You Might Believe I've REALLY Gone Off The Deep End This Time, and Moreover That My Particular 'Pick' is the Height (or rather, Depth) of Treason - to my Own Nation - But I Have A Rather Inconceivable Choice for This Year's (or, perhaps more aptly, this demi/semi-decade's) Soon-to-be Announced NOBEL PEACE Prize Winner. And Whom Do I Pick? You Guessed It, Yes, 'the man himself', and for One and Only One Reason (but I Suggest it's a Pretty Good One): 'For' - as Someone Variously Described as Narcissistic (to an Extreme), Psychotic, Even Pathological (and Much More Besides, Little of it Remotely Flattering Much Less Positive) 'Not (Re)Acting According to Type and Precipitating World War 111' (as Yet, Anyway), Though According to Every Sane Assessment, Evaluation and Prediction He's So Extremely Erratic and Utterly Unpredictable and Unstable, Let Alone Seemingly Uniquely Insecure and Unhinged, He Ought to Have Done So Lickety-Split, Pretty Well Upon Arrival at the White House/in the Oval Office - the Current Commander-in-Chief of the United States of America...And for THAT 'Small' Mercy/Blessing, I Respectfully Suggest Everyone and Everybody Everywhere Ought to Be Supremely Thankful (If Not to Him Directly As Such, At the Very Least to the ONE Holding Everything in Check; 'the One' (as the great Apostle Paul Once Wrote) 'in [Whom] we live and move and have our being')...

The selfsame reason, in fact, I've come to regard Ronald Reagan as a great President...despite every likelihood and prediction by (left-of-centre) scaremongers and the like - and I certainly was doubtless one (if a then silent member) of this populous 'club' - he didn't start World War 111...

despite having every conceivable pretext and excuse for so doing...

But once again, One wielding supreme authority over this little earthly orb - whilst 'employing' the efforts of President Reagan and Pope John Paul the Second in an historic pact and secret alliance which put paid in near record time to the Eastern Bloc - and ultimately the Soviet Union, the U(nited) S(oviet) S(ocialist) R(epublics) itself/themselves - had, I again respectfully suggest, the very last word on the matter...

Praise the LORD!  ('Coz if He hadn't, folk, we wouldn't even be here discussing the matter, would we.)
