If you could give a superpower to your future political leader, what would it be?
The ability to instantly purify the environment and stop climate change.
Invisibility to reveal and combat corruption at all levels.
Time travel to correct historical mistakes and improve the future.
Infinite wisdom to make perfect decisions on all political matters.
As a professional historian, I can certainly mention a number of mistakes done during the journey. Above all I would make sure that the union would get legal power, with which it can be ensured that the member states take care of their economies and respect EU\\\\\\\'s democratic principles.
