Two Years?
I liked both 1 and 2, but I thought it was strange that they would hold an election every two years. It seems like they would have longer terms to avoid conflict (I know it was their tradition, but it should have been a predictable problem even back then).
Even stranger than that is that chairmen are not allowed to run for reelection. Call me crazy, but didn't it seem like Uncle Teng had been chairman for a while?
I guess one term of two years makes some sense since a disgruntled candidate could always wait for the next election. But I don't think you'd be able to run a crime organization very well if everyone knew that you had to leave in a couple years anyway.
Does anyone know if organizations have been actually known to do this?
