February 15th, 2135.
The day of the Hearings, to consider the charges and petition formally placed by The Honorable Daniel Fowler, Independent Senator from the Great State of Illinois. The long oval hearing-room was filling early; the gallery above was packed by 9:05 in the morning. Teevie-boys all over the place. The Criterion Committee members, taking their places in twos and threes -- some old, some young, some rejuvenated, some not, taking their places in the oval. Then the other Senators -- not the President, of course, but he'll be well represented by Senator Rinehart himself, ah yes. Don't worry about the President.
