Swapping Leaders

 A look at any national news leads to the conclusion, the world is mess. Some countries are in more trouble than others.

As a general statement, I find the small countries like Switzerland and Iceland escape the worse problems, although a baby scandal or two does surface from time to time and seem to be solved in different degrees of satisfaction before the country is destroyed.

Sitting with my cousin and husband discussing the problems in the U.S. France, and U.K. we wondered what would happen if leaders were swapped.

I imagined Joe Biden and Justin Trudeau. That would also be a generational switch. 

What about Macron and Sunak. They both are dealing with a defiant population. Would Macron be able to sooth the British population better than he has the French? Could he improve the British health system?  Would Sunak appreciate his own rebels more after seeing the French ones?

What would be a bigger difference would be if Erdogan wins a post and then swapped with Swiss president Alain Berset. I imagine a wantabe dictator having real problems with a country where the president changes each year, and an all country vote is held at the drop of a 100,000 (or less) citizen petition. Could Berset undo some of the dictator like trends in Turkey?

That's just three examples.
