The president under SwAc does not have to be directly elected

Idk, I think if ur trying to keep people calm by making it feel like old political institutions people will want to vote directly for the pres, not for a party that will appoint the pres like they do in UK. U can set up a super undemocratic thing like the electoral college to rig it if u want, but people's votes at least should have the name of the person they want to be pres on them, they love that shit.
