1. He doesn't want to be King Arthur?
I suppose some people would want him to be Arthur II.

2. I thought it was about Bush and Blair.
Anyway, the United States already has a King George, so Charles has to pick another name.

4. Nah! The can add something on the end to distinguish between
the two, like "the jug-eared." No that won't work. Dubyah can be "George the Unworthy" and Charles can be "George the Tampon guy" or something like that.

11. The 17th Century Clinton...
One of England's most beloved kings, known for private mischief but a great leader who brought the country back from Cromwell's reign of terror and made it prosper.
