'It's democracy. With omnipotence. What could possibly go wrong?

A worldwide, presidential-style election campaign. 5 godlike candidates, each able to make any promise a reality.

Freshwater oceans. Thousand year lifespans. Uncapping the speed of light. We’ve never seen election ads like these...but what might we support when we can have whatever we want?

Can any of us be trusted as we cast our vote? (Of course you should trust yourself. It’s other people who would mess this up…right?).' (Author's abstract)
