Emergency President

Emergency President or One Hour President is a term used to describe the term Richard Stahl as president of the United Earth in 2127. When H5 was arrested along with his entire cabinet, the Guardian declares Stahl president until the new Goverment can call for an election.

Stahl accepts but only for one single Hour. Stahl repeats his Nine Point Plan. He asks the people of United Earth and all planets to start elections to send representatives to the Congress. He asked them to confirm or reject by vote who was already there.

After rejecting being nominated to serve as president until emergency elections could be held, Stahl lost track of time and officially transfered the mantle of presidency one hour and ten minutes after the time the Guardian had declared him president. The interim president had been elected by the members of the United Earth Congress, and said that he would push only two things - new elections and the approval of Stahl's nine point plan.
