José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero
I know him, too. He makes shoes on the side.
Does that mean zapatero means cobbler?

And the prime minister has to go to the Head of
State for permission to do some things, like
dissolve parliament. Our head of state and head
of government rest on the same shoulders.
Boring.

And the Vice-president of the United States is
President of the US Senate.
If one presides, one is President. Spain still has
a King, and is a constitutional monarchy.
