regs are gettin' screwed by King 
Jack's reign of terror -- but the fact that they are more scared of 
deltas makes that a difficult point to get across to them...

In any case, if King Jack vacates that giant sucking sound called 
"leadership" will be heard from all over, and a suitable replacement 
much be found.  If things are done carefully, the wrong person could end 
up ruling, and make everything even worse...

What is needed is a reg to step up.  Sure, us Defiants would love for it 
to be someone from our ranks, and it might even work -- for a while. 
But if a reg comes forward and defends the rights and lives of both reg 
and delta, it will hopefully offset some of the poisonous propoganda 
that Jack's been spouting for years.  'Course, another reg like Jack -- 
only more subtle -- could spell disaster for the future.
