Yes, I agree on The President (I was re-reading the history when your first message came through). A fine point is I do still have to opine on whether the president satisfied the winning condition (though not on whether the victory announcement ratified the win). I'll consider your second gratuitous note fairly I hope, it's worth considering (was also refreshing my memory on the "explicitness" ratification language as you were writing the above). -G.
