[Delta 21]

The Lady of the Lake,
[angels sing]
her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur
from the bosom of the water signifying by Divine Providence that I,
Barry Soetoro, was to carry Excalibur.
[singing stops]

That is why I am your king!

=======================================================

Dan 2:21 And He changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and sets up kings. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding.

[Boogieman]

Listen, strange women lyin’ in ponds distributin’ swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

[mdittmar]

Well you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!
I mean, f I went around sayin' I was an empereror just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me they'd put me away!
