who is the president or king or emperor of your country?
what would you feel if you are summoned by the president of your country?
how would you feel if you were summoned to appear before the emperor or king of your country?
certainly you would consider it a rare privilege to meet the most powerful and influential person in your country.
what would you wear? would you tell your neighbors?
would you tell the news about it to your friends? how would you react? how would you prepare yourself?
once seeing the most powerful person in your country, what would you tell him / her? what questions would you ask? what issues would you tell?

I am in the U. S. so unfortunately Bush is president. So if I were summoned to see him, I wouldn't be excited.I wouldn't find it a privilege, it would be a chore to see him. And I wouldn't tell anyone I was going to see him.I wouldn't try to tell him anything because he is as stubborn as I am so it wouldn't do any good. but if you had asked me this question when Clinton was in office, it would be completely different.I would nervous and I would find it a privilege and a honor.I would tell everyone.And when I got there I would ask him why his favorite film is High Noon. I know I could ask him about politics but I would rather talk film.

First off he is a republican, That means he is for the rich, not me. second he is an idiot.Like other politicians he tries to seem like a simple man, but with him it isn't an act. Simple is okay but dumb is bad and he seems to both. He has no desire to learn about the world around him. And as a president, that is dangerous. Third, he was given the presidency , he didn't earn it.The two things I do like about him are 1, he is stubborn. I am stubborn and I consider it a asset not a flaw. And 2, he like baseball

It will be an honor to appear before the head of our country. Just migrated here from the Philippines on May. I will ask her to rate herself from 1-10 (10 as the highest) according to the improvement she thinks she contributed to her country during her reign. And yes, I do admire her for being the 2nd lady president in the Philippines and for being a smart woman.

I'm in the UK and we have Queen Elizabeth II as the top dog. If I was summoned to meet her yes I would get dressed up (any excuse to buy a new outfit!) and I imagine I would tell a lot of people about it. As for questions I don't think I would have anything to ask her, because really, she doesn't have that much power. Just an awful lot of money, a few palaces to live in and a generally good life. She's a figurehead if you like. The real power lies with the government so she couldn't change anything anyway.

Our second last Prime Minister was Jean Chretien, and I actually had the chance to meet him. He visited our company, made a speech, and then talked with some of the employees. I didn't think it was a big deal, and I didn't really tell anyone about it.
Our current Prime Minister is Stephen Harper. I don't like him at all, and don't like his government. So I wouldn't be that impressed if I did meet him.

Our president is Georgi Parvanov. He lives in our region, votes here and i often meet him when there is election time.He is natural, opened person and once i have shaked hands with him:-) It was exciting indeed.
But i cant imagine if i have possibility to have closed conversation -what it will be.

the president of my country is Gloria Macapagal Arroyo.I will be happy coz it will be a privelege for me to see her. I will wear formal attire.Maybe, i will to few of my neighbors. And before i go there i will prepare what kind of question i will ask. Like, what are your plans for our country in the future? How would you help poor people to survive in their evryday living? And is it true about the issue of broadband deal?

hehehe. about the Zhing Telecommunications Equipment? that would be a timely question for the hour. that would be wonderful question to ask regarding her plans for the future and for the poor people's survival.
you are certainly concern about our country for asking these questions to our president.
