She was very much of the "velvet glove" school. Whenever she had suspicions of
one of her subjects, she would do him the honor of visiting him. The cost of
housing, feeding and entertaining Queen Bess and her entourage would drive the
guy almost to bankruptcy. After a while, she didn't even have to go visit -
just the suggestion that she might would be enough to bring the subject into
line. Now that's some sophistication in the dictatorship business!

A strong statement indeed. I hope ‘Dear Leader’ in NK doesn’t think you are
denigrating his accomplishments. Or that the NSA doesn’t feel slighted. I
hear Stalin sobbing in his tomb. Cheers J, Dave From:

Elizabeth I would not be relevant. She ran history's most successful police
state. "The spacious days of good Queen Bess" were extremely repressive - and
she got people to love it. Jonathan Hayes From: Richard M. Langworth

A challenging question, Dave. But start with the attached. Somehow I don't
see Gladstone, Walpole or Bess making the cut. --
