Perhaps this may help you Piratis. There are several forms of proprtional representation.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proportion ... esentation

And I stated " a form of proportional representation " as that is exactly what it is so please don't insult my intelligence.

The form being propsed is based on a cross-voting principle weighted according to the size of each community. Now I think your problem is that the weighting is 66:33 instead of 80:20 or 75:25

I don't think this is a racist principle. I think its only fair that TC's will have a major say in the who the TC VP is just as it is fair that the GC's have the major say in who the GC President is.

I think you need to think about what is best for Cyprus as a whole, rather than what is best for one community over the other. Our history is a mess and you can't jump from a mess to ideal in one step.


You are insulting your own intelligence because you don't seem to understand what is written in the link you gave to me:

Proportional representation (PR), sometimes referred to as full representation, is a category of electoral formula aimed at securing a close match between the percentage of votes that groups of candidates (grouped by a certain measure) obtain in elections and the percentage of seats they receive (usually in legislative assemblies).


So if a party receives 10% of the votes it should receive 10% of the seats. This is what proportional representation means.

Also, the terms "President" and "Vice President" are there to mislead. If what we will have is rotating presidency then the TC will be the president for 1/3rd of the time. This means that for 1/3rd of time Cyprus will be ruled by somebody who does not have the popular support. "Majority rules" is an integral part of any democratic system, but not in the one proposed here. Therefore such system does not qualify as democratic, let alone to offer proportional representation.
