This is ridiculous. The question is-since there have been debates shown on TV, has there ever been another prime minister who has not taken part in a debate?

I'm wondering - is the current page location appropriate. Two points: 1) generally naming standard is to use the highest title someone attained, even if they cease to hold it. Thus [[Juliana of the Netherlands]] was there during her life, not at [[Princess Juliana of the Netherlands]]. 2) My understanding was that in Bulgaria, he is normally called "King Simeon" or "the King" in everyday speech. I think this page ought to be at [[Simeon II of Bulgaria]]. [[User:John Kenney|john]] [[User_talk:John Kenney|k]] 4 July 2005 15:44 (UTC)

First of all, Simeon is not a king. The title of Bulgarian and Russian monarchs is called "tsar". About the second issue-Simeon is a typical Bulgarian name. Do you know other monarchs from other countries carrying the same name?
