Power must be taken. Those ruled must consent. That consent can be coerced, or freely given. The power of a leader comes from that consent.
We must all live within this fortress of consensus that we build together. Build it too quickly and shoddily, and it offers little protection, like a tent. Build it slowly, with care, and it can endure like stone. Quickly choosing a leader offers no strength. No stability. I would rather have no leader than a weak one.
